Physiotherapy
process
Treatments may consist of one or more of the following
modalities performed either in isolation or more commonly a combination
of the following modalities of treatment:
- Manual Therapy forms the base of our treatment approach. Physio
Absolute has a strong hands on approach. Manual therapy treatments
may consist of soft or deep tissue massage, gentle joint mobilisation
or manipulation, localised tendon or ligament work, strapping
and joint or muscle stretches. Treatments usually last between
30 to 60 minutes.
- Exercises are used to rehabilitate and strengthen bones, joints,
tendons, ligaments and muscles following an injury or to correct
muscle imbalances to optimise biomechanics. The exercises patients
are taught are specific to their needs and are reviewed and
progressed regularly as your body responds to the therapy with
improving strength and flexibility.
- Education is one of the greatest tools we can provide; it
enables you to quickly understand and manage your injury to
achieve absolute recovery and it also ids in preventing the
recurrence of injury.
- Acupuncture is a powerful modality used to modulate pain and
accelerate and enhance the body's natural healing process. Our
physiotherapists are trained to use it acupuncture in a safe
and gentle manner for muscle and or joint pain or problems.
Acupuncture is routinely preformed in conjunction with other
therapeutic modalities and techniques.
