| book description |

This book thoroughly examines all treatment options for gastrointestinal disorders based on physical therapy. While numerous publications explore the impact of physical therapy on anorectal disorders such as fecal incontinence, defecation disorders, or proctalgia, there is increasing evidence supporting the therapeutic options of physical therapy for other digestive disorders, including dyspepsia, gastroparesis, chronic vomiting, or cholelithiasis, among others. This book presents updated evidence of physical therapy as a therapeutic option for various gastrointestinal disorders beyond anorectal disturbances. Each of the 15 chapters included in this volume focuses on a specific disorder, providing a clear description of the therapeutic techniques employed as well as the results reported in the literature. Aimed primarily at physical therapists and clinical practitioners, particularly those specializing in gastroenterology and coloproctology, this book offers essential information on the effectiveness of diverse physical therapies for optimal management of functional disorders.
