Are you suffering with chronic pain?

So, this post is for you. A chronic pain management plan is a personalized strategy to help individuals cope with and reduce the impact of persistent pain on their daily lives.

It involves a multidisciplinary approach, combining various therapies and techniques to address the physical, psychological, and social aspects of chronic pain. The plan is typically developed in collaboration with healthcare professionals and may include medication, physical therapy, psychological therapies, and lifestyle modification.

Physiotherapy can help manage the pain through giving exercises to improve strength and flexibility, postural training, and techniques like heat or cold therapy, massage, or hydrotherapy.

You can have a consult with one of our friendly physiotherapists for an assessment and treatment.

Try our Aquabones class :-)

Arthritis is a general term describing many conditions that cause pain, stiffness and often inflammation in one or more joints.

General regular exercises can improve an arthritic joint by nourishing the cartilage and easing stiffness.

Warm water exercise is particularly helpful, because your body weight is supposed and the resistance of moving through water boosts muscle strength and endurance.

Activities such as walking through water can exercise the joints without placing them under strain.

Trochanteric bursitis, also known as greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS), is a condition where the bursa (a fluid-filled sac) on the outer side of the hip becomes inflamed.
This leads to pain in the hip area, particularly on the outer side of the thigh and sometimes extending to the buttock.
Trochanteric bursitis is a common cause of lateral hip pain and is often associated with inflammation of the tendons (gluteal tendinopathy) around the hip.

To know more about GTPS visit one of our friendly physiotherapists.

These exercises can help strengthen the muscles and correct posture.

What can be missed in an ankle sprain? Did you have an ankle sprain recently?

Ankle sprain is the most common injury but, still it can be miss treated. It could be a 5th metatarsal stress fracture. The severity of ankle sprain depends on the grades.

Ligament injuries can be classified as grade I, II, or III depending on severity. They can also be classified as mild, moderate and severe sprains based on a functional grading system.

Grade I represents a microscopic injury without stretching of the ligament
Grade II has macroscopic stretching, but the ligament remains intact or with a more severe sprain, it can be partially torn
Grade III is a complete rupture of the ligament
Mild and moderate sprains are usually grades I and II. A mild sprain is characterised by the patient's inability to run and jump, difficulty with stair climbing, and presence of discomfort. In this type of sprain, the ligaments are intact.

Moderate sprains require support to walk, there is the presence of significant pain, swelling and bruising.

Severe sprains are grade III sprains where weight bearing is impossible, pain is high and the patient needs further testing in case of ankle fracture. Immobilisation is usually required for 10 or more days and surgery often becomes the treatment of choice.
