The Hidden Positive Effects of Physiotherapy You Should Know About

By: BryanKelly (Psst, View author in Google Plus) Date: Mar 10th, 2017

There are many reasons people seek the services of a physiotherapist. They may be experiencing pain or limited function in their joints that affects their mobility. Though these are common reasons to initially start physiotherapy, there are many other positive side effects that can make it even more worthwhile for you.

You May Be Surprised by Some of the Healthy Benefits of Physiotherapy to the Body

 

Following are three less-known benefits of physiotherapy that might surprise you.

Physiotherapy Rudiments Can Make Your Digestive System Work Better

You’ll Sleep Much Better

Pain or restriction in movement can interfere with your sleep by not allowing you to sleep in a comfortable position. Physiotherapists aim to restore movement and function through exercises and techniques that strengthen the muscles and joints. After a regular regimen of said exercises and physiotherapy, you will find your natural agility and mobility restored.

With increased movement and reduced pain, you’ll be able to find more comfortable positions when lying in bed. Better sleep alone can markedly improve your health and your entire body's rhythms.

Moreover, you may find your body and mind are more relaxed because of the increased activity induced by physiotherapy.

Adjust Your Digestive System

A poor digestive system can cause lower back pain and spasms. Conversely, poor movement and posture can limit your digestive ability. If you find yourself constipated or suffering abdominal pains, then stretching and exercising with a physiotherapist may actually start to help over time.

As you work your muscles in your abdominal region on a regular basis, you are effectively flexing your colon and digestive system in general, depending on the exercises you select. Gradually, you may start to notice more pleasant functioning in this area and reduced pain as a result.

Breathe Easier

When your movement is reduced, your chest muscles weaken, which can affect your mood and cause breathlessness. Because you can’t breathe properly, you tend to avoid activities which require exertion, further perpetuating the condition.

Physiotherapy promotes the proper functioning of your respiratory system in many ways. For a start, your therapist will show you regular exercises and associated breathing techniques that allow your airways to open up.

The relaxation induced by this treatment alone can remedy poor breathing due to anxiety or conditions such as COPD and asthma.

While you may not necessarily go to a physiotherapist to achieve any of these side effects, the potential of their manifestation further demonstrates why so many people find physiotherapy such a desirable treatment. Make sure you consult with a trusted physiotherapist to ensure you are getting the treatment you need and deserve.
