TELL US ABOUT YOUR NEEDS

WHOEVER YOU ARE, BE PHYSIO!

I have shoulder pain and I’ve had infiltrations, can you still help?

Yes, physiotherapy can help. Since infiltrations most often improve the situation on the short-term, it is preferable to evaluate the global condition of the shoulder to address the physical problems which could be implicated. Physiotherapy can then help you improve the mobility, the flexibility, the strength and the biomechanics of the shoulder complex, which help reduce the risks of recurrence.

How do you treat epicondylitis (tennis elbow)?

Many treatment tools can be used in physiotherapy to treat epicondylitis. First of all, we will determine the problems to address following an evaluation of your condition. All the postural and ergonomic problems will be addressed with specific exercises to your situation to improve the mobility, the flexibility, the strength and the endurance of muscles. Furthermore, the Pilates method is renowned to improve posture. We will also use muscle relaxation techniques and manual therapy to reduce the pain associated to epicondylitis.

Can physiotherapy help for pain related to carpal tunnel syndrome?

Yes, physiotherapy can help for carpal tunnel pain. We use muscle relaxation techniques and manual therapy to improve the mobility and flexibility of the affected wrist. In addition, at the initial evaluation, the professional will determine the origin of the problem and the specific exercises necessary to improve the situation and therefore reduce pain.
