The Cambridge Physiotherapy multidisciplinary approach combines several therapies to provide customized treatment for each patient. After a thorough assessment, your Cambridge Physiotherapist will determine which physiotherapy and rehab services to include in your care plan. Here is an outline of the services available at Cambridge Physiotherapy.
Physiotherapy
Cambridge Physiotherapists are highly trained and use their in-depth knowledge of the body to provide a thorough assessment, find the root cause of the injury/problem, provide a proper diagnosis and create a unique treatment plan for your particular injury, illness or disability. Your physiotherapist aims to help you restore your strength, function, and general well-being. Physiotherapy treatments are ideal for work related injuries, car accidents, sprots injuries, and pre-operative therapy.
Massage Therapy
Massage Therapy manipulates soft tissues like muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments, and joints. Treatments help alleviate soft tissue discomfort from everyday stresses, muscle overuse and chronic pain conditions. Ideal as a treatment after a car accident or any fall or accident with injuries, posture problems, muscle strain from long hours of work, and stress, massage therapy can reduce painful muscular patterning.
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care restores balance, alleviates pain, and improves overall function. Our skilled chiropractors provide personalized treatments to address back pain, neck pain, joint discomfort, and more. Gentle, evidence-based techniques realign the spine to enhance mobility and promote natural healing. Ideal for recovering from an injury, managing chronic conditions, and preventative care, chiropractic services help you achieve lasting wellness.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture at Cambridge Physiotherapy encourages natural healing, effectively treating swelling and pain. Treatments are safe, effective, and comfortable. Acupuncture works best in combination with other physiotherapy modalities. Our patients find acupuncture especially effective with chronic pain in their upper and lower back and fibromyalgia.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave Therapy at Cambridge Physiotherapy treats chronic pain. Acoustic waves manage calcific tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, and heel spurs by breaking down extra calcium deposits. Shockwave Therapy is non-invasive and safe, and short, high-frequency bursts of energy are used for accelerated tissue repair and mobility restoration. Shockwave Therapy is covered as a part of physiotherapy by insurance companies.
Laser Therapy
Laser Therapy is a drug-free, all-natural, non-invasive treatment used at Cambridge Physiotherapy because it has no side effects. Laser Therapy effectively accelerates healing, reduces pain, and controls inflammation. Laser treatments release photons into tissues to relieve pain, energize cells, and increase circulation. We use Class Three lasers that are safer than other lasers. Laser Therapy works well in combination with other therapies for optimal results.
Spinal Decompression (DTS)
Non-surgical Spinal Decompression is a safe, highly effective treatment for neck and back pain, Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD), slipped discs, sciatica, and nerve impingement. Retraction occurs slowly over four to six weeks, so torn and degenerated disc fibers begin to heal. Spinal Decompression (DTS) is covered as a part of physiotherapy by insurance companies.
Custom Foot Orthotics
Cambridge Physiotherapy offers the highest quality custom orthotics available. Custom Orthotics correct imbalances to improve the body’s biomechanics, leading to pain relief in the feet and throughout the body. Orthotics are usually accepted by insurance companies.
Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy has been used for 50 years for soft tissue injuries. It reduces healing times and accelerates normal resolution times of inflammation by attracting extra mast cells to the injury site. This increased blood flow can be beneficial in a chronic injury. It is commonly used for sports injuries and ligament injuries.
Physiotherapy for Sports Injuries
Sports injury physiotherapy assesses, manages, and prevents injuries related to physical activities for people of all ages and at all levels of sports. Sport-specific programs maximize recovery, aid in the safe return to your sport and prevent you from hurting yourself again.
Manual Therapy
Physiotherapists use their hands to put pressure on muscles and mobilize/manipulate joints to decrease pain from injury, disease, muscle spasms, muscle tension or joint dysfunctions. Manual Therapy at Cambridge Physiotherapy includes soft tissue work, manual therapy for trigger points, passive stretches, passive traction, and passive range of motion.
Concussion Therapy
Concussions are mild traumatic brain injuries (mTBI) caused by impacts or sudden stops during sports, falls or motor vehicle accidents. Symptoms include light sensitivity, noise sensitivity, balance problems, memory issues, vision problems, dizziness, nausea, and focus/concentration problems. Education to prevent future concussions is vital.
Vestibular Therapy
Dizziness or vertigo feels like the room spins, you spin, or the room shifts or tilts. Many vestibular issues make you feel unstable and off-balance or have blurred vision. Causes include BPPV, Labyrinthitis, Vestibular Hypofunction, Meniere’s Disease and Vestibular Migraine.
Custom Bracing and Compression Stockings
Effective custom bracing can reduce pain, improve performance and prevent future injury. Custom compression stockings ensure ideal fit and accurate compression for optimum therapeutic benefits and increased wearing comfort.
Individualized Exercise Plans
A personalized exercise program helps you maintain strength, increase therapeutic gains, and reduce the risk of reinjury. Each series of exercises is practical, feasible and accessible, so you maximize your efforts without continuous instruction. The Cambridge Physiotherapy therapists also provide guidance for your home exercise plan.
