Providing Therapy and Recommendations
Therapy for chronic pain will differ from client to client, since the sources of chronic pain are so varied. It’s important to remember that while many types of chronic pain cannot be physically cured, they can be successfully treated. At Physio Art, we seek to provide this treatment for chronic pain as well as work with you to find methods to prevent the pain from progressing or affecting other parts of the body.
Our experienced practitioners can use a variety of treatments to help treat your chronic pain. Some of these treatments are manual therapy, massage therapy, and acupuncture. Manual therapy and massage help to stretch and manipulate body tissue to relieve stiffness and pain, increase circulation, and promote relaxation. This can help treat pain and increase mobility in many patients.
Physiotherapists can also make a number of recommendations to help with your pain management in daily life. Chronic pain affects your daily life, so often, treatment has to permeate your entire life. Maintaining a healthy weight or doing stretches or exercise daily can do wonders for your recovery and treatment.
While medication is common to treat chronic pain, there are a number of other alternative methods that are available as well that your physiotherapist can consult with you about. Various types of exercise that the client is able to do help to reduce pain in both the short and long term.
Self-management of chronic pain is becoming increasingly popular and has proven effective for many patients. This involves patients learning to think, feel, and act well despite the pain. With this method, open communication between doctors, physiotherapists, and the patient is absolutely necessary. At Physio Art, we specialize in providing an open relationship and instigating dialogue to find out what’s best for you.
We want to restore your body to complete wellness. With us, you can use pain management treatments to return to your highest level of functioning.
