Those who have suffered injury or disease affecting the muscles, bones, ligaments, or tendons of the body will benefit from our physical therapy sessions.

During your first physical therapy session, the therapist at NSOC will ask you questions about your medical history and complete a physical evaluation and proper intervention.

The therapy session consists of one-on-one treatment which may include manual therapy, exercises, education and specific functional training. Modalities (ultrasound, electrical stimulation, iontophoresis, traction, kinesio taping etc.) are also utilized for pain management, reduction of swelling, and home programmes that help return to function.

Physical Therapy Exercises

For individuals suffering arm or leg pain, the mere thought of exercise and movement can be painful.

To return to activity, and relieve symptoms, your therapist rely heavily on moving the sore joint or limb to restore essential flexibility and range of motion in the joint.

The goal of exercise is to strengthen the muscles.Many people with leg or arm problems can still move the limb through a certain range of motion without pain, or with only mild discomfort.

Therapists in Kenya at NSOC will begin your exercise program by working in those zones, which are relatively comfortable, and through these exercises, expand those zones to a wider range.

They also introduce Active Range Of Motion (AROM) exercises which help to gently increase range of motion and decrease stiffness.
