Movement as freedom
Physiotherapy deals with the limbs of the musculoskeletal system. With specific exercises, it helps to balance disharmonious movement patterns, strengthen muscles, correct incorrect postures and promote the joy of moving – with the aim of experiencing movement as freedom and increasing the physical range of action.
It helps to mitigate pain, overcome movement restrictions, stimulate coordination and strengthen muscles. After the thorough anamnesis, the physical findings are discussed with the patient and, together with the therapist, the targeted measures developed from massages, active movement therapy, manual mobilisation and behavioural instructions to avoid pain in the patient’s everyday life. The physiotherapy options at Casa Andrea Cristoforo range from osteopathy to craniosacral therapy.
Physiotherapy is used, among other things, for:
- Orthopaedics
- Rheumatology
- Neurology
- Post-traumatic
- Postsurgical and
- Stress and tension-related problems.
Dry-Needling is a special therapy. This technique comes from myofascial trigger point therapy. Acupuncture needles are used to relieve muscular tension.
