Scope of Services / Treatment available
- Range of Motion (ROM) Exercises – Frequently moving the affected joints and muscles will prevent muscle atrophy and related postural problems. ROM exercises are used by a range of healthcare practitioners.
- Soft Tissue Mobilization – A Soft tissue massage helps circulate blood and lymph flow, and reduce tissue swelling around the inflamed joints.
- Electrotherapy – Electrotherapy is a more recent evolution of energy-based physiotherapy techniques. In this form of treatment, electrical stimulation is provided by attaching electrodes to the skin. This is most commonly used for patients suffering through paralysis and reduced range of motion.
- Cryotherapy and Heat Therapy – Heat therapy includes the application of hot packs or even paraffin wax. Cryotherapy may involve an ice pack application or an ice massage. Sore and often stiff muscles are often due to a result of long desk based jobs and also professional athletes so this is the prefect therapy for them.
- Kinesio Taping – Kinesio tape can be applied straight to the skin and is a great way to stabilize the joints and muscles while the patient undergoes treatment.
- Therapeutic Ultrasound – Ultrasound frequency provides a gentle method for targeting damaged tissue with soft beams. Like a mini massage, the sound waves of the ultrasound stimulate and are absorbed by the ligaments, tendons, and fascia.
