An essential aspect of physiotherapy treatment is rehabilitation, which may be required in order to re-educate a person to enable them to safely return to sport, work or leisure activities.
For example, sitting for prolonged periods of time at a VDU requires good postural alignment whereas returning to sport requires specific fitness.

Following injury and periods of immobilization, patients may be affected by muscle weakness and loss of function.
Physiotherapists use various techniques to rehabilitate and re-educate patients, such as:
- Teaching personalized exercise programmes
- Mobilizations
- Soft tissue massage
- Stretching
- Proprioceptive training
