Variations Of Physical Therapy Treatments & How They Work
Acupuncture Therapy
Treats the pathway of pain by needling in an area different from the trigger point. Effective in treating tension headaches, repetitive chronic disorders or any muscular related pain.
Aquatic therapy
Hydrotherapy is practiced in a pool of water, commonly warm water to help the muscles relax. It is great for patients who experience difficulty in exercising due to weight-bearing pain. It increases flexibility and reduces joint pain and swelling.
Dry needling
A therapeutic remedy that requires a certification to perform. An intramuscular stimulation focused on relieving trigger points for pain relief. As the needles get placed, tightness and spasms are alleviated; decreasing recovery period.
Edema control
Dropsy is achieved when a patient is moving, to move the extra fluid (which causes swelling) to migrate from the patient’s limbs back to their heart.
Electrical stimulation
Electrotherapy is used to strengthen muscles, improve blood circulation and block pain signals. It uses pulses to force the muscle to contract, in increasing muscular endurance.
Heat and cold therapy
In case of any muscular stiffness or tightness, heat and ice therapy are great options for inflammation, fatigue control and soreness. Know when you should use heat/ice therapy; avoid warm compresses after workouts as it may increase inflammation.
Floor exercises
Carrying out these exercises in a consistent manner will help the patient with stability, independence and strength, especially for patients with orthopedic related issues.
Manual therapy
The physiotherapist will manually treat or massage your injuries without the use of technology. It decreases the tension and pain built up and increases blood flow.
Motion or gait training
Motion training is generally done after joint replacements or overuse injury. It eliminates future limitations and restores movement. This training can also be used from those who suffered neurological trauma inhibiting proper movement such as walking, extending the knee or hip.
Stabilization and balance training
In vestibular therapy we focus on strengthening and relieving pain in the joints, knee, ankle and foot. Balance training is effective in increasing control and strength in weak muscles which will decrease risk of fall and injury.
Ultrasound Therapy
A technique designed for pain management and relief. It achieves results by deep heating strains, sprains or tendonitis.
Weight training
Weight training is often seen paired in treatments for osteoporosis patients (weakened bones). Weight training can increase bone density decreasing chances of a fracture when patient fall or experience accidents. It also strengthens muscles, which helps with your balance.
