Physiotherapy

Joint physiotherapy, often referred to as physical therapy or physiotherapy, is a specialised branch of healthcare that focuses on the assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal conditions affecting the joints.

​

It plays a crucial role in helping individuals regain optimal joint function, reduce pain, and achieve their specific mobility and activity goals. The duration and frequency of physiotherapy sessions depend on the patient's condition and response to treatment.

 

Our in-house physiotherapy center aims to improve joint function, reduce pain, and enhance overall mobility and quality of life. 

 

Here's an overview of our joint physiotherapy treatment:

Overview

Assessment

A thorough evaluation of the patient's joint condition is conducted by our physiotherapist. This assessment includes examining joint range of motion, muscle strength, flexibility, posture, and any specific joint-related issues.

Treatment Planning

Based on the assessment findings, the physiotherapist develops an individualised treatment plan tailored to the patient's needs and goals. Treatment goals may include pain reduction, restoration of joint mobility, strengthening of muscles, and improvement in functional abilities.

Hands-On Techniques

Manual therapy techniques may be used to improve joint mobility, reduce pain, and address soft tissue restrictions. These techniques can include joint mobilisation, manipulation, and soft tissue massage.

Therapeutic Exercises

Functional Training

​Education

Pain Management

A customised exercise program is designed to strengthen muscles around the affected joint, improve flexibility, and enhance joint stability. Exercises may include stretching, resistance training, balance exercises, and proprioceptive training.

Patients are guided through functional activities and movements that mimic their daily activities, sports, or work requirements. This helps individuals regain their ability to perform routine tasks.

Patients receive education on proper joint mechanics, body posture, ergonomics, and techniques for injury prevention. Guidance on managing their condition outside of therapy sessions is also provided.

The physiotherapist continually monitors the patient's progress, adjusting the treatment plan as necessary to optimise results.

Patients are typically prescribed a home exercise program to complement in-clinic sessions, enabling them to continue their rehabilitation independently.

Techniques for managing pain, including manual therapy, modalities, and therapeutic exercises, are an integral part of joint physiotherapy.
