Learn about the 3-pronged approach of physiotherapy: Preventive-Curative-Rehabilitative

BY SMITI JAIN NARAYAN

8th September 2021 is World Physiotherapy Day. It’s the day to bring back into focus one of the most potent tools of wellness available to us today – Physiotherapy! Welcome to Perfect Bounce, the brain behind which is the indomitable Dr Richa Singh, a lady of grit, determination and passion to drive home the multifarious advantages of physiotherapy to all levels of patients, especially those in sports.

With the recently concluded Tokyo Olympics and currently ongoing Paralympics, sports are centre-stage once again after the extended ordeal of the pandemic, and we have seen that it takes a sportsperson to be “faster, higher, stronger” in both body and mind in order to stay in top form and perform optimally – all crucial qualities that can be inculcated and boosted further with a good physiotherapy regimen on their side to support them.

Dr Richa Singh, a well-established name in sports physiotherapy, has been treating and healing athletes and other sportspersons for years now, in India as well as on the international arena. The founder of Perfect Bounce, Bangalore’s leading physiotherapy centre, she has devised a 3-pronged approach

to physiotherapy to reap its benefits to the fullest, namely, Preventive, Curative, Rehabilitative physiotherapy.

Preventive physiotherapy focusses on whole body alignment correction, gait analysis as well as food and nutritional correction. The steps involve first, a personal consultation with the doctor for a complete physical assessment to determine the current condition and fitness level. Then a qualified and trained physiotherapist will work closely with the person to bring them to optimum body fitness, through exercises, minor treatments and corrections where needed, and regular follow-ups to keep them ready for the intense physical activity, effectively making the body groundwork strong for them to optimise their performance on the field.

Even for lay people who may not be into sports, preventive physiotherapy needs to become part of their regular health regimen. Just as we periodically visit a medical doctor for routine check-ups, in the same way, even a physiotherapy consultation should be done as a preventive for correcting body alignments in the initial stages itself, without waiting for a full blown debilitating condition before taking action. In fact, a preventive session may well ensure that one doesn’t need to progress to the next phase of condition at all!

Curative physiotherapy comes next. This is the stage of active treatment through various physiotherapy tools like manual therapy, dry needling, cupping and others depending on requirement and severity of condition.

Exercise & rehabilitation space at Perfect Bounce clinic

For sportspersons, it means planned treatment sessions and focussed exercises for sports injuries, mostly muscle and ligament related, which are a common fallout of professional or active sports. The intensity, types and duration of the treatments is planned based on the individual’s condition and will differ from person to person. Extent of injury, nutritional factor, any pre-existing condition or comorbidity factor, overall patient physical and mental state – all these are taken into account before a comprehensive treatment plan is put into place for complete healing to take place.

The same applies to non-sports persons, where their individual condition will determine the doctor’s customised treatment plan to cure and heal them through various physiotherapy treatment options.

PHYSIOTHERAPY TREATMENTS:

l Dry Needling: An intervention therapy to treat musculoskeletal pain that involves insertion of micro, monofilament needles directly into the tissues. l Cupping: A therapeutic treatment to increase blood flow and loosen connective tissues.

l MFR (Myofacial Release): A hands-on technique with gentle sustained pressure to eliminate pain and restore movement. l IASTM (Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue

Mobilisation): Largely manual therapy with specially designed instruments, to provide mobilising effect to scar tissue and myofacial adhesions. l Sports Taping: Dynamic Tape designed to work mechanically and Rehabilitative physiotherapy is required neurophysiologically to address in cases of serious muscle injuries, ligament lymphatic drainage and normalise tears or other conditions which not only need neuromuscular function. active treatment but also need to be sustained l Manipulation, HVT & Mobilisation: Manual for the patient to be fit optimally for future therapy and soft tissue massage, High activity. The treatment plan is aimed at

This stage is often the most neglected one, as the patient feels good and strong after being cured, thereby disregarding the need to continue a physiotherapy regimen. In actuality, the rehabilitative prong is very crucial in maintaining optimum fitness over the long term whether one is a professional sportsperson or a regular individual carrying on with regular life activities, for sustained good health.

Perfect Bounce is the perfect recourse to complete physiotherapy treatments across all stages, under one roof, under the expert guidance of Dr Richa Singh with her team of well-trained physiotherapists and fully equipped clinic to offer comprehensive and end-to-end support.
