Injury rehabilitation
Rehabilitation is the process to regain full function following an injury. It involves restoring strength, flexibility, endurance and power. It is achieved through various exercises, movements, stretches and drills. We believe rehabilitation is as important as treatment following an injury.
Consultation and injury assessment
Ultrasound is a method of stimulating the tissue beneath the skin’s surface using very high frequency sound waves. Therapeutic ultrasound in physical therapy is alternating compression and rarefaction of sound waves. Maximum energy absorption in soft tissue occurs from 2 to 5 cm. Intensity decreases as the waves penetrate deeper. They are absorbed primarily by connective tissue: ligaments, tendons, fascia and by scar tissue
