Orthopaedic injuries can have a significant effect on a person’s mental and physical health. The road to recovery from knee injuries, back pain, neck pain and other ailments often requires more than just rest or a trip to the doctor’s office.

Orthopaedic injuries cover a broad range of ailments affecting the bones, joints, ligaments, nerves, tendons, and muscles that make up the neuromusculoskeletal system. These injuries, whether due to degenerative changes, trauma, or misuse, can severely limit your capacity to carry out daily tasks and enjoy a satisfying life. Our team uses physiotherapy as part of the treatment for orthopaedic injuries.
Physiotherapy is a proactive strategy that enables you to actively participate in your rehabilitation process together with hands-on manual therapy techniques to add to your health care team to possibly reduce the need for medications or surgery. Using physiotherapy to treat orthopaedic injuries can have the following benefits:
- Pain management: Pain from an orthopaedic injury can vary greatly, from a slight soreness to excruciating anguish. To reduce pain and increase comfort, we use a variety of methods, such as manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and modalities like heat or cold therapy.
- Regaining Mobility and Functionality: Orthopaedic injuries often result in a loss of mobility. With focused exercises and stretches, our physiotherapy therapies seek to restore strength, flexibility, and range of motion.
- Preventing Recurrence: One of the main objectives of treatment for orthopaedic injuries is to avoid injury recurrence, in addition to aiding in the healing process. We can help you reduce risk factors and preserve optimal musculoskeletal health by providing instruction on appropriate body mechanics, ergonomics, and customized exercise regimens.
