Abstract

Occupational therapy and physical therapy are two distinct fields in rehabilitation that were developed for a long time already and continue to evolve as the needs and further research on their efficacy to promote change unfolds. However, despite the increasing number of therapists all over the world, there are still confusions between the two professions, and even more alarming, is that in some areas especially in the developing countries, these fields are not yet fully recognized and understood. The question of, “Do they know us?” still exists. Hence, advocacy movements towards awareness and correcting misconceptions is still relevant and will always be relevant as long as therapists continue to pose their worth in the field of health.
