Comment
The above research reviews demonstrate that the use of a wide variety of eastern and western complementary therapies are now being studied for use in the treatment and rehabilitation of injured, disabled and ill people. Based upon my personal experience of injury, and the difficulties I have encountered in obtaining the appropriate physical therapy for rehabilitation, I can only hope that the results of this research gets widely read and implemented internationally.
