In this report, the physiotherapy equipment market is segmented on the basis of product, application, end user, and region. Based on product, the physiotherapy equipment market is divided into two major segments, namely, equipment and accessories. The equipment segment accounted for the largest share of the physiotherapy equipment market in 2021. Market growth is largely driven by factors such as the rapidly aging population, the growing adoption of healthier lifestyle habits, as well as the increasing incidence of injuries and chronic diseases. The equipment segment is further segmented into electrotherapy equipment, ultrasound equipment, exercise therapy equipment, heat therapy equipment, cryotherapy equipment, combination therapy equipment, continuous passive motion therapy equipment, shockwave therapy equipment, laser therapy equipment, magnetic pressure therapy equipment, traction therapy, and other physiotherapy equipment (hydrotherapy and vacuum therapy). Electrotherapy equipment dominates the market with a share of about 25.6% in 2021, owing to their significant use in the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions with minimal/no side effects.
Based on the application, the physiotherapy equipment market is segmented into musculoskeletal applications, neurological applications, cardiovascular and pulmonary applications, pediatric applications, gynecological applications, and other applications (including sports and palliative care). In 2021, the musculoskeletal applications segment accounted for the largest share of physiotherapy equipment market, which can be attributed to the rising incidence of musculoskeletal disorders, growth in the geriatric population, and the increasing number of accidents.
Based on End User, the physiotherapy equipment market is segmented into physiotherapy & rehabilitation centers, hospitals, home care settings, physician offices, and other end users (community health centers and elderly care facilities). In 2021, physiotherapy & rehabilitation centers accounted for the largest share of the physiotherapy equipment market. This can primarily be attributed to the wide usage of physiotherapy equipment in these centers and the increased availability of specialized physiotherapists in such facilities.
In 2021, Europe accounted for the largest share of the global physiotherapy equipment market. The large share of this regional segment can be attributed to the rising geriatric population, increasing inclination for active lifestyles, the penetration of physiotherapy services, and favorable healthcare reforms. The Asia Pacific market is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Market growth in the Asia Pacific is attributed to the growth in emerging markets such as China and India, that are expected to present significant growth opportunities for the major stakeholders in the physiotherapy market.
