Conditions

Common conditions requiring Physiotherapy

Head & Face

Headache

A headache is pain or discomfort in the head or neck area. It can be caused by stress, tension, or underlying health conditions. Common types include tension headaches, migraines, and cluster headaches.

Vertigo

Vertigo is a sensation of spinning or dizziness, often caused by inner ear issues, affecting balance and spatial orientation. Symptoms include nausea, unsteadiness, and sometimes hearing loss.

Dizziness

Dizziness is a sensation of lightheadedness or unsteadiness. It can result from various causes, including inner ear issues, dehydration, medication side effects, or underlying health conditions. Consult a doctor if persistent.

Bell’s Palsy

Bell’s palsy or facial palsy is an unexplained condition, causing weakening and paralysis of the facial muscles. Usually, a compressed or pinched facial nerve leads to paralysis.

Neck & Shoulder

Muscle Spasm

Muscle spasms are sudden, involuntary contractions of a muscle or group of muscles, often causing sharp pain. They can result from overuse, dehydration, or electrolyte imbalances and typically resolve quickly.

Cervical Radiculopathy

Cervical radiculopathy is a condition where a nerve root in the cervical spine becomes compressed, causing pain, weakness, or numbness radiating from the neck to the shoulder, arm, or hand.

Cervical Spondylitis

Cervical spondylitis, also known as cervical osteoarthritis, is a degenerative condition affecting the cervical spine. It involves wear and tear of the vertebrae and discs, leading to pain and stiffness in the neck.

Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread pain, fatigue, and tenderness in muscles and joints. It often includes sleep disturbances, memory issues, and mood swings.
 

Disc Herniation

Disc herniation is often the result of wear and tear of the disk with age. Over time, the spinal discs gradually lose the fluid volume causing degenerative disc disease.

An AC joint injury involves the ligaments connecting the acromion (shoulder blade) to the collarbone. It often results from falls or impact, causing pain and limited shoulder mobility. Treatment varies from rest to surgery depending on severity.

Rotator Cuff Injury

The rotator cuffs a set of four muscles/tendons in the shoulder. The four tendons are - the infraspinatus, the subscapularis, the teres minor, and the supraspinatus. Together these four stabilize our shoulder joints, helping us perform various arm movements.

Shoulder Fracture

Shoulder fracture: A painful injury often caused by trauma. Requires medical attention for proper diagnosis and treatment to ensure full recovery.

Nerve Entrapment of Shoulder

Shoulder nerve entrapment causes pain & numbness due to compression of nerves. Common in conditions like thoracic outlet syndrome & rotator cuff injuries.
