Your opinion about the legitimacy or appropriateness of their claim is just your opinion and has no weight up against them, a very RS. The WHO recognizes World Physiotherapy as the only world body representing the profession and doesn't mention any other. Please stop this OR crusade. -- 401: 1606:, you never answered my question above. What source do you have for not considering World Physiotherapy as the sole world body for the profession? In chiropractic, there are several international bodies because of their internal divisions and differing chiro-religious beliefs, but in PT there is only one international organization for all PTs. What source makes you doubt this? Can you name a competitor to WP? -- 1438:, I can't change the decision above, but we can continue the discussion here. The common usage in the United States is indeed "Physical Therapy". Nearly all other English language nations use "Physiotherapy", and most other languages that approximate these words adapt Physiotherapy to their own languages. Examples are found in Europe. The Scandinavian languages use "Fysioterapi". "Fisioterapia" is Spanish. 425: 1246:. "Physical therapy" is clearly preferred in the USA, but "physiotherapy" is understood. However, "physiotherapy" (or "physio") is used pretty much exclusively in the UK and most people probably wouldn't know what "physical therapy" even was (although they could probably work it out from the context). "Physiotherapy" also appears to be preferred in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India, etc. Per 305: 1535:, I noticed your edits and wonder what source you have to not consider the WCPT/World Physiotheray as THE world body for the profession? I'm an old PT and have never heard of any other international organization for all PTs. That doesn't preclude the possibility of some rogue group trying to claim they represent all PTs in the world, but I have never heard of such a group. Have you? -- 704: 1823:"A survey took place after the GM in 2019 and 78 member organisation took part. 60% agreed World Physiotherapy would be more easily understood by government and educational organisations which will aim to raise the profile of the profession in new and exciting areas.

I don't see a reason you consider this "allied health profession" categorization to be important.

This is in harmony with the practices of other nations, where all lists of AHP include Physiotherapy.

Out of the 121 member organizations, one nation uses Physical Therapy exclusively, and nearly all others use Physiotherapy, although a few of them translate their name to English using Physical Therapy, regardless of what their language says.

If people have a misconception about what an "allied health profession" is, then perhaps that misconception should be addressed in the article about "allied health professions" (AHPs), but I still see no reason to discuss whether physical therapy is an AHP or not within this article. The purpose of

Quite a few Indians and people from Pakistan and Arabic countries care. For years they have vandalized this article. I suspect part of the problem is language. They think that if a profession, in this case PT, is classified as an AHP, then it is not an independent profession. That's BS. In the case

So an article about American PTs would use the American terminology, which is Physical Therapy. By contrast, a general article about the TOPIC, like this one, would favor the most common international spelling in English, and regardless of what that is, the section about the United States would use

This has to do with our job here, which is to document the "sum of all human knowledge" (translated to English) about the PT profession that is written about in RS, and the fact that PT is classified as AHP is part of it. That's all. We don't write summaries here. We cover nearly everything. --

I disagree. I see no reason to mention this AHP concept at all, since it seems to have no clear meaning or implications, especially for most readers. If it has a meaning, the meaning seems to have something to do with the laws or healthcare systems of specific countries, so it should only be

BarrelProof is right about this. In the absence of very strong national ties (like the Secretary of Defense example) we just leave the article title at whatever the first user happened to pick. The Americans get Physical therapy, and the rest of the world gets
