PHYSIOTHERAPY

The primary goals of physiotherapy include:

Pain Management: Physiotherapists use techniques such as therapeutic exercises, manual therapy, and modalities like heat or cold therapy to reduce pain and discomfort.
Improving Mobility: Physiotherapists work to restore and enhance joint range of motion, muscle strength, and flexibility.
Restoring Function: Physiotherapy helps individuals regain their ability to perform daily activities, such as walking, dressing, and bathing, which may have been affected by an injury or medical condition.
Preventing Disability: Physiotherapists can design exercise programs and provide education to prevent the development of disabilities or chronic conditions.
Health and Wellness Promotion: Physiotherapists often provide guidance on maintaining a healthy lifestyle and preventing injuries through exercise and proper body mechanics.

Physiotherapists assess each patient's specific needs and develop personalized treatment plans to address their unique challenges and goals.

They may use a variety of techniques and tools, including:
Therapeutic Exercises: Customized exercise programs to improve strength, flexibility, and balance.
Electrotherapy: The use of electrical stimulation for pain relief or muscle stimulation.
Heat and Cold Therapy: Applying heat or cold to affected areas to reduce inflammation or relax muscles.
Assistive Devices: Recommending and teaching the use of assistive devices like crutches or walkers.
Education: Providing guidance on self-management, proper body mechanics, and home exercises.
