Physical Rehabilitation in San Antonio – Effective Healing and Mobility
At Hilltop Integrated Healthcare, we understand that physical rehabilitation is crucial for ensuring optimal healing of musculoskeletal and soft tissue injuries. While the body has a natural ability to heal, the quality of this healing process can significantly impact long-term outcomes.
Without proper intervention, the body may heal incorrectly, leading to the formation of scar tissue. This can result in early onset osteoarthritis, reduced mobility, and persistent pain.
Our comprehensive approach to physical rehabilitation in San Antonio includes both manual therapy and advanced therapeutic modalities.
Physical Rehabilitation using Manual Therapy
Chiropractic care, like Manual therapy involves hands-on techniques to manipulate muscles and joints, which helps reduce pain and improve mobility.
In addition to this, we incorporate treatments such as electrical muscle stimulation, ultrasound, and intersegmental traction to further support the healing process.
- Electrical muscle stimulation involves using low-level electrical currents to stimulate muscle contractions, which can help reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and promote muscle recovery.
- Ultrasound therapy uses sound waves to penetrate deep into the tissue, promoting blood flow and reducing swelling.
- Intersegmental traction gently stretches the spine, enhancing mobility and relieving pressure on spinal discs and nerves.
Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy or cold therapy, is another essential component of our rehabilitation programs. By applying cold to the affected areas, we can reduce inflammation and pain, accelerating the healing process.
This therapy is often used in conjunction with prescribed stretching and strengthening exercises tailored to each patient’s specific needs. Stretching helps maintain flexibility and prevent stiffness, while strengthening exercises build muscle support around injured areas, promoting stability and preventing future injuries.
