Re-Injury Prevention
Any, even a small injury, fall or trauma may cause muscle imbalance, restriction of movement, deficits of body’s response to sudden movement and create a sure way of increased wear and tear of our tendons, ligaments and joint cartilage. All these changes lead to decay of our body parts with increased possibility of developing painful conditions, limited mobility with increased risk of re-injury and falling.
We see people all the time who assume that their impaired mobility, balance and mobility issues are due to their age or their medical condition and think that nothing can be done.
Most of them had an injury years ago, have never gone for the treatment, or never completed it as it appeared to them as not significant enough or the injured body part was not painful any more. Often, they come to us with another problem, which appears distant from that old injury. After a thorough assessment, we often discover that the malfunctioning of another body part is linked to that old injury, which has been silent, i.e. not causing any pain, leading them to think that everything was OK.
