physio means body and therapy means treatment. So physiotherapy means treatment of the human body.
According to WHO,
" Physiotherapist asses, plan an implement rehabilitative programs that improve or restore human motor functions, maximize movement ability, relieve pain syndrome, and treat or prevent physical challenges associated with injuries,diseases and other impairments. They apply a broad range of physical therapy and techniques such as movement, ultrasound, heating laser and other techniques. They may develop and implement programs for screening and prevention of common physical ailments and disorders."
Per Henrik Ling invented this treatment method and founded the Royal Central Institute of Gymnastics in 1813 for manipulation and exercise. So I think that he is the father of physiotherapy.
This is a highly educated health care profession who can help patients to reduce pain, and improve or restore mobility. Even they can help patient to relieve severe symptoms without surgery in many cases and often reducing the need for long term use of prescription medications.

We need to know that physiotherapists examine each patient individually and develop a treatment plan, using proper treatment method and techniques which help to move, reduce pain, restore functions, and prevent disability.
Physiotherapists provide a care for people in a various settings like hospitals, private practice, outpatient clinics, schools, sports and fitness facilities.
