What we specialize in

Musculoskeletal injuries and pain are common conditions that affect the muscles, bones, tendons, and ligaments in the body. These injuries can range from minor sprains and strains to more serious fractures and dislocations.

Musculoskeletal injuries are caused by a variety of factors, such as overuse, trauma, poor posture, and muscle imbalances. They can lead to pain, stiffness, weakness, and limited range of motion.

Rameetse Physio can provide a comprehensive approach to musculoskeletal injuries and pain management, which may include:

  1. Assessment and diagnosis: A physical therapist will perform a thorough examination to identify the specific injury and underlying causes.
  2. Treatment and management: This may include a variety of techniques such as manual therapy, exercises, modalities and education on body mechanics, ergonomics and posture.
  3. Pain management: Physical therapists may use a variety of techniques to reduce pain and inflammation, such as ultrasound, electrical stimulation, ice and heat therapy, and dry needling.
  4. Rehabilitation and recovery: This includes developing and progressing an individualized rehabilitation program to help the patient regain strength, range of motion, and function.
  5. Prevention and education: Physical therapists will also educate patients on how to prevent future injuries and manage their condition through self-care and lifestyle changes.

It is important to note that physiotherapy management should be individualized and tailored to the specific needs and goals of each patient. It is also important to note that a physiotherapist will refer to other medical professionals if necessary.
