Physical Therapy
At Variety Health we use the following properties to heal you:
- Heat & Ice
- Electric Stimulation
- Chiropractic techniques
These factors combined with your usual therapy techniques yield surprising results. While therapy may be new to you, much like acupuncture, it has a lot of history backing it up.
Sports Therapy
Sports therapy differs from every day injuries as athletes regularly have high demand on their bodies.
Sports therapists have a strong background in orthopedics (therapy involving the musculoskeletal system) and work with athletes of all levels as well as the average active citizen.
Occupational Therapy
Neuro-musculoskeletal System is the type of ailment most associated with physiotherapy.
When you experience back pain, sports injuries, injuries from a vehicular accident, slip and fall or arthritis, this is included in the neuro-musculoskeletal system.
Pediatric and geriatric physiotherapy can fall heavily into this category due to physical birth defects and fall-related injuries.
Additional Treatments
Shoulder
Tears in the rotator cuff are a common shoulder complaint. A stiff joint limiting mobility is called a “frozen” shoulder and is equally problematic.
Hip
Your hips can become inflamed and experience muscle strains. This generally happens from overuse since the hip is a part of our core.
Wrist
Sports using the wrist such as basketball make you susceptible to injury. Sprains, tendonitis and even arthritis and carpal tunnel can occur. It is best to receive regular treatment to catch these before they happen.
Elbow
The elbow experiences the famous injury dubbed “tennis elbow,” involving a pain in the joint that makes it difficult to grip properly. The elbow can also experience fractures and nerve damage. It is important to receive treatment immediately, as elbows are a prime candidate for injury reoccurrence.
