Physical Therapy
Focuses on helping individuals regain or improve their physical abilities and mobility. It involves the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of movement dysfunctions and disabilities caused by injury, illness, or other factors. Various techniques such as exercise, manual therapy, and modalities are used to address impairments and promote optimal physical function and quality of life. The goal is to restore, maintain, or enhance movement and overall well-being. Additionally, patients are educated about injury prevention, ergonomics, and healthy lifestyle choices to support long-term recovery and wellness.
Dry Needling
Is a therapeutic technique used to treat muscular pain and dysfunction. It involves inserting thin needles, similar to acupuncture needles, to alleviate pain, improve range of motion, and promote healing. Unlike acupuncture, which is rooted in traditional Chinese medicine and focuses on rebalancing the body’s energy flow, dry needling targets specific muscular issues and is based on modern anatomical and neurophysiological principles. The “dry” in dry needling refers to the fact that no medication or substance is injected through the needle, distinguishing it from techniques like wet needling or trigger point injections.
Sports Massage
Is a specialized form of massage therapy designed to help prepare the body for optimal performance, recover after intense physical activity, and treat injuries. It involves the manipulation of soft tissues (muscles, tendons, ligaments) using various techniques such as deep tissue massage, stretching, and trigger point therapy. Sports massage aims to improve flexibility, increase blood flow, and reduce muscle tension, ultimately enhancing performance and reducing the risk of injuries.
Cupping
Is an alternative therapy that involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. This suction is believed to help increase blood flow to the area, promote healing, and relieve pain. The cups are usually left in place for a few minutes, creating circular marks on the skin that typically fade within a few days. Cupping is often used to treat muscle pain, inflammation, and promote relaxation.
Assisted Stretching
Aims to improve flexibility, range of motion, and overall muscular function. It involves a combination of techniques that target specific muscle groups to lengthen and release tension. Unlike static stretching where you hold a position for a period of time, assisted stretching involves dynamic movements to achieve deeper stretches. The goal is to improve joint mobility, enhance performance, prevent injuries, and alleviate muscular discomfort.
