When we listen to the word ‘physiotherapy’, one of the most often in the game is thinking that a player who is hurt in a game is cured. At the same time, a patient who does not move after a fracture or someone else suffering from a chronic back pain. That is, ‘Physiotherapy’ was the decade-long branch, which was stuck in the mold of ‘Only-Jakham’. However, today’s physiotherapy has gone a long way to rehabilitate bones, joints and wounds.

In India, about 3-5% of the employees are suffering from chronic fatigue, low sleep or physical pain due to stress. Despite the role of physiotherapy in this situation, it is often neglected due to adequate information and lack of corruption.

Approach

“If I am not injured, why should I go to the physiotherapist?” This is still the most questioned question, so physiotherapy needs to be changed not only from the injury, but also to increase body efficiency, agility and competence, as well as the maintenance of the body. The active and unanimous role of daily health problems such as stress is limited.

The stress created by the lifestyle, the more time in front of the screen, the distant journey and the stressful jobs are increasing physical and mental fatigue. Stress is not just in mind; He also makes his mark on the body. Symptoms of tight muscles, changing breathing, incorrect sustainability, broken sleep, constant headaches, even digestive problems are all symptoms of ‘overloaded’ stress to the body.

Physiotherapy interferes with and plays an important role. These include breathing training, manual therapy and re -training of movements, the “Fight or Flight” system is calm. So the ‘Rest and Digest’ reaction is strong and the body’s balance is re -established. Cortisol and adrenaline are reduced due to the calming therapy (relaxation). So the natural chemicals (GABA) of the seterotone and the brain help to help to achieve sleep and relief. This makes the patient a good movement and can sleep quietly and gets very quickly.

Anyone can start controlling the muscular system by the respiratory process for 5 to 5 minutes. The exercise of the neck and shoulder loose for 5 minutes is then to reduce the stiffness of the muscles. Then it increases blood circulation for 5 minutes of running or walking on a place. Then the body should exercise half the seating five times from the room to the lower part. Finally, by following the physio for 2-3 minutes, the day should be finished with a guide walking and breathing. This increases the energy of the person fresh and the body. In these methods, we can protect long -term health by giving only 5 minutes.

Beyond rehabilitation

From a multi -dimensional point of view, physiotherapists in pediatrics help children who are delayed in the development of children or congenital disadvantages. In the health of women, they can play an important role in pregnancy, post -maternity care and pelvic care. The subject of this year’s Physiotherapy Day is ‘Healthy Aging’, that is, it also emphasizes not only to increase physical activity, exercise, mobility, but also to maintain the freedom to maintain the balance while walking.

Prevention

In a new perspective, ‘maintaining health’ from ‘cure illness’ is changing. Physiotherapy is the first priority for long -term health protection to improve poster before back pain, respiratory training, or improving movement to save energy. As much as it is to strengthen the muscles or joints, it is useful for controlling stress and hormones.

Misunderstanding, raising awareness

Many old misconceptions around physiotherapy are mainly due to lack of awareness. Often she is considered to be the last phase of medical or surgery. But it is actually the first phase of the preventive, restored and unanimous healthcare. There is a joint between the drug, the lifestyle and the health. Therefore, physiotherapy is becoming the required science of the 7th century. If you have a movement, breathing and growing body, you can benefit from physiotherapy, that is simple.
