LASER THERAPY

Laser therapy in physiotherapy uses focused light energy to stimulate cellular repair and healing, acting as a non-invasive treatment for musculoskeletal and soft tissue injuries. This process, known as photobiomodulation, helps to reduce pain and inflammation by increasing cellular metabolism, promoting faster healing and recovery for a variety of conditions like muscle strains, tendonitis, and osteoarthritis. It is often called Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) or cold laser therapy because it generates little to no heat.

PLANTAR FASCIITIS

Physiotherapy is a highly effective treatment for plantar fasciitis, involving a combination of exercises, manual therapy, and education to reduce pain and prevent recurrence. A physiotherapist will create a personalized plan that includes stretching, strengthening, and improving the biomechanics of the foot and lower leg.

Treatments often include exercises to stretch the calf and plantar fascia, strength training for the foot and surrounding muscles, and advice on supportive footwear or orthotics.

CUPPING

Cupping in physiotherapy is a technique that uses suction cups on the skin to improve blood flow, relieve muscle tension, and promote healing. It can be used to treat conditions like back and neck pain, headaches, and other musculoskeletal issues. There are two main types: dry cupping, which involves placing cups to create suction, and wet cupping , which may also involve minor skin punctures to draw out a small amount of blood after suction.

QUADS MUSCLES STRAIN

Physiotherapy for a quadriceps strain involves a staged approach that includes initial pain management, followed by exercises to restore range of motion, strength, and flexibility, and finally, functional training to return to activity.

A physiotherapist will assess the severity, provide a home exercise program, and use treatments like manual therapy and stretching, with a gradual progression to strengthen the muscle and prevent re-injury.

ELECTRO DRY NEEDLING

Electro dry needling is a physiotherapy technique that combines dry needling with electrical stimulation to treat musculoskeletal pain by deactivating trigger points, reducing muscle tension, and promoting healing. In this method, fine needles are inserted into specific muscle knots and connected to an electrical current, which causes involuntary muscle contractions to relax the muscle, reduce pain, and increase blood flow. This is often part of a larger physiotherapy plan that includes other treatments like stretching and exercises.

ULTRASOUND THERAPY FOR ANKLE SPRAIN

Ultrasound is not proven to be effective for treating ankle sprains, with reviews finding that it does not significantly improve pain, swelling, or function. While some clinicians believe it may help healing by increasing blood flow, scientific evidence supporting therapeutic ultrasound for ankle sprains is limited and inconclusive. Instead of therapeutic ultrasound, RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) and physiotherapy are recommended, and ultrasound imaging is sometimes used to diagnose the extent of the injury.

SHOULDER PAIN AND ELECTRO DRY NEEDLING

Electrodry needling (or dry needling with electrical stimulation) is an effective and safe technique for treating shoulder pain, particularly when used as part of a comprehensive physiotherapy program that includes exercise and manual therapy. While it may provide clinically significant improvements in pain and disability, evidence suggests it is not statistically significantly more effective than conventional physiotherapy alone.

STRAIGHT LEG TEST

A seated variation of the straight leg raise (SLR), known as the Bechterew test or sitting SLR test, is a diagnostic test used by physiotherapists to assess for sciatica, a condition often caused by nerve root irritation or a herniated disc in the lower spine.
