Physical therapy is a comprehensive medical science that aims to restore motor function and improve muscle and joint efficiency after injuries, surgeries, or chronic illnesses.
It is considered one of the branches of complementary medicine most closely linked to modern science, as it relies on the principles of anatomy and physiology to strengthen the body and enhance its performance.
Goals of Physical Therapy
Restoring normal movement after injuries or surgeries.
Reducing chronic pain in the joints and spine.
Strengthening muscles and improving motor balance.
Preventing complications of impaired movement or partial paralysis.
Retraining the patient to perform daily activities independently.
Treatment Methods
At Dr. Hudhaifa Al-Muhammadi’s clinic, we use a range of modern scientific methods, including:
- Electrical muscle stimulation to improve blood flow and strengthen weak muscles.
- Heat and cold therapy to relieve inflammation and spasms.
- Manual therapy to release tight joints and restore their movement.
- Therapeutic exercises designed to improve balance, flexibility, and strength.
Supervision and Evaluation
The program begins with a comprehensive evaluation by a specialist to determine the causes of the impairment and the type of sessions required. Progress is monitored periodically until the condition is fully stabilized and quality of life is improved.
