Nexus Physioconcepts - Baner & Pimple Saudagar

Nexus offers physiotherapy care, rehab, and advice for elderly people. This form of therapy is used to enhance fitness levels, regain mobility, lower pain, and offer additional benefits such as revitalized movements and confidence. It offers solutions on a wide range of issues related to aging population. There are many conditions that impact people as they grow older and they include following:

  • Arthritis
  • Alzheimer’s disease
  • Osteoporosis
  • Balance disorders
  • Hip and joint replacement
  • Incontinence

Physical therapy can also help older adults in dealing with one of the widespread issues, balance disorder. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly one-third of people over the age of 65 fall each year. This contributes to the fall being the leading cause of injury among senior citizens. It may lead to hip fractures, which in turn, leads to a downward health spiral. Recovery from hip fractures needs hospitalization for a minimum of a week, with approximately 20% of them dying within a year. Unfortunately, the remaining 80% do not return to their previous level of functioning.

Physical therapy at Nexus and guidance from seasoned physiotherapist can help older adults to remain strong, independent, and productive for their entire lifetime.

Electro-combo therapy

The combination therapies in physiology have been offering various benefits to patients such as saving time. The electro-combo therapy at Nexus helps patients in faster healing of damaged or injured muscles and tissues. Various therapies have been combined for relieving pain. Electrical muscle stimulation, interferential therapy (IMF), and ultrasound therapies are combined. The electrical muscle stimulation is carried out to send an electric signal to injured muscles and tissues to activate pain-relieving system in the body. In IMF, low frequency stimulations are sent for healing of damaged tissues. However, ultrasound creates sound waves that travel into soft tissues and enhances circulation in those areas to relax and heal them. The combination of these therapies helps in improving efficiency of the treatment, following the proper planning.
