Physiotherapy
Physiotherapists are experts in the structure and movement of the human body. They treat people of various ages for a variety of ailments, including sports injuries and musculoskeletal (relating to muscles and the skeleton) disorders, as well as chronic illnesses including diabetes, obesity, osteoarthritis, and stroke.
When should I see a physio?
Adults typically seek the assistance of a physiotherapist to recover from an injury sustained while at the gym, trying a new fitness routine, or dealing with a work-related issue (such as lower back pain or repetitive injuries). A physiotherapist can assist you with your rehabilitation, helping you restore strength and understanding what you can do to reduce your chances of re-injuring yourself. Getting some advise from a physiotherapist before you start going to the gym or joining a bootcamp is a terrific idea because prevention is always preferable to cure. Remember that a physiotherapist is familiar with both your workout objectives and how to bring you there safely.
