Abstract:
Numerous aspects of spinal cord injury have undergone extensive research over the years. However, amid this comprehensive exploration, one crucial aspect remains insufficiently emphasized: sexuality. Despite its paramount importance to individuals' holistic well-being, sexuality often receives inadequate attention within rehabilitation programs. In this article, we aim to underscore the significance of addressing this dimension comprehensively, especially given its increasing recognition and exploration in recent years.
