Physiotherapy for Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis is not one disease, but rather a broad term that encompasses more than 100 very different disorders. All involve the joints and are characterized by chronic pain, limited mobility, and decreased range of motion. Before you get treatment for arthritis in Bangalore, you should know about the disease. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic and painful clinical condition that leads to progressive joint damage, disability, deterioration in the quality of life, and shortened life expectancy. Even mild inflammation may result in irreversible damage and permanent disability. The clinical course according to symptoms may be either intermittent or progressive in patients with RA. In most patients, the clinical course is progressive, and structural damage develops in the first 2 years. The aim of RA management is to achieve pain relief and prevent joint damage and functional loss. You can get an appointment with a physiotherapist at home and resort to other rehabilitation applications that significantly augment medical therapy by improving the management of RA and reducing handicaps in daily living for patients with RA. So, get treatment for arthritis in Bangalore from a reputed clinic and get freedom from such ailments.

AYURSH PHYSIOTHERAPY MANAGEMENT

EXERCISE THERAPY – Exercises are used as an intervention that aims to improve the mobility and strength of the affected joint and therefore, improve functional ability. Exercise may include Mobilizing exercise (Increase or maintain range of motion) Strengthening exercise (that use resistance from putty, a gel ball, or an elastic band to strengthen joints and surrounding muscles)
JOINT PROTECTION – Joint protection is a self-management approach that aims to maintain functional ability through changing/adapting working methods and movement patterns of affected joints. This can be with the use of devices such as splints or pacing activities. Changing these habits can help reduce pain, inflammation, and stress that is applied to joints during daily activity and may help preserve the integrity of joint structures longer term.
ELECTROTHERAPY – Electrotherapy is an alternative to medication for treating arthritis pain. It follows the principle of electrical stimulation to decrease pain sensations. Electrotherapy devices deliver electrical stimulation by using electrodes that send electric pulses to your nerve endings via pads placed on your skin. It sends an electric current to your nerves to override pain signals. This causes a tingling sensation that you may find soothing. It also relieves pain by triggering the release of natural painkillers i.e. Endorphins in the brain. Electrotherapy also uses techniques such as ultrasound and low-level laser therapy which can help to increase the healing process and therefore reduce pain.

Sports Physiotherapy | Home Physiotherapy

Sports activities, whether professional or otherwise, can cause muscle strain or even serious injuries. If these problems are not given proper medical attention and treatment, they can worsen. However, these unwanted injuries can now be alleviated and prevented from happening again through the application of AYURSH SPORTS PHYSIOTHERAPY. You can maximize your performance and prevent future injuries through various techniques and exercises. Sports physiotherapy is meant to help you get back on track as soon as possible in a safe, secure, and effective way.

Ayursh Sports physiotherapy is geared towards both athletes and casual players who have suffered an injury or ongoing problem and is designed to help with injuries or conditions occurring during sports activities. The techniques include hands-on treatment ,rehabilitation and electric modalities. Whether you’re a professional athlete or at the beginning of your athletic journey, sports physiotherapy can be a suitable form of treatment for you.

HOW IT WORKS

Sports injuries are high-performance injuries that require utmost care. A Sports physiotherapist works closely with the athlete/ team to identify the requirements of a particular sport and bring out the best result post-injury in performance. For instance, if a midfield footballer injures his ankle while playing football and goes through rehab. He is given specialized rehab exercises to be able to run, cut directions and manipulate the ball like before the injury as per his sport. Depending on the sport a customized rehab program is designed to assist the athlete back to the sport. If it’s a cricket injury like hypertension in a fast bowler, then the bowler is guided to exercises that prevent hyperextension or stabilize the spine and assist in his return to cricket.

Sports physiotherapy can in fact provide various treatment modalities. The treatment approaches towards back pain and neck pain in regular patients will be dealt with various treatment techniques used in sports therapy and mainly on movement rehabilitation. For instance, Running has been taken up by many regular individuals for fitness, but they struggle with injuries due to a lack of guidance/knowledge.

WHAT ARE VARIOUS SPORTS WHICH REQUIRE PHYSIOTHERAPY

Players are at risk of injury at any moment, they can sustain injuries to the head, face, shoulder, arm, thigh, and knee There are various measures to prevent the injuries by making sure that the muscles and joints are properly warmed up, protective gears are used, using safety equipment, and doing proper cool-down exercises. The exercises should be done under the guidance of a trained and experienced physiotherapist. Sports in which injuries occur most commonly are:

Soccer/football
Tennis
Cricket
Hockey
Athletic

Though there are various other sports that also require physiotherapy treatment like Basketball, Volleyball, Rugby, Badminton, Cycling etc.

WHAT ARE THE COMMON CONDITIONS/SPORTS INJURIES THAT CAN BE TREATED BY SPORTS THERAPY

Muscle Strain: Muscle strain or pulled muscle is one of the most common sports injuries that often take place when a muscle is overstretched and gets torn. Muscle strains mainly affect the quadriceps, calves, quadriceps, groyne, lower back, and shoulder.

Tendonitis: Inflammation of the tendon is referred to as tendonitis, associated with overuse, but can also be developed when a traumatic injury creates micro-tears in the muscle fibers.

Stress Fracture: Stress fractures are also a form of overuse injury. It takes place when the muscles are no longer able to absorb the pressure, thus resulting in a fracture. Stress fractures usually affect the lower legs and feet and women athletes are more prone to such injury than men.

Contusions: Direct impact to the muscle causing injury is known as contusions. The faster the speed of the equipment that hits the player, the more severe the injury is resulting in swelling and bruising of the area. RICE is recommended for treatment, and medical assistance may be required for more severe contusions.

Whiplash Injury: Whiplash injury can happen by an abrupt or unexpected backward or forward motion of the neck. Falling suddenly or getting hit causes the head to jerk and the neck gets strained. It occurs commonly in contact sports, causing pain, numbness in the arms due to minor or major soft tissue damage to muscles and ligaments in the neck and vertebrae. The recovery of the player depends upon the severity of the injury.

Shoulder Impingement: Shoulder impingement occurs due to the repetitive overhead movement during playing. These repetitive concentric and eccentric movements place demands to maintain high levels of muscular control, required to maintain the stability of the shoulder joint. Initial physiotherapy treatment for these conditions is rest, ice, and Kinesio-taping. To increase the flexibility of the muscles, ligaments, and tendons, range of motion and strengthening exercises are designed by the physiotherapist.

Acromi-Oclavicular Joint Injury: The prevalence of shoulder injuries is high in hockey. The most commonly seen shoulder injury is Acromioclavicular (AC) joint injury, also known as a shoulder separation. This injury occurs due to direct contact hit into the shoulder. The severity can vary from a sprain to a complete tear of the involved ligaments. The physiotherapy treatment includes immobilization by rest in a sling followed by isometrics and gentle ROM exercises.

Rotator Cuff Injury: The most common cause of a rotator cuff tear is repetitive microtrauma, which can occur over some time. Bruising or swelling occurs due to the repeated rotator cuff injury by pinching or straining, catching, or squeezing the rotator cuff tendons. Physiotherapists focus on reducing inflammation and pain. The therapist recommends ROM exercises, isometric exercises, and capsular stretching, followed by isotonic exercises and aggressive pain-free strengthening.

Tennis Elbow: Tennis elbow injury occurs to the tendons located on the outer side of the elbow, this overuse and overload occur from the serve and forehand stroke. Physiotherapy treatment for tennis elbow involves rest, ice and Kinesio- taping. A wrist brace or tennis elbow band can be used and special physiotherapy exercises for stretching and strengthening the muscles are beneficial.

Golfer’s Elbow: Golfer’s elbow Or medial epicondylitis is caused due to excessive use of topspin and due to overload on the backhand stroke-causing pain and inflammation. Physiotherapy treatment involves rest, ice, and Kinesio- taping. A wrist brace can be used, followed by stretching and strengthening exercises.

Wrist Strain: Falling on an outstretched arm includes wrist sprains, wrist fractures, and shoulder dislocations. It can occur when the wrist moves in an abnormal position, suddenly twists, bends backward, or sustains heavy impact. The player feels tenderness, warmth, popping or tearing sounds, and difficulty in moving the wrist.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: These injuries occur due to the laid-back grip, rotation of the palm upward, and quickly turning the wrist to perform the topspin. Treatment for these conditions involves rest, ice and range of motion, and strengthening exercises.

Lower Back Pain

Players suffer from low back pain due to the fast weight transfers, jumping, and twisting, resulting in repeated flexion, extension, rotation and lateral flexion of the spine commonly required during cocking or loading phase of the tennis serve. The physiotherapist designs strengthening exercises for back and abdominal muscles to increase strength.

Femoroacetabular Impingement: Femoroacetabular impingement can occur due to the multidirectional movement pattern, loading and abruptly starting, cutting, twisting, and stopping. This form of hip injury can be treated with the help of RICE and physiotherapy sessions under the guidance of a physiotherapist.
Groyne Pull: Groyne pull occurs as a result of a pull or stretch of the muscles of the inner thigh. The player feels pain and tenderness in the groyne and the inside of the thigh while raising the knee or while bringing the legs together. The player feels severe pain with a popping or snapping sound during the injury.

Iliotibial Band Syndrome: Iliotibial band syndrome occurs due to the overuse injury along the outer thigh. Due to continuous friction created by the IT band along the outer side of the thigh, during running. The player feels pain and tenderness on the lateral or outer part of the thigh and knee just above the knee joint.

Hamstring Strains: A hamstring strain is usually caused when the muscles become overloaded, leading to a strain, or a complete tear. Hamstrings are usually injured during sprinting i.e during fast bowling while fielding or running between wickets as a batsman. The player feels a sudden or severe pain during exercise, pain or tightness while straightening or bending the leg, and weight-bearing. Physiotherapy treatment starts with RICE followed by progressive strengthening through exercise, soft tissue massage, scar tissue mobilization, dry needling, and taping.

Torn ACL: ACL or anterior cruciate ligament helps in keeping the knee joints together and brings stability. A Torn ACL is extremely painful and restricts the ability to walk. The injury takes place from a direct shot to the knees, or from incorrect landing and or stopping and changing direction quickly.

Torn MCL: It is another form of a knee injury, which takes place when the medial collateral ligament that connects the femur to the tibia is injured. It is caused when the knees are pushed sideways. This form of knee injury can be treated with help of ice compression, braces, and sports physical therapy sessions under the watchful eyes of a sports physiotherapist.

Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome: Patellofemoral pain syndrome or runner's knee is a condition in which the cartilage under the kneecap is damaged due to injury. It can occur due to strained tendons or misalignment in the knee. The player feels pain while exercising, bending the knee, climbing the stairs, squatting, and jumping. The player feels cracking or popping sounds in the knee while climbing stairs or after sitting for a longer duration with the knee bent.

Shin Splints: It affects the insides of the lower leg or shin area and is an overuse injury and also a common injury found among runners. Athletes having flat feet are more susceptible to this form of injury.

Plantar Fasciitis: Plantar Fasciitis is the inflammation of the plantar fascia ligament that connects the heel to the front of the foot. Putting too much strain and stress are the major reasons behind this form of injury and is usually treated with rest, ice, and stretching exercises.

Ankle Sprains: Medial ankle sprain can occur when the toes are turned out while the foot is flexed upward. Lateral ankle sprains can occur in soccer when a player kicks the ball with the top of their foot. Ankle sprains take place when the ligament that supports the joint gets overstretched due to incorrect stepping or stepping on an uneven surface or due to twists and rolls. Usually, ankle strains heal with RICE – rest, ice, compression, and elevation.

Achilles Tendon Rupture: Achilles tendon rupture occurs due to the partial or complete tear of the Achilles tendon. This can occur when a player performs a fast or jerky movement. Ankle sprains occur when the ligaments (surrounding the ankle joint) are stretched or torn.

Rehabilitation after a sports injury is a crucial aspect to ensure full recovery, minimize time off from sports, and to prevent reinjury. Modern rehabilitation methods have surpassed traditional management protocols and are based on an active rehabilitation framework that demands equal participation from the athlete and the entire rehabilitation team.

Post-Surgical Operative Rehabilitation

Post-surgical operative rehabilitation is necessary after a major operation that hinders the function of the body.

The most common surgeries for which you can expect physiotherapy treatment include:

Orthopedic Surgery: bone, joint and muscle repairs, reconstructions and replacements [for pain, reduced strength, reduced range of movement, postural problems, swelling, balance and coordination problems]
Spinal and Neurological Surgery: spinal fusions, disc repairs and replacements, brain surgery and other procedures [for weakness, breathing difficulties, reduced mobility, muscle shortening, loss of sensation]
Abdominal and Thoracic Surgery: surgery for the internal organs including the lungs, heart, liver, gastrointestinal system and other organs [for pain, reduced exercise levels, breathing difficulties, reduced mobility, postural problems]
Obstetric and Gynaecological Surgery: postnatal, hysterectomy, gynaecological repairs and reconstructions and other procedures
Urological Surgery: bladder and prostate surgery
Breast Surgery: resections and reconstructions

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF POST SURGICAL REHABILITATION?

Physiotherapy after surgery should begin immediately in the hospital, however it is important that once you have been discharged you continue physiotherapy to achieve the best possible recovery. At Ayursh , we offer chest physiotherapy and physiotherapist home service that makes the treatment more accessible. AYURSH PHYSIOTHERAPY team will encourage you to carry out a range of exercises to strengthen and mobilise any affected joints and muscles and this will also help to improve circulatory or respiratory problems that may have developed in the hospital.

Other Benefits Include:

Effective management of your pain
Help you return to activities of daily living
Strengthening of weak muscles
Stretching of muscles that may have become stiff
Help get you back to the level you were previously
Improving your posture
Regain your independence

Help clear any secretions, improve lung volumes and prevent chest infections
Advise on effective positioning to increase comfort and reduce the risk of pressure sores

REHABILITATION STAGES

Surgery Recovery

Your first step toward normal function is healing from the surgery itself. Any surgery will require some form of incision to the treated area, so medications to help with pain and inflammation may be used. Ice is commonly used to help reduce swelling. Braces, slings, crutches, or casts may be necessary to keep a limb or area in a fixed position to allow things to heal properly.

In some cases, exercises to start restoring strength and motion may begin shortly after surgery. This is often done when you book a physiotherapist home visit. This will depend on what is being treated (joint repair, fusing bone, fixing fractures, etc.), and in many cases getting basic function back is an important early step in recovery. But the main focus of this step is pain management to gauge how soon to start moving and testing the injured area.

Rebuilding Motion

Mobilizing an injury is very important to getting your body to behave normally after surgery. Knowing when to start physical therapy is vital to avoid stretching and moving too soon, which will only slow down the healing process. Physical therapy is necessary to help build flexibility through stretching and moving the injured area based on your ability.

Soft tissue and joint mobilization training are used to improve range of motion and reduce pain. Various exercises are used in therapy and at home to help your injury heal properly and not limit movement.

Rebuilding Strength

Equally important is rebuilding strength through physical therapy to avoid muscle weakness, which will also limit flexibility, endurance, and power in an injured area. Muscle weakness is often noted in an injury post surgery within a month to six weeks. Which can cure through post-surgical operative rehabilitation.

Having a regimen that focuses on adding strength and cardiovascular endurance will allow less chance of muscle weakness and restore regular function more quickly. Cycling, pool exercises, and other targeted exercises can strengthen without aggravating an injury. Different injuries will put different demands on physical therapy.

Restoring Normal Function

Once you have more strength and increased motion, the next step to getting back to your regular life is balance and coordination. Exercises at this stage are designed to increase speed and agility, and require more targeted and nuanced training depending on your level of normal physical activity. At this point, you should be close to getting back to routine activity and exercise with normal flexibility, strength, and equilibrium.

Everyone heals from injuries at different rates, so your treatment will be designed to suit your specific needs. It is recommended that you book a physiotherapist near me home service and get the medical attention that you need. Getting back to intense physical activity for sports may take longer than normal function, and age can play a part in healing times.

Cardio – Respiratory Physiotherapy

Cardio-Respiratory physiotherapy is the management and treatment of patients with respiratory diseases, it aims to clear the patient’s airways and help them return to physical activity. As well as “chest physiotherapy”, which includes the management of patients with excessive airway secretions, maximizing oxygenation, improving lung volume, and preserving musculoskeletal function.

Respiratory physiotherapy has key role in early mobilisation, exercising, and muscle retraining for patients across conditions such as respiratory conditions (COPD, bronchiectasis, cystic fibrosis), neuromuscular diseases (muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury), and during pre and post-operative care mainly in upper abdominal surgeries(mastectomy, pneumonectomy, lobectomy,)

At Ayursh, we offer home physiotherapy in Bangalore that helps you to get the right respiratory care for your needs.

Ayursh Respiratory Care Mainly Aims

* To facilitate removal of retained or airway secretions(foreign body obstruction, sputum)
* To optimize lung compliance (the ability of the lung to stretch and expand) and to improve gas exchange
* To decrease the work of abnormal breathing
* Improve exercise tolerance
* Prevent secondary complications

What are the Techniques Used

1) Postural Drainage – Which involves positioning a person with the assistance of gravity to aid the normal airway clearance mechanism. Postural drainage positioning varies based on specific segments of the lungs with a large amount of secretions. Postural drainage is the drainage of secretions, by the effect of gravity, from one or more lung segments to the central airways where they can be removed by a cough or mechanical aspiration.

2) Percussion – Also referred to as cupping, clapping, and tapotement. The purpose of percussion is to intermittently apply kinetic energy to the chest wall and lungs. This is accomplished by rhythmically striking the thorax with a cupped hand or mechanical device directly over the lung segment(s) being drained.

3) Vibration – Vibration involves the application of a fine tremorous action (manually performed by pressing in the direction that the ribs and soft tissue of the chest move during expiration) over the draining area. In this technique, a rapid vibratory impulse is transmitted through the chest wall from the flattened hands of the therapist by isometric alternate contraction of the forearm flexor and extensor muscles, to loosen and dislodge the airway secretions

4) Coughing – Coughing includes directed coughing and various assisted coughing techniques.

5) Forced expiratory technique – Forced expiratory techniques involve diaphragmatic inspiration, relaxing the scapulohumeral region, and expiring forcefully from mid to low lung volumes whilst maintaining an open glottis (huffing exercises). It is more effective than coughing.

So, get in touch with Ayursh and get home physiotherapy service and discover the potential of cardio physiotherapy in Bangalore.

CARDIAC REHABILITATION

Cardiac rehabilitation also called cardiac rehab or cardio physiotherapy is a customized outpatient program of exercise and education designed to help and improve your health and recover from a heart attack, or other forms of heart diseases or surgeries to treat heart diseases.

Why it’s Done

Cardio physiotherapy is an option for people with many forms of heart disease. In particular, you might benefit from cardiac rehabilitation if your medical history includes:

* Heart attack
* Coronary artery disease
* Heart failure
* Peripheral artery disease
* Chest pain (angina)
* Cardiomyopathy
* Certain congenital heart diseases
* Coronary artery bypass surgery
* Angioplasty and stents
* Heart or lung transplant
* Heart valve repair or replacement
* Pulmonary hypertension

What you can Expect….

The first stages of cardiac rehabilitation programs generally last about three months, but some people will follow the program longer. In special situations, some patients might be able to do an intensive program for several hours a day that can last one or two weeks.

Cardiac Rehabilitation Includes:

Medical evaluation – Your health care team will generally perform an initial evaluation to check your physical abilities,

Physical activity – Cardiac rehabilitation can improve your cardiovascular fitness through physical activity. Your health care team will likely suggest low impact activities that have a lower risk of injury, such as walking, cycling, rowing and jogging. Your program might include yoga, which has been shown in some studies to be beneficial for cardiac health. You’ll usually exercise at least three times a week.

Lifestyle education – This involves support and education on making healthy lifestyle changes, such as eating a heart-healthy diet, exercising regularly, maintaining a healthy weight and quitting smoking.

It can include guidance about managing conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol and obesity.

Results

To get the most benefits from cardiac rehabilitation, you’ll need to continue the habits and follow the skills you learned in the program for the rest of your life. Over the long term, sticking to your cardiac rehabilitation from a respected home physiotherapy in Bangalore clinic can help you:

* Improve Strength
* Adopt heart-healthy behaviours, such as regular exercise and a heart-healthy diet
* Cut bad habits, such as smoking
* Manage your weight
* Find ways to manage stress
* Learn how to cope with heart disease
* Decrease your risk of coronary artery disease and other heart conditions

Physical Therapy for Stroke Patients at Home

Stroke is the largest single cause of severe physical disability. Stroke occurs when blood supply to parts of the brain is interrupted. This deprives your brain of oxygen and nutrients which can cause your brain cells to die. At Ayursh, we offer specialized physical therapy for stroke patients at home. But before you look at that, let us take a look at strokes in general.

There are different types of strokes. Most common one is called as Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) which is also referred to as mini stroke which goes unnoticed many a times because of it’s asymptomatic attack, but it should be considered as a medical emergency. It serves as a warning sign for future stroke indicating that there is a partially blocked artery or clot source in the heart. The second most common is called Hemorrhagic stroke – rupturing of weakened blood vessels that bleeds into brain tissue. Last one is called Ischemic Stroke in which the blood clot stops the flow of the blood to part of the brain.

WHAT ARE THE WARNING SIGNS?

1. Weakness
2. Trouble Speaking
3. Vision Loss
4. Giddiness
5. Headache
6. Lack of Coordination

When a CVA (cerebrovascular attack) occurs, nerve cells in the affected area of the CNS (central nervous system) can’t function due to lack of oxygen. Surrounding tissues can be affected by an increase in swelling of the area. The spinal cord and brain are contained in rigid bones so swelling is constricted. Therefore, pressure within the CNS will compress soft nerve tissue.

Spinal cord CVA will result in complete (-plegia) or incomplete (-paresis) paralysis on both sides of the body depending on the level of injury in the spinal cord. Tetraplegia or tetraparesis (quadriplegia) involves the body and all four limbs. Paraplegia or paraparesis involves the lower part of the body. Effects of a spinal cord stroke can include alteration in mobility and function.

Brain CVA can affect the entire body, including paralysis or paresis (partial paralysis), cognitive and memory deficits, speech and visual issues, emotional difficulties, daily living challenges, and pain. Paralysis is a common outcome of stroke, often on one side of the body (hemiplegia). Paralysis may affect only the face, an arm or a leg, but most often, one entire side of the body and face is affected. A person who suffers a stroke in the left hemisphere (side) of the brain will show right-sided paralysis, or paresis. Likewise, a person with a stroke in the right hemisphere (side) will show deficits on the left side of the body.

TREATMENT AND RECOVERY

Stroke prevention measures should be undertaken to reduce your risk of both a spine or brain attack. This includes the main three preventions; diet, exercise and smoking cessation. Medication can also help reduce stroke risk.

Stroke rehabilitation should begin during the patient’s hospital admission. In most cases, physical therapy for stroke patients is recommended. Obviously, the degree of recovery is impacted by the age of the patient, severity of the attack, medical condition of the patient, motivation of the patient and family members.

HOW AYURSH HELPS IN POST STROKE CASES

We are one of the leading providers of physical therapy for stroke patients. Ayursh-Neuro physiotherapy is an individual centre that uses meaningful activities across the spectrum of physical and mental domains to reduce limitations after stroke. Rehabilitation is based on the concept of brain plasticity, which implies that it is possible to modulate or facilitate cerebral reorganization by external inputs. Rehabilitation activities are specifically geared to promote this re-education process and encourage the development of lost skills while accommodating for specific physical, cognitive or affective impairments. Principles of motor, sensory, cognitive and affective rehabilitation are incorporated into task-specific activities. The patient’s rehab program will be planned according to their environments for a successful recovery.

AYURSH REHABILITATION PROGRAMS

The goal in rehabilitation is to improve function so that an individual can become as independent as possible. This must be accomplished in a way that preserves dignity while motivating the individual to relearn basic skills such as eating, dressing and walking. Rehabilitation builds strength, capability, and confidence so a person can continue daily activities despite the effects of stroke.

Activities May Include The Following:

– Self-care skills such as feeding, grooming, bathing and dressing
– Mobility skills such as transferring, walking, or moving a wheelchair
– Communication skills; cognitive skills such as memory or problem-solving
– Social skills for interacting with other people
– Constraint induced therapy
– Functional electrical stimulation
– Partial weight supported walking
– Activity based exercise
– Music therapy
– Mirror therapy

Recovery from a stroke can take time. The return of function may look to be slow but the recovery rate continues to improve gradually.

It is a myth that the central nervous system does not attempt to recover. It is a myth that the nerve cells you are born with are the only ones you will have! But, in reality, the nervous system is capable of great improvement. It wants to repair itself and restore function through a process called plasticity. New nerve cells are being developed throughout your life. Keeping up with regular home exercises and getting routine physical therapy at home will help in faster recovery of stroke patients.

How Ayursh Helps to Treat Urinary Incontinence?

Urinary incontinence is a common problem that is often under-reported due to the embarrassing nature and social stigma attached. It can have a considerable effect on an individual’s quality of life. Incontinence is involuntary loss of urine, in which an individual will not have control over his/her bladder. At Ayursh, we offer physiotherapist home service that offers effective and long term relief from such issues.

Factors that might cause Urinary Incontinence

Though it occurs more often as people get older, urinary incontinence isn’t an inevitable consequence of ageing. If urinary incontinence affects your daily activities, don’t hesitate to see your doctor. For most people, simple lifestyle and dietary changes or medical care can treat symptoms of urinary incontinence.

Proper diagnosis is therefore necessary for urinary incontinence

There are different types of incontinence

COMMON TYPES

1) Stress incontinence – is the incontinence triggered by movements such as coughing, sneezing, laughing, jumping, weight lifting or exercise (any movement increasing intra abdominal pressure).

This is caused because of sphincter dysfunction due to pelvic floor weakness.

2) Urge incontinence (overactive bladder) – involuntary leakage of urine accompanied by or immediately preceded by urgency.

This is caused due to involuntary or uninhibited detrusor contractions and due to detrusor muscle instability.

RARE TYPES

3) Overflow incontinence – unexpected leakage of small amounts of urine because of an overfilled bladder.

This is caused because of an contractile detrusor usually seen in diabetic neuropathy.

4) Mixed incontinence – involuntary leakage associated with urgency and also with exertion, effort, sneezing or coughing

Caused because of combination of urethral and bladder dysfunction

WHEN TO SEE DOCTOR?

You may feel uncomfortable discussing incontinence with your doctor. But if incontinence is frequent or is affecting your quality of life, it’s important to seek medical advice because urinary incontinence may:

● Cause you to restrict your activities and limit your social interactions
● Negatively impact your quality of life
● Increase the risk of falls in older adults as they rush to the toilet
● Indicate a more serious underlying condition

How to Get More from Your Home Physiotherapy in Bangalore?

Getting home physiotherapy in Bangalore would give you the best of both worlds. You would be able to get world-class Physiotherapy treatment and you don’t have to go anywhere. But physiotherapy is not the only way to live a healthier and better life. In the following post, we would take a look at some of the tips that you should follow to live a life free from pains and body aches and how you can get the most when you book a physiotherapist home service in Bangalore.

Tips for the Workplace

Since most of us spend a lot of time in our workplace, let’s start with seeing how you can work better and avoid stress as that might lead to chronic pains and other critical health issues. Here are some of the things that you could do to work better.

– When you take a break, avoid surfing the web or answering texts. You need to get up from your seat every couple of hours, take a short walk and stretch your legs
– Do some stretches at your desk every twenty minutes to half an hour. These would loosen up your shoulder and neck, which often tend to get stiff due to the stress of work
– Always maintain an upright posture
– Sit close to your work station
– Always keep your monitor at eye level
– Your legs should be flexed at 90-degree angle with your feet resting comfortably

What to Do After an Injury

When you have injured your body, specifically if you have sustained a soft tissue injury, it is best to adopt the RICE method – Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation. This helps to accelerate your recovery

– Rest is important for the body to heal. Without proper rest, the injured area could become inflamed, more painful, and the chances of further injury would go up
– Ice also helps in reducing inflammation and pain. To protect your skin we recommend that the ice be placed within a towel before wrapping around the injured area
– Compression acts in reducing the swelling and pain
– Elevation helps to reduce blood flow to the affected area

Once you’ve followed RICE, as above, please give us a call and find out how our home physiotherapy service can help you

TALK WITH YOUR THERAPIST

Communicating with your physical therapist is an efficient way to maximize the benefits of treatment. It’s always important to communicate with your therapist. Let your therapist know if something is hurting you or if you’re experiencing difficulty during treatment. Even though its common for exercises to cause some discomfort and most of the time, they might be minor issues, but still make sure you inform your physiotherapist about the same.

KEEP A RECOVERY JOURNAL

A recovery journal is a great way to log your progress as you get better. It is recommended that you record the date of the sessions, what was done and if you have faced any discomfort either during the session or after, make sure that you write it down as well.

Share your findings with your therapist. This would help in tracking the progress and they would be able to customize your therapy to adapt to the issue. Recovery tends to get slow at times. Having a record helps you see just how far you’ve come. During our initial sessions for home physiotherapy in Bangalore, we recommend that our patients follow a detailed journal

PUT YOUR COMMITMENT

The number of physiotherapy sessions you have for therapy often depends on your injury or the ailment that you are facing. Minor injuries may only need a few sessions, while more serious injuries may take several weeks or months. When we offer home physiotherapy in Bangalore, we develop an optimized treatment that would help you to recover fast. It also depends on how seriously you take the treatment.

You would need to stick to appointments as that is key to a speedy recovery. Don’t skip any sessions; make sure you stay on track concerning recuperation.
