Chronic pain can lead to reduced mobility, difficulty in performing daily activities,
sleep disturbances, and even mental health issues like depression and anxiety.
That’s why early intervention with physiotherapy is crucial to prevent further
complications.
How Physiotherapy Helps in Chronic Pain Management
1. Personalized Treatment Plans
Every patient experiences chronic pain differently, which is why Dr. Jigar’s
Physio Clinic offers customized treatment plans. Physiotherapists assess your
condition and design a plan that suits your specific needs.
2. Pain Relief Through Manual Therapy
Manual therapy techniques such as massage, joint mobilization, and myofascial
release help reduce muscle stiffness, improve blood circulation, and relieve
pain.
3. Exercise Therapy for Strength and Flexibility
Specific exercises help strengthen weak muscles, improve posture, and enhance
flexibility. Some of the most common exercises include:
-
Stretching routinesto improve flexibility.
-
Strengthening exercisesfor better muscle support.
-
Low-impact aerobic exercises such as swimming or cycling
to maintain endurance.
4. Electrotherapy and Ultrasound Therapy
Physiotherapists use advanced techniques such as TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical
Nerve Stimulation) and ultrasound therapy to reduce pain and inflammation in
affected areas.
5. Postural Correction and Ergonomic Advice
Poor posture is a leading cause of chronic pain, especially in the neck and lower
back. Physiotherapists guide patients on how to maintain proper posture at work
and home, reducing strain on muscles and joints.
6. Dry Needling and Acupuncture
These techniques help stimulate muscles, release tension, and improve
circulation, providing relief for chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia and
muscle spasms.
7. Hydrotherapy for Joint Pain Relief
Hydrotherapy involves water-based exercises that reduce pressure on joints while
providing resistance to strengthen muscles. It is particularly beneficial for
arthritis and post-surgical rehabilitation.
