The Faculty of Rehabilitation and Care
Are you ready for a career in health care？
We can help you develop a helping spirit and equip yourself with the skills of a specialist.
Seijoh builds practitioners ready to lead. Practitioners must develop practical skills backed with reliable knowledge and technical skills. They must have minds at home both in research and education, and above all they must show they have the spirit of a caring human being.
The aim of rehabilitation is to help those with disabilities gain their independence by restoring as much as possible their mobility and reintegrating them into society. The Faculty of Rehabilitation and Care offers special training and guidance in both Physical and Occupational Therapies. The Faculty maintains the necessary curriculum, facilities and machinery needed to equip our graduates with the reliable knowledge they need and develop in them the spirit of caring they require to pursue a career in health care.
What is Physical Therapy?
Physical therapy is used for people who have physical disabilities. It is a science that uses various medical treatments such as exercise therapy, physical therapy and movement training for everyday living in order to maintain and reestablish basic motion abilities (e.g. standing up, standing, sitting, and walking).
What is Occupational Therapy
According to the Japan Association of Occupational Therapists, occupational therapy is used for people who have or may develop physical or mental disabilities to help them obtain a balanced life. Occupational therapists provide treatment with guidance and assistance through the application of various occupational techniques that aid the recovery, maintenance and development of the various life functions.
According to the World Federation of Occupational Therapists, occupational therapy begins with the idea that having a goal to our actions leads to a healthy life. Occupational therapists specialize in health care that guards against disabilities through the promotion, development, recovery and maintenance of the abilities needed for everyday living. The most important part of the occupational therapist’s treatment is the way it gets patients to become more proactive in their own care.
