Back pain physiotherapy treatment
Following the assessment of your physical condition, the physiotherapist may devise a treatment plan taking into account one or a combination of the following therapies:
● Massage & manipulation:
This involves manipulating body’s soft tissues using movement of hands. It is considered to be one of the most effective forms of back pain physiotherapy at home and is suitable for people of all ages. It is used for the purpose of:
● Improving blood circulation
● Effective draining of fluids
● Better mobility
● Relaxation and pain relief
● Movement & exercises:
A
comprehensive exercising programme is an essential part of back pain
physiotherapy that people are often recommended to undergo while recovering
from an injury or looking to improve their balance or speed of movement. As per
the diagnosis, specific exercises are incorporated in the treatment plan to
help you recover fast & safely.
The purpose of these exercises is to strengthen your muscles & joints area, improve control, improve the overall range of movement and prevent further or recurring injury.
● Energy based therapy:
Also called
electrotherapy, it uses different types of energies such as currents or
impulses to stimulate the back nerves. The electric impulses make the muscles
tighten which in turn helps ease out pain and stress from the body, thereby
promoting effective healing.
Energy
based therapies are completely pain free and you may experience a bit of
tingling sensation while undergoing them. Their types include:
1. TENS: The transcutaneous electrical nerve
stimulation (TENS) machine delivers an electric current to stop your nerves
from sending pain signals to your brain and encourages endorphins to be
released.
2. Ultrasound– High-frequency sound waves treat
deep back tissue injuries by stimulating blood circulation and cell activity.
It is thought to help reduce pain and muscle spasm and speed up the healing
process.
3. Laser therapy– This therapy helps reduce pain
and back muscle spasms.
4. Shortwave diathermy– An electromagnetic field generates heat within your body’s tissues. This is thought to help reduce inflammation, strengthen tissues and reduce back pain
● Hydrotherapy:
It is a form of therapy that is carried out in water. The water temperature is usually kept from warm to hot to help the muscles relax and relieve pain. A special hydrotherapy bath is prepared in which the weight of the water pushes against your body while you are floating or performing the exercises. It helps stimulate proper blood flow in the back area and reduce pain.
