Physiotherapy is a science-based healthcare profession which views movement as central to health and well being. Physiotherapists aim to identify and make the most of movement ability by health promotion, preventive advice, treatment and rehabilitation. It is a health care profession primarily concerned with the remediation of impairments and disabilities and the promotion of mobility, functional ability, quality of life and movement potential through examination, evaluation, diagnosis and physical intervention carried out by Physical Therapists (known as Physiotherapists in some countries) and Physical Therapist Assistants (known as Physical Rehabilitation Therapists in some countries).


Did you know that you should see a physiotherapist instead of a general doctor after you fracture or break any of your bones.

Cozen's test

The purpose of the Cozen's test is to check for lateral epicondylalgia, or tennis elbow.

Technique

To perform the Cozen's test, the therapist stabilizes the patient's elbow with one hand while the patient is asked to pronate the forearm and extend and radially deviate the wrist against manual resistance of the clinician.  The test is considered positive if it produces pain or reproduction of other symptoms in the area of the lateral epicondyle. It's said positive if a resisted wrist extension triggers pain to the patient. The test is performed with extended elbow.
