How it's used
People often refer to the professional by adding 師 at the end, creating 物理治療師. It is common to use the verb 做 before this term when talking about attending sessions, rather than using a verb meaning to receive or undergo. The term is strictly used for the medical profession and is not used to describe general exercise or massage.
Examples
He needs to go for physiotherapy after the surgery.
