QuickPhys treatments are based on common sense and practical solutions.
If body tissues are exposed to an abnormal mechanical force then a change must be made.
QuickPhys can help make this change by stretching, strengthening and by promoting changes to patterns of movement and posture. Additional things like footwear can influence the problem as too can a well placed support cushion.
QuickPhys can also recognise when surgery is required. Surgery can change an abnormal mechanical force by removing a section of bone or stabilising a joint by repairing a ligament or completely replacing a joint surface that is severely worn.
As well as managing the mechanical problem there is also the issue of increased inflammatory response.A lot of people will be aware that the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories has been criticised for causing stomach and cardiac related problems.A viable alternative for the management of inflammation can be injection therapy of corticosteroids.At QuickPhys the clinicians are skilled in the administration and dosage of steroid injections.Quickphys can assess the extent of inflamed tissue using ultrasound scanners and also ensure the injection is placed at the right spot.
Not only does this improve the chance of success it also means a low dose of steroid can be used minimising any risk of side effects and optimising the treatment benefits.
