Exercise Therapy

Exercise Therapy

Exercise Therapy

 A regimen or plan of physical activities designed and prescribed for specific therapeutic goals. Its purpose is to restore normal musculoskeletal function or to reduce pain caused by diseases or injuries. 

Manual Therapy

Exercise Therapy

Manual Therapy

 Manual Therapy is any “hands-on” treatment provided by the physical therapist. 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.

Electrotherapy

Shockwave Therapy

Manual Therapy

 Electrotherapy is a form of medical treatment, which uses small electrical impulses to repair tissue, stimulate muscles and increase sensations and muscle strength. There are several different forms of electrotherapy; these include ultrasound, interferential therapy, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), laser therapy and muscle stimulation. Ultrasound uses sound waves to speed up the healing process, while interferential therapy and TENS reduce pain by manipulating the nerves which reduces the sensation of pain and produces a tingling feeling. Laser therapy is sometimes used to repair damaged tissue; using lasers means the treatment can be both accurate and intense. 

Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave Therapy

 Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that involves creating a series of low energy acoustic wave pulsations that are directly applied to an injury through a person’s skin via a gel medium.  Used for the treatment of chronic conditions, lingering injury, or pain resulting from illness.     Shockwave therapy is most suited for people who have chronic tendinopathies (commonly referred to as tendinitis) which haven't responded to other treatment. These include: tennis elbow, achilles tendon pain, rotator cuff, plantar fasciitis, jumpers knee, calcific tendinitis of the shoulder, heel spur, chin splints, wound healing and scar tissue. These could be as a result of sport, overuse, or repetitive strain.
