How Can Physiotherapy Help?
• Most times, DOMS goes away within eight to 10 days. However, there are ways to speed up healing and shorten recovery time.
• Physiotherapy appears to be particularly effective for managing muscle soreness. Depending on the severity of pain, your therapist can recommend myofasial release with special tools,vibration therapy, shockwave therapy cryotherapy, ultrasound, trigger point dry needling, or electrical stimulation. Preventive training, foam rolling, and stretching can help too.
• Physiotherapy not only relieves muscle pain and soreness, but also boosts sports performance by increasing joint flexibility and range of motion. Regular sessions can improve physical function, which allows you to work out harder for longer periods of time. Additionally, this therapy helps prevent injuries and reduce the wear and tear caused by exercise. Regardless of your fitness level, it maximizes your potential for success.
