Physical Therapy

What Is Physical Therapy?

Physical therapy is a field of treatment that aims to relieve pain, movement restriction and loss of function originating from the musculoskeletal and nervous systems through non-surgical methods. The aim is not merely to relieve pain, but to resolve the true source of the problem to provide a lasting and healthy recovery.

We do not regard physical therapy as a single application. We treat it as a holistic process that begins with an assessment and brings together manual methods, electrotherapy when needed and, without exception, personalized exercise.

When Is It Applied?

• Spine-related pain — low back, neck and back pain, herniation and sciatica complaints.
• Joint and muscle problems — shoulder, knee, hip and elbow problems.
• Postural disorders — tension and pain related to poor posture.
• The post-injury period — rehabilitation of sports and overexertion injuries.
• Chronic muscle tension — recurring pain and movement restrictions.

What Is Done in Physical Therapy?

The physical therapy process is shaped according to the person. In general, the following methods are used together, as needed:

• Hot and cold agents — applications that help reduce pain and tension.
• Electrotherapy — pain management with TENS and similar applications in suitable cases.
• Manual therapy — relaxation of tight muscles with mobilization, cupping therapy, Graston and clinical massage.
• Chiropractic and mobilization — supporting spinal alignment in suitable cases.
• Personalized exercise — strengthening weak muscles with three-dimensional, personalized programs.

What We Do

First, our physician establishes your diagnosis with a detailed physical examination and draws up a treatment protocol tailored to you. We always regard surgery as a last resort. In cases deemed necessary, we perform dry needling and injection applications.

Our expert physiotherapists relax tight muscles and support spinal alignment with manual therapy, mobilization and, when necessary, chiropractic applications. Once relief is achieved, we move on to fully personalized, three-dimensional exercise programs to resolve the underlying problem; because the human body is three-dimensional and requires personalized rather than standard exercise.

We complete the sessions with kinesiology (athletic) taping so that the treatment extends throughout the day. At the end of the process, we send our client off with satisfaction and continue our remote follow-up. What matters to us is not a temporary relief, but a lasting and healthy recovery.
