You may be able to find relief and healing through physiotherapy.
After suffering from an acute injury or having surgery, a person will likely be dealing with a lot of pain and/or decreased mobility and stiffness. To ensure they heal properly, manage their pain, manage their edema, and maintain their mobility, they may seek physio (also known as physiotherapy).
Physio is a holistic, natural therapy known for healing injuries and ailments through movement. There is little to no distinction between physio and physical therapy; however, some professionals say that while physical therapy typically incorporates both hands-on therapy and exercise, physio is a solely a hands-on, manual approach. A physiotherapist manually moves you or teaches you movements that will help you heal yourself.
Physio is often used for acute injuries, repetitive strain, sport injury, and post-surgery healing, but it is useful for far more. People of all ages and mobilities can benefit from physio, including children with paediatric conditions like developmental delay, people with dizziness and vertigo, those with lymphedema, elders with arthritis, amateur and professional athletes who have sustained sports injuries, women who need pre- or post-natal care, and more.
