What is the different treatments technique used by a sports physiotherapist?
Ice pack applications
Ice can be quite beneficial in reducing swelling and discomfort produced by an injury. Our physiotherapist often employs it as the first step in treating an injury.
Hot pack applications
If the injury does not cause swelling, we recommend using a hot pack kept in a towel to relieve pain and joint or muscle stiffness.
TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator)
This battery-operated gadget sends small amounts of electricity into the skin or just over the injury, providing temporary pain relief.
Ultrasound
This method heats bulky body parts and aids the healing process by sending sound vibrations straight into the tissues.
Massage and stretching
Both are standard physiotherapy procedures for loosening and relaxing muscles, and minimizing tissue adhesions and inflammation.
Range of motion (ROM) – ROM exercises
ROM exercises are beneficial for increasing and maintaining the range of motion of joints.
Strengthening exercises
Weak muscles can develop due to inactivity following an injury, and strengthening exercises are an excellent approach to bulk up, heal, and maintain muscle strength.
