Stand by The Maltese Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine.

With the aid of advanced technologies, this organsiation strives to empower patients and their families to reach higher levels of function and independence, to transform disability into ability.

It is estimated that one in every seven people today suffers from some form of disability, leading to a reduction in independence and quality of life.

Fortunately, recent scientific progress and ever-advancing technologies have been revolutionary in allowing people with disabilities to live long and happy lives, giving them more freedom of mobility and independence.

Using various cutting-edge technologies such as advanced prosthetic limbs, electrotherapy, ultrasonography and virtual reality devices, healthcare professionals in the field of physical and rehabilitation medicine have been making strides to reduce disability burden and hasten the recovery journey.

Now you have the opportunity to interact with some of these technologies and meet therapists, doctors, and people with lived experience who use these technologies daily.
