Physiotherapy

Percutaneous Intratisular Electrolysis EPI® is a revolutionary invasive physiotherapy method that applies a continuous electric current through a needle in the painful area guided by ultrasound, this causes a series of biological, mechanical, biomechanical and functional changes in a musculoskeletal tissue.

• For which pathologies it is indicated:
  • Tendinitis
  • Chronic tendinosis
  • Muscle fibrosis
  • Ligamentous Fibrosis
  • Myofascial pain
  • Bursitis
  • Capsular retractions
  • Nerve injuries

• The Procedure:
  • Diagnosis and assessment
  • Treatment: a blunt, flexible needle is introduced directly into the target tissue under ultrasound guidance so that it is local, precise and focused.

• Efficacy: under optimal conditions, the effects would be noticed 2-3 days after treatment.

Percutaneous neuromodulation (PNM) is an invasive physical therapy technique that works directly on the nervous system through the introduction of a needle guided by ultrasound through which low frequency current is applied to electrically stimulate the nerve or muscle to improve its function.

• For which pathologies it is indicated:
  • Arthrosis
  • Muscle ruptures
  • Tendinopathies
  • Sprains
  • Dislocations
  • Low back pain

• The Procedure:
  • Diagnosis and assessment
  • Treatment: needles are introduced intratissularly in the vicinity of the peripheral nerve and a low-frequency electrical impulse is introduced.
  • No hospitalization is required in most cases.

• Efficacy: after therapy, pain is generally considerably relieved as well as motor activity by decreasing tension and increasing strength over the quality of movement. In case of injury, recovery times would be reduced. On the other hand, tissue oxygenation would be improved and the patient’s functional system would be rebalanced.

Osteopathy is a non-invasive manual physiotherapeutic treatment used to treat injuries, relieve discomfort and pain through the recovery of organic balance.

• For which pathologies it is indicated:
  • Cervical pain
  • Neuralgias
  • Torticollis
  • Back pain
  • Low back pain
  • Neuralgia of vertebral origin
  • Peripheral compression syndrome
  • Trauma
  • Tendinopathies
  • Visceral problems: cardiorespiratory, gynecological and digestive systems.
  • Headaches
  • Vertigo
  • Migraines
  • Sinusitis
  • TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders

• Type
  • Structural: restores the musculoskeletal system and posture, with emphasis on the spine and other joints.
  • Visceral: restores the disorder of organs, improving their functionality.
  • Cranial: restores cranial ailments and their impact on the central nervous system.

• The Procedure:
  • Diagnosis and assessment
  • Treatment: the manual technique is performed on the affected area.

Myofascial therapy is a non-invasive manual physiotherapeutic treatment that seeks the release of the connective tissue called fascia when it suffers a dysfunction. This tissue covers our entire body, including, organs, tendons, ligaments, nerves, blood vessels, etc; it allows our body to support itself, maintain structure and connection together. In this connection lies its importance, so any trauma, blow or surgery will affect it directly generating possible discomfort and pain not only on the area but also in other parts of the body in response to the tension that produces the core of the pain.

• The Procedure:
  • Diagnosis and assessment
  • Treatment: through the different manual therapeutic techniques, we will eliminate the restrictions present in the fascial tissue and achieve the balance and correct dynamics of the fascial system through pressure and gentle and sustained stretching.
  • Continuity: stretching, posture re-education, good motor control, breathing exercises, exercises to gain flexibility, can help us to keep the fascia healthy and prevent possible affectations.

• Efficiency: under optimal conditions:
  • Decreased pain
  • Improve joint mobility
  • Frees overloaded tissues
  • Improves blood and lymphatic circulation
  • Aids in the elimination of toxins
  • Restores body balance
  • Prevents future injuries and alterations
