A physiotherapy assessment involves a detailed history taking followed by a physical examination. A physical exam may include observation of movement, assessment of range of motion, strength, stability, and biomechanics.

The ultimate goal of physiotherapy is to promote a return to an active lifestyle as well as to reach a maximum level of function.
