Physio is for everyone - both prevention and treatment

The job of a physiotherapist is to improve patients’ mobility and help them manage pain and recover from injury. They do this by looking at your lifestyle and medical history, teaching you useful techniques, manipulating your body and even using therapies like acupuncture. Perhaps you know someone who's been sent to a physiotherapist after breaking their leg or suffering an injury during exercise, or you think that it's only for elderly people.

Institute of Sport Physio: How EPRT Aids Healing During Rehabilitation

Physiotherapy is beneficial in the treatment of several conditions, which are mostly mobility or fitness related. Some injuries necessitate rehabilitation to restore the body to its original state. The conditions that require physiotherapy treatment are sports injuries, occupational injuries and post-surgical pain. It is vital to get treatment from a medical professional with proper qualifications in the field. In Grafton, the Institute of Sports Physiotherapy offers various services for people who need rehabilitation. A physiotherapist works to improve mobility, coordination, and strengthen muscles and reduce their pain. One of the methods that therapists at the clinic use is Electro Pressure Regeneration Therapy (EPRT). How it Works EPRT works by using a BodiHealth unit, which delivers micro electro currents. The current that the machine emits corresponds with the electro-current of the body cells.

The Institute of Sport Physio Discusses the Benefits of Acupuncture

Based on the needs of a patient, acupuncture may be included as part of a physio treatment approach. Acupuncture helps patients to achieve pain relief through the stimulation of the nervous system which triggers the body’s natural ability to produce pain relieving neuro-chemicals. Physiotherapists in Takapuna or anywhere else use solid needles with fine points and with varying widths and lengths. Needles are individually sealed in a plastic casing for single use then disposed of at the end of treatment. A number of needles may be used in a treatment session and will be left in position for a number of minutes before removal, depending on thje nature of the injury.
