Overcome Pain and Prevent Injuries Using Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy takes a holistic approach to healing. It goes beyond one condition or injury and considers the patient’s general lifestyle and how it can be involved with the treatment. Physiotherapy for back pain or athletic injuries is about a patient’s education, empowerment and awareness of their health. Physiotherapists make use of natural physical methods to restore and promote your well-being. They not only help patients recover from illnesses and injuries, but also help in maintaining good health so that everyday tasks can be completed without any problem.

Physiotherapy is recommended for chronic pain management as it not just treats the issue, but the source. Physiotherapists look for areas of weakness or stiffness that might be adding stress to the areas of your body already hurting. Those areas will be treated with special exercises so that pain is relieved and flexibility improved.

In a physiotherapy session, you might do a mix of the following to overcoming pain:

• Strengthening exercises– These include squats, lunges and push-ups. You might also work on your core muscles, along with other parts of your body. These exercises are aimed at strengthening your muscles and enhancing mobility.
• Low-impact aerobics training– These workouts typically increase the heart rate, but they are quite easy on the joints. These are done before strengthening exercises so that your body is warmed up.
• Pain relief exercises – These exercises specifically target those areas of your body where you are experiencing pain. It might be your joints, ankle, wrist or your back. With the help of these exercises, you can become more flexible and stronger.
• Stretching exercises – Stretching is great for maintaining flexibility and balance. It can help you overcome problems like, tightness in the back of your leg. Stretching can be done before and also after working out.

Additionally, physiotherapists use heat and ice packs for patients who come to a sports injury physiotherapy clinic with inflamed muscles or joints. They also massage those areas for pain relief. In some cases, TENS is used to send a low-voltage electric current to the area where it hurts as it offers pain relief as it blocks the pain messages being sent to the brain. Ultrasound is also used to send soundwaves to the injured area which promotes tissue repair.

Management of pain is only one aspect of physiotherapy. This branch of restorative medicine is well-known for preventing injuries as well. Since physiotherapy exercises make the body much more flexible than before and treat the root of the problem, you can expect your overall well-being to have improved manifold. You might also be able to do activities that you found difficult before. Also, physiotherapy does not have any age limit. It is open to everyone wanting to improve the way they move.
