How does our program help people with different conditions?

The foremost benefit of our ortho physiotherapy is the reduction of pain. We use various therapeutic exercises and methods in our ortho-physical therapy. Here are a few techniques we use in our physical therapy at Asa Health Care:

We create an exercise plan that includes mobility, strengthening, balance, and building exercises. You should do the exercises with your therapist to ensure you're doing them right. We also teach our patients home exercises that they can perform.

Our physical therapist uses hot and cold therapy to treat the pain and swelling due to orthopedic conditions. We perform cold therapy after intense exercise sessions to prevent muscle soreness. You can use different equipment to perform cold therapy by yourself at home.

Generally, we use two primarily electrical stimulation devices, TENS and NMES. These devices help reduce pain by blocking the pain receptors using low-voltage electrical current. This therapy also helps in repairing injured muscles.

We also include water therapy in the treatment plan of orthopedic patients. Our physiotherapy uses various exercises that patients perform in the pool or whirlpool. This therapy helps patients to develop endurance and prevent joint issues from worsening.

It is a form of decompression therapy in our ortho physiotherapy. It relieves the pressure on the damaged or compressed joints. This therapy is helpful for people with pain in the lower back, shoulder, or neck.
