Spinal Cord Injury is damage to the spinal cord that results in a loss of function such as mobility or feeling. Frequent causes of damage are trauma and disease. The aim of present study is to assess the effect of physical therapy on Health related Quality of Life (HR-QOL) among persons with spinal cord injury in relation to physical health, psychological health, social relationship, and environmental dimensions with orientation to Indian context. The objectives of the study was to describe the efficacy of physical therapy to respondents, to measure the Health related Quality of life (HR-QOL) of persons Spinal Cord Injury and to evaluate the relationship between socio demographic data, clinical data and Quality of has been considered the “Descriptive research design” for the study.
