Welcome Letter

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Order of Physiotherapists in Lebanon, I would like to take this opportunity to
announce The 4th International Day of the National Institute of Physiotherapy - INP that will be
held in the Lebanese Order of Physicians on September 16-17, 2017.

Personally, I do believe that arming yourself by SCIENCE is the best way to overcome all humanity
threats.
Science stands for dignity, professionalism, communication and much love.
Like any other field, Physiotherapy strives to be one of a kind by assuming its responsibilities to
perfection all the way towards the joyful face of medication & therapy.
A truly outstanding exhibit will run concurrent to the conference and will inevitably provide
an excellent forum for networking with participants. State of the art medical equipment and
medications will be exhibited shedding more light on the newest treatment methods to all
participants.

Your contribution to educational and scientific activities is highly observed, and your participation
in this upcoming meeting will be greatly appreciated and acknowledged.

We also assure you that our organizers will spare no effort in meeting your expectations and that
of our participants.

We are confident that you will give this matter careful consideration and thank you in advance for
your support.

Sincerely,

Tony Abboud D.P.T.
