Empowering Movement: NSIRH Celebrates World Physiotherapy Week

Sep 12, 2025

On 12 September 2025, the National Spinal Injury Referral Hospital, we proudly celebrated World Physiotherapy Week with a free physiotherapy medical camp. ‎The event was officially opened and graciously attended by the Head of Division of Integrated Health Services, Dr. Andrew Muriithi, along with other esteemed hospital staff.

A heartfelt thank you to our distinguished guests from Flamingo Orthopedics, who showcased their display on physiotherapy items. ‎Special thanks to Computech Healthcare for providing the CME session. ‎

We also appreciate Sai Pharmaceuticals for the delightful World Physiotherapy Cake, and Phillips Therapeutics for sponsoring our lunch. ‎Our event received media coverage from the Physiotherapy Council of Kenya and the President of the Kenya Society of Physiotherapists, Henry Opondo, who highlighted the critical role of physiotherapy and physical activity in healthy ageing with a focused look at preventing frailty and falls— emphasizing the power of movement to keep lives strong and independent. ‎

Thank you to everyone who supported and joined us in recognizing the vital role physical therapists play in promoting health, movement, and recovery across all ages.
