Middle East University hosted a comprehensive medical day entitled “Your Physical Wellness on Campus”, an initiative organised by the Middle East University Centre for Physical Therapy in collaboration with the Faculty of Allied Medical Sciences. Attracting a broad spectrum of healthcare providers, the event aimed to raise health awareness and embed the principles of integrative care within the university environment.
The proceedings featured an array of specialised departments, encompassing orthopaedics, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and prosthetics and orthotics. Furthermore, dedicated sections for nursing, nutritional science, and psychological support were provided.
Complementing these clinical services, the event showcased cutting-edge advancements in rehabilitative technology through partnerships with leading medical equipment firms, offering a glimpse into the future of physical therapy and patient recovery.
In addition to these technological displays, the medical day facilitated free screenings and clinical assessments conducted by seasoned specialists. These included orthopaedic consultations, functional therapy sessions, and mental health awareness workshops. Participants also benefited from advanced diagnostic tools, such as pedobarography (foot pressure mapping) for gait-related issues and body mass index (BMI) analysis, followed by bespoke nutritional guidance.
