Physiotherapy seeks to alleviate pain, strengthen muscles, enhance mobility and ensure that your treatment plan does not cause you any pain or discomfort.
You must participate in both in-office and at-home exercises for your physiotherapy to be effective.
Good posture, strong muscles, and strong joints help to maintain balance, endurance, and pain avoidance. The best part about this treatment method is that it helps you avoid the negative side effects of prescription medications and surgery.
A physiotherapist is a movement specialist, educated in analyzing mobility issues with walking, running, jumping, bending, stretching, and almost every other form of physical activity.
Pain relief, strengthening, and functional integration are the three levels of physiotherapy. Some people are fearful of physiotherapy because they think it can hurt or negatively affect them, but this is not so. Physiotherapy is not meant to inflict pain; rather, it is meant to reduce or eliminate it entirely.
Once your physiotherapist understands your needs, they will begin developing a personalized plan of care to assist you in relieving pain and achieving your goals. Your physiotherapist will design your rehabilitation program to include exercises that will improve your strength, agility, balance, and overall mobility and an at home exercise plan. They will be just as dedicated to your recovery as you are, and will encourage you to achieve all the goals you outlined in the beginning.
The result of physiotherapy is that you can live the active life you want, free of painful limitations. That can only happen if you apply what you’ve learned in your treatments to the real world.
