What Is Connect Therapy?
ConnectTherapy™ is a physiotherapy assessment and treatment approach that looks at your body as a whole to determine the underlying cause of your pain or symptoms. It is based on the understanding that all areas of the body are interconnected, and how an issue in one area of the body can cause pain and dysfunction somewhere else. You will notice the difference right from the start, as the physiotherapist will assess you from head-to-toe, looking for any alignment issues that could be contributing to your areas of concern. The physiotherapist will then test these alignment issues to determine which ones are the ‘drivers’ of your pain. The treatment plan is then highly individualized. It focuses on releasing and re-training your drivers to correct your body’s alignment and ultimately improve pain, restore mobility, and regain strength to allow you to reach your functional goals.
This type of assessment is particularly effective for the following types of pain or injuries:
- Persistent or chronic pain that hasn’t responded to more traditional
- assessment and treatment methods
- Unresolving or recurring tendonitis, tendonopathies or joint pain
- Mild to moderate osteoarthritis
- Neuropathic pain or a hyper-sensitive nervous system
- Pain in multiple areas of the body
- TMJ pain
- Headaches
If you are wondering if this is the right approach for you, please call to book with one of our highly trained ConnectTherapy™ physiotherapists.
