Polio physiotherapy. Physiotherapist treating a child patient who has been paralysed by polio. The pool, where the patient is receiving a form of hydrotherapy, is named 'S.S. Polio'. Polio, also known as poliomyelitis and infantile paralysis, is a childhood disease caused by a virus. Polio epidemics in the early 20th century left thousands paralysed. Vaccines were developed in the 1950s and 1960s.
