Physical therapy (PT), also known as physiotherapy, is a physical medicine and rehabilitation specialty that, by using mechanical force and movements, remediates impairments and promotes mobility, function, and quality of life through examination, diagnosis, prognosis, and physical intervention.

It is performed by physical therapists (known as physiotherapists in many countries).

Disability is an impairment that may be cognitive, developmental, intellectual, mental, physical, sensory, or some combination of these.

It substantially affects a person's life activities and may be present from birth or occur during a person's lifetime.

Old age refers to ages nearing or surpassing the life expectancy of human beings, and is thus the end of the human life cycle.

In October 2016, a highly publicized paper claimed the maximum human lifespan is an average age of 115, with an absolute upper limit of 125 years, but the authors' methods and conclusions are controversial.

Terms and euphemisms for old people include, old people (worldwide usage), seniors (American usage), senior citizens (British and American usage), older adults (in the social sciences), the elderly, and elders (in many cultures—including the cultures of aboriginal people).

A caregiver or carer is an unpaid or paid person who helps another individual with an impairment with his or her activities of daily living.

Any person with a health impairment might use caregiving services to address their difficulties.

Caregiving is most commonly used to address impairments related to old age, disability, a disease, or a mental disorder.

Occupational therapy (OT) is the use of assessment and treatment to develop, recover, or maintain the daily living and work skills of people with a physical, mental, or cognitive disorder.

Occupational therapists also focus much of their work on identifying and eliminating environmental barriers to independence and participation in daily activities.

Occupational therapists work with clients of all ages, ranging from infants to the elderly.

Occupational therapy interventions focus on adapting the environment, modifying the task, teaching the skill, and educating the client/family in order to increase participation in and performance of daily activities, particularly those that are meaningful to the client.

Occupational therapists often work closely with professionals in physical therapy, speech therapy, nursing, social work, and the community.
