Common Conditions Treated by Physiotherapy | Hamilton Physio & Rehab
Physiotherapy is more than pain relief; instead, it treats the cause of pain and helps regain normal functioning. At Hamilton Physio & Rehab, our therapists are trained to assess and treat patients for some of the most common conditions for which physiotherapy is sought. Whether it is day-to-day pain or injury, we are committed to helping you move freely and painlessly.
Musculoskeletal Pain Relief
Our physiotherapists are skilled at relieving pain and restoring mobility for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions.
Often treated are:
- Back, Neck, and Shoulder Pain treated by Posture Correction and Strengthening Exercises
- Elbow pain, such as tennis elbow and golfer's elbow, is treated using eccentric loading methods
- Knee pain, including runners' knee and meniscal tears, is supported by bracing and quad activation
- Ankle/foot problems, such as plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis, were relieved with gait retraining
Hands-on therapy with progressive exercise programs delivers quick, observable results.
Recovery of the Joints and Soft Tissues
We help patients regain strength and flexibility while minimizing the possibility of recurrence.
Specialised care includes:
- Rehabilitation of rotator cuff injury with scapular stabilization strategies.
- Sprains and strains are supported with the use of ultrasound therapy and nerve glides.
- Carpal tunnel syndrome treated with specific mobilization techniques
- Relieving sciatica pain through neural mobilization techniques and posture correction.
- Arthritis care through hydrotherapy and joint protection strategies
Custom protocols involve exercises specifically designed to help the healing process speed along. This means you stay in motion longer.
