OUR TREATMENT SOLUTIONS
PRE/POST-SURGERY REHABILITATION

Pre-surgery rehabilitation entails conditioning muscles to better base strength to help with post-operation recovery while physiotherapy for post-surgery rehabilitation helps with muscle and kinetic chain retraining. Overall, these forms of rehabilitation reduce the risk of re-injury and extends the lifespan of the implants, enhancing the performance of the surgery. Physio+ specialises in post-surgery rehabilitation for spinal operations; coupled with manual therapy and electrotherapy, recovering patients experience a more holistic recovery process.
EXTRACORPOREAL SHOCK WAVE THERAPY (ESWT)

Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive technology that uses sound waves to help in promoting neovascularization at the tendon – bone junction, and also to stimulate collagen synthesis and tissue remodelling. This is essential in the recovery process as it accelerates the healing process. It has been used to treat common musculoskeletal conditions such as tennis elbows and plantar fasciitis.
DRY NEEDLING

Dry needling involves using a thin microfilament needle to penetrate the skin, usually into muscle trigger points. The needle is of single-use and comes packaged in individual sterile packaging and it has to be administered by a certified physiotherapist.
Dry needling is different from TCM acupuncture whereby the latter is focus on targeting the meridian points throughout the body while the former is based on, targeting mainly muscles and connective tissues. However, both may use the same microfilament needles.
​
The purpose of dry needling is to alleviate pain and restore movement impairments. Introducing the needle into a trigger point relieves tightness and introduces blood flow to that muscle, which helps reduce pain. It is highly effective in treating neck, shoulder, back and hip pain.

ELECTROTHERAPY
This uses TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and Therapeutic Ultrasound to achieve muscle activation, pain relief and tissue healing.

MANUAL THERAPY
This involves soft and deep tissue massage, as well as joint manipulation, to aid in realignment of bone joints and to reduce tension in stiffened muscles. Releasing the correct muscles and stiff joints that contribute to the pain/problem makes it easier to align the body to a neutral position, allowing optimal function of the muscles and joints. In this way, we are able to bring about a pain-free outcome and reduce the risks of re-injury.

CLINICAL PILATES
Often used to treat those with musculoskeletal injuries, clinical Pilates strengthens the core muscles, alleviates different kinds of musculoskeletal pains and improves one’s posture.
CUSTOMISED EXERCISE CLASS

The customized exercise programmes is tailored for everyone, especially for those who have been injured before and looking for a safe environment to restart their exercise regime. Under the guidance of our experienced Physiotherapists, exercises will be tweaked according to various factors such as previous injury history and fitness goals.
ERGONOMIC EDUCATION
More preventive in nature, physiotherapy advice in this area are especially beneficial for desk-bound individuals in a typical office environment. It covers office exercises, ergonomic computer setup and ideal body posture.
