Therapeutic approaches include both medicinal and non-medicinal methods, such as lifestyle changes, physiotherapy, and others. The main goal of this field is to improve the overall health of the patient and alleviate the symptoms of the disease. Therapists are involved in the management of many diseases and are often primary healthcare providers who, when necessary, refer patients to other specialists.
