Frequently asked questions and answers
When should you book an appointment with a physiatrist?
A physiatrist consultation is recommended if you have pain in the back, neck, shoulders, or joints, after sports injuries or surgery, as well as in cases of reduced mobility. Timely examination enables an accurate diagnosis and planning of appropriate physical therapy.
What does a physiatry examination include?
A physiatry examination includes a conversation with the patient, assessment of joint and muscle mobility, posture examination, and evaluation of functional abilities. Based on the findings, an individual treatment plan is created, which may include physical therapy, medical exercises, or other modern rehabilitation methods.
In which conditions is physical therapy used?
Physical therapy is used for back and neck pain, disc herniation, sports injuries, joint problems, tendon inflammation (tendinitis), as well as in rehabilitation after surgery or musculoskeletal injuries.
What is shockwave therapy and how does it work?
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment method that uses acoustic waves to stimulate tissue regeneration. This therapy helps reduce pain, improve circulation, and accelerate recovery from various orthopaedic and musculoskeletal conditions.
Is shockwave therapy painful?
Shockwave therapy may cause mild discomfort during treatment, but most patients tolerate it well. The treatment itself is brief and usually does not require anaesthesia.
How long does recovery with physical therapy take?
Recovery time depends on the type of injury or condition and the individual patient’s circumstances. With some conditions, improvement may be noticeable after only a few sessions, while more complex problems require a longer rehabilitation programme.
Can physical therapy help with chronic back pain?
Yes, physical therapy is one of the most effective methods for treating chronic back pain. A combination of therapeutic procedures and medical exercises can reduce pain, improve mobility, and help prevent recurrent episodes of pain.
