How physiotherapy can help.........
After trauma of any kind, disruption to tissues causes pain and scarring. When a joint or muscle is not functioning properly, it can cause stress on other parts of the body that were not affected by the original injury and they in turn may become dysfunctional. Stiff joints can be the source of pain; mobilisation is necessary to increase the range of movement.
Soft tissue manipulation can help to realign scar tissue, relieve associated muscle spasm and release adhesions that have formed. This helps to re-establish the circulation necessary for the body's natural healing process, returning it to best possible function and athletic ability.
