Functional diagnostics
Functional diagnostics in physiotherapy is crucial for understanding the causes of the patient’s ailments and developing an effective treatment plan. At Life Fizjo, we use modern methods of assessing the musculoskeletal system, such as gait analysis, muscle strength tests, joint range of motion assessment, and stability and coordination tests.
We also use a dynamometer to precisely measure muscle strength, which helps to monitor the progress of therapy. With these techniques, we can effectively treat symptoms and address the causes of health problems, providing patients with a faster recovery and a better quality of life.
Lymphatic
A method that helps to remove excess lymphatic fluid from the body, reducing swelling and improving lymph circulation. It is a safe and effective procedure that can provide relief from swelling, providing patients with comfort and an improved quality of life.
Pain management
Physiotherapy is one of the key treatments for different types of pain, including chronic pain, post-operative pain, and pain resulting from injuries. The aim of this form of therapy is not only to alleviate pain, but also to address its underlying causes, which can significantly improve the quality of life of patients.
An important element of physiotherapy is also the education of patients in the field of self-help techniques, ergonomics and pain management strategies, which is necessary to maintain the effects of therapy for a longer period of time.
Pain management as part of physiotherapy focuses on a holistic approach to the patient, which makes it possible not only to fight the symptoms, but also the causes of the problems, leading to a lasting improvement and strengthening of the overall health.
Dry needling
What is dry needling?
Dry needling is a modern technique used in physiotherapy, which involves precise puncturing of muscles with thin, sterile needles. This treatment helps to relax tense muscles, reduce pain and restore their proper function. Unlike acupuncture, dry needling focuses on trigger points and myofascial structures that cause pain.
When is it worth using?
- Chronic muscle pain,
- Tension in the back, neck and shoulders,
- Migraines and headaches,
- Limited range of motion,
- Sports injuries.
How does it work?
Puncturing selected muscle points improves blood circulation and reduces tension, which leads to pain relief and improved mobility. The treatment is quick and the effects can be felt after just a few sessions.
Does it hurt?
The sensations are individual – most patients feel only a slight prick or temporary muscle tension.
Medical Training
A form of physical rehabilitation that combines elements of traditional strength and endurance training with precisely tailored therapeutic methods to meet the specific medical needs of patients.
The aim of medical training is not only to improve the overall physical condition, but also to support the treatment and rehabilitation process of people after injuries, surgeries, and in cases of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes or motor function disorders.
Training programs are designed individually for each patient by experienced physiotherapists or rehabilitation trainers, which allows you to achieve your health goals safely and effectively.
Medical training often incorporates techniques to improve strength, coordination, flexibility, and breathing techniques that are designed to not only improve physically, but also reduce pain and improve overall well-being.
EMS Training
Electrostimulation of muscles is an innovative and extremely effective method supporting rehabilitation, treatment of various diseases and injuries and achieving goals related to physical condition. Through the precise use of electrical impulses, EMS helps to rebuild muscles, improve joint stability, and reduce pain, making it an excellent tool in the treatment of injuries, back pain, and joint problems.
Here is a list of ailments and goals for which EMS training is particularly beneficial.
