Physio to reduce swelling Lymphatic Drainage Massage

achilles tendinopathy

 A common tennis ball can serve as a useful tool for strengthening and rehabilitating your feet. Whether you have an injury, high arches, flat feet, bunions or calluses, tennis ball exercises for feet provide an easy, inexpensive self-maintenance tool for healthy feet.

Rolling the foot with a tennis ball provides a self-controlled massage and stretch for the bottom of the foot and plantar fascia. Start by sitting on a chair and placing the tennis ball under your foot. Gently apply as much pressure as you can tolerate to push the ball into the floor, rolling the ball back and forth from your toes to your heel. Roll the ball for 30 seconds and switch to the other foot. Perform the rolling massage tennis ball exercise two to four days per week to prevent foot-related injuries.

Graston technique Bristol

 Graston technique’, ‘Scraping’ - Ever heard of these?⁣⁣⁣

⁣⁣⁣

IASTM is a modern-day technique of myofascial release, whereby a rounded stainless steel tool  is ran over the affected area to break up fibrous tissue.⁣⁣⁣

⁣⁣⁣

The technique of ‘scraping’ the adhesions with a tool causes a local inflammatory response to the affected area which increases blood flow. The increase in blood allows the body to heal not only the immediate inflamed area, but also the original adhesion/scar tissue. It also promotes collagen restoration.⁣⁣⁣

⁣⁣⁣

In some instances, it is not uncommon to feel some discomfort as the tool is breaking down fibrous tissue. The level of pain and discomfort will depend on the individual and the level of scar tissue - much like a sports massage.⁣⁣⁣

⁣⁣⁣

𝐁𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐅𝐈𝐓𝐒 ⁣⁣⁣

⭐️ Improves range of motion and mobility.⁣⁣⁣

⭐️ Improves blood flow.⁣⁣⁣

⭐️ Reduces pain in affected area.⁣⁣⁣

⭐️ Speeds up recovery.⁣⁣⁣

⭐️ Increases collagen production.  If you have any question 🙋🏽‍♀️ feel free to ask  #grastontechniqueBristol #grastontechnique #grastontechniqueUK

 ONDE D'URTO RADIALI Enraf-Nonius 

❓Che cosa sono le onde d'urto radiali Enraf-Nonius®?

L'aria compressa inviata al manipolo accelera un proiettile, che colpisce un applicatore fisso ad alta velocità (fino a 90 km/h). 

L'energia cinetica risultante da questo movimento viene convertita in un'onda d'urto trasmessa in modo radiale ai tessuti bersaglio.

⁉️Quali sono i benefici della terapia ad onde d'urto?

È clinicamente provato che le onde di pressione, se applicate ai tessuti lesionati, stimolano le reazioni metaboliche: 

✅Riduzione del dolore avvertito dalle fibre nervose

✅Aumento della circolazione sanguigna nei tessuti molli circostanti

✅Inizio del processo di guarigione innescato dall'attivazione delle cellule staminali...

⁉️‼️In che modo la terapia con onde d'urto può essere d'aiuto nella terapia fisica?

✅Un'onda d'urto inizia con una fase di compressione. 

✅La pressione di picco crea uno stress da taglio nei tessuti. 

✅Segue una fase di trazione che genera bolle di cavitazione. 

✅Un alto livello di cavitazione è il risultato di un'elevata densità di energia erogata dal dispositivo ad onde d'urto. 

Questa energia stimola le reazioni metaboliche ai tessuti applicati...

I provide next day appointments where a  physio comes to you to get your recovery off to the best possible start.

All BRISTOL  

I am located in the city of Bristol  and I can  cover all of the Bristol  boroughs. I am a domiciliary Physiotherapist  and as a result, I see patients  for post operative rehabilitation in the comfort of their own home.

Call me today to arrange your initial Bristol  home visit physio appointment.

I Covered By All Major Insurers

Enjoy the best physio at home in Bristol  through your private health insurance.

 I am a registered physio, and work for the nhs orthopaedic department. 

Why Choose Me ?

 

I am a Post Op Specialists,

When deciding to have your operation you went to see a surgeon that studied intensively, excelled in their chosen field and now is an expert in performing orthopaedic operations such as the one you had. It makes sense, does it not, to complete your post operative domiciliary physio with a home physio that specialises in this field too.

I have a good  of experience in working with patients  in the rehabilitation stage after surgery, and can provide you with the guidance and reassurance you need to make a full recovery and accomplish your objectives.

I accept all major insurers.

We can accept payments for your treatment from: Cigna, AXA, Aviva and WPA

Have you Recently Undergone Surgery?

Having an operation at any stage of life is an important event, and while you may not be able to change the fact that you need an operation, you can choose to organise the best domiciliary physio to ensure the best outcome after your operation. Having a home visit physio to guide and supervise your recovery can make all the difference, and the short term investment can really make a difference in your long term health and wellbeing.

Do You Wish To Have Physio Appointments At Home?

Many people have found that when a physio comes to you, rehabilitation is easier and more convenient. In the early stages after your operation, pain levels can be high, the operated area is usually stiff and swollen, and walking can be difficult. This makes the idea of getting to and from a clinic either by driving or by public transport less than appealing. Why not take out all of the stress and let me come to you.

Tecar Therapy Bristol

TECAR therapy has been used with great success since 1988. Several clinical reports from research institutes worldwide prove its remarkable effect on various injuries as seen in dermatology, traumatology and sports medicine.

The localised and induction of deep heat in the treated area causes an expansion of blood vessels, increase in blood flow and an increase in metabolic rate.

It also leads to higher elasticity in soft connective tissues improving flexibility. In addition, the localised warming lowers muscle tone.

What are the advantages for patients?

* Faster functional recovery. (The beneficial effects are apparent after just a few sessions and improvements can be observed even 24 hours after treatment.)

* Treatment is painless and relaxing.

* Treatments are safe and have high therapeutic efficacy.

* Promotes a sense of well-being, predisposing the subject towards post-treatment physical activity.

* Faster rehabilitation.

The beneficial effects of TECAR therapy are mostly used in physical therapy, rehabilitation and pain management:

* Bruises and sprains

* Post-surgery rehabilitation

* Sports traumas

* Muscle and tendon disorders

* Neuropathies

* Scar tissue

* Spine and peripheral joint disorders

* Vascular and lymphatic system disorders

* Orthopaedic disorders

* Acute and chronic pain #neckpain #backpain #shoulderpain

SHOCKWAVE therapy Bristol 2021

 Shockwave NEW Therapy Treatment 💪🏽🦶🏾🦵🙋🏽‍♀️ 2021 !! 

If you have been suffering from tendon pain ( tendinitis )  in your Achilles, knee, elbow, foot or shoulder for a long period of time and haven’t been able to find relief from various forms of treatment, then this innovative type of treatment may be of benefit.

#Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive treatment performed with a hand-held device that creates high-energy sound waves (or pressure waves), transmitted to the injured tissue to provide pain relief. The shockwaves are mechanical waves, not electrical ones. The treatment initiates an inflammation-like condition (pro-flammatory) in the tissue that is being treated and the body responds by increasing the blood circulation and metabolism in the area, which in turn accelerates the body’s own healing process and stimulates cell regeneration. It can also help reduce calcifications and improve pain and range of movement in frozen shoulder. 

Long term injuries that haven’t responded to normal treatments are often considered for steroid injections or surgery. Shockwave Therapy offers potential where other therapies have failed.

📌Applications and benefits:

Shockwave Therapy can be used to treat a wide variety of musculoskeletal conditions, especially chronic conditions, for example:

·         Plantar fasciitis (heel pain)

·         Achilles tendinopathy

·         Tennis/golfer’s elbow

·         Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome (outer hip pain)

·         Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy

·         Shoulder calcific tendinosis

·         Patella tendinopathy (jumper's knee)

·         Medial tibial stress syndrome (shin splints)

·         Frozen shoulder

·         Shoulder impingement (rotator cuff) syndrome

And as ESWT encourages bone healing, it has also been used to help treat:

·         Stress Fractures

·         Avascular Necrosis (a dead portion of bone)

·         Slow-healing bone (delayed unions)

·         Non-healing bone (non-unions)

As opposed to traditional surgical techniques, ESWT offers two main advantages: fewer potential complications and a faster return to normal activity. Additional benefits include:

·         No anaesthesia

·         Non invasive

·         No medication

·         No surgery

·         Fast treatment: 30 minutes per session, 3-5 sessions required

·         Fewer complications

·         Virtually painless after treatment

·         Significant clinical benefit often seen 6-8 weeks after treatment

The success rate of Shockwave Therapy

Documented international results show an overall result rate of 77% of chronic conditions that have not been cured with other kinds of treatment. It is important to highlight that we would expect positive clinical outcomes following treatment, however there is a chance that the treatment may not improve your symptoms. A review at 12 weeks is recommended following your final treatment. If at this stage your symptoms persist you will be advised of alternative treatments/surgery by your medical practitioner.

The advantages of Shockwave Therapy

ESWT is applied without medication, for example Cortisone injections. The treatment stimulates and effectively supports the body’s self healing mechanisms. It is usual to experience immediate pain relief following the treatment and hence improved movement. Reported side effects are minimal. However, there may be some discomfort during treatment, skin reddening, possible bruising.

February and March 2021

• Shockwave Therapy individual session - £60
• Shockwave Therapy Block of 5 sessions (30mins) - £275 (£55 each)
