Exercise Therapy
It involves movement prescribed to correct impairments, restore muscular and skeletal function and/or maintain a state of well-being. The scientific evidence demonstrating the beneficial effects of exercise is indisputable, and the benefits of exercise far outweigh the risks in most adults. For most adults, an exercise program including aerobic, resistance, flexibility, and neuromotor exercise training is indispensable to improve and maintain physical fitness and health.
Manual Therapy
Manual therapy is defined as : “Skilled hand movements intended to produce any or all of the following effects: improve tissue extensibility; increase range of motion of the joint complex; mobilize or manipulate soft tissues and joints; induce relaxation; change muscle function; modulate pain; and reduce soft tissue swelling, inflammation or movement restriction.”
Treatment may include moving joints in specific directions and at different speeds to regain movement (joint mobilization and manipulation), muscle stretching, passive movements of the affected body part, or having the patient move the body part against the therapist’s resistance to improve muscle activation and timing. Selected specific soft tissue techniques may also be used to improve the mobility and function of tissue and muscles.”
Manual physical therapy is a specialised form of physical therapy delivered with the hands as opposed to a device or machine. It has an important place in Physiotherapy and when used appropriately by practitioners is a very effective set of tools literally at our fingertips.
Electrotherapy
PEMF Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMFT, or PEMF therapy), also known as low field magnetic stimulation (LFMS) uses electromagnetic fields in an attempt to heal and reduce pain.
- Short wave diathermy (S.W.D) current is a high frequency alternating current. The heat energy obtained from the wave is used for giving relief to the patient.
- Ultrasound therapy (U.S) is a therapeutic modality that has been used by physiotherapist . Ultrasound is applied using a round-headed wand or probe that is put in direct contact with the patient’s skin. Ultrasound gel is used on all surfaces of the head in order to reduce friction and assist in the transmission of the ultrasonic waves. Ultrasound can produce many effects other than just the potential heating effect. It has been shown to cause increases in tissue relaxation, local blood flow, and scar tissue breakdown. The effect of the increase in local blood flow can be used to help reduce local swelling and chronic inflammation.
- Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (T.E.N.S) is the use of electric current produced by a device to stimulate the nerves for therapeutic purposes. TENS, by definition, covers the complete range of transcutaneously applied currents used for nerve excitation although the term is often used with a more restrictive intent, namely to describe the kind of pulses produced by portable stimulators used to treat pain. The unit is usually connected to the skin using two or more electrodes.
- Interferrential Current Therapy (I.F.T) is a noninvasive therapy indicated for the symptomatic relief from, and management of, chronic intractable pain and post-surgical and post-trauma acute pain. It provides a safe and effective alternative to pharmacological approaches to pain control. IFC has minimal side effects and is non-addictive. When two medium-frequency circuits of slightly different cycles per second are superimposed, interference is formed which blocks the transmission of pain messages at the spinal cord level. This interferential stimulation is concentrated at the point of intersection, deep in the tissues, between the electrodes.
- Paraffin Wax Bath (P.W.B) or also known as paraffin wax heat therapy bath is one of the moist heat therapy modalities that we use in our physiotherapy clinics. This modality speeds healing, and soothes soft tissues and muscle pains
- Laser Therapy the term LASER is an acronym for the Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. In simple yet realistic terms, the laser can be considered to be a form of light amplifier – it provides enhancement of particular properties of light energy.
- Cervical Traction
- Galvanic & Faradic Stimulation is a form of electrotherapy which involves the use of direct current applied to specific areas of the body which help to stimulate muscle contraction.
Bare Foot Rehabilitation
It includes barefoot work out which increases foot strength , hip strength , improves balance and stabilization, decrease chances of tissue injury thereby reducing ankle , knee and back pain and if full body integration is used it can even reduce shoulder pain.
Neuro Dynamic solutions
Mobilisation of the nervous system is an approach to physical treatment of pain. The method relies on influencing pain physiology via mechanical treatment of neural tissues and the non-neural structures surrounding the nervous system.
The body presents the nervous system with a mechanical interface via the musculoskeletal system. With movement, the musculoskeletal system exerts non-uniform stresses and movement in neural tissues, depending on the local anatomical and mechanical characteristics and the pattern of body movement. This activates an array of mechanical and physiological responses in neural tissues. These responses include neural sliding, pressurisation, elongation, tension and changes in intraneural microcirculation, axonal transport and impulse traffic.
Because many events occur with body movement, in addition to tension, the term ‘neural tension’ is incomplete and requires expansion to include both mechanical and physiological mechanisms. ‘Neural tension tests’ may be better described as ‘neurodynamic tests’. Pathomechanics and pathophysiology in neural tissues and their neighbouring structures may be regarded as pathodynamics.
Neurodynamics solutions includes management of all nerve related disorders like sciatica, carpel tunnel syndrome , upper limb radiating pain, neuropathies etc.
Taping
It is the process of applying tape directly to the skin in order to maintain a stable position of bones and muscles . It is a procedure that uses tape, attached to the skin, to physically keep in place muscles or bones at a certain position. This reduces pain and aids recovery. Taping is usually used to help recover from overuse and other injuries. The general goals of taping are to restrict the motion of injured joint, compress soft tissues to reduce swelling, support anatomical structure involved in the injury, secure dressing or bandages, protect the injured joint from re-injury, and protect the injured part while the injured part is in the healing process.
Myofascial Release
Myofascial release is useful for treating skeletal muscle immobility and pain by relaxing contracted muscles, improving blood and lymphatic circulation, and stimulating the stretch reflex in muscles.
Myofascial release focuses on reducing pain by easing the tension and tightness in the trigger points. It’s not always easy to understand what trigger point is responsible for the pain. Localizing pain to a specific trigger point is very difficult. For that reason, myofascial release is often used over a broad area of muscle and tissue rather than at single points.
Cupping
Cupping therapy is a form of alternative medicine in which a local suction is created on the skin with the application cups. We practice DRY cupping at our clinic.
IASTM
Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) is a popular treatment for myofascial restriction. IASTM uses specially designed instruments to provide a mobilizing effect to scar tissue and myofascial adhesions.
