Why Physiotherapists Emphasize Prevention
As
humans we often have to be motivated in some way before we actually take to action on so many tasks. Life is busy and our “list” of “to do’s” can seem endless and can add considerable stress to our lives.

PAIN is not only a great motivator to call us to action to address health problems we face, it is also a considerable stress. When we are in pain our ability to function is compromised and it can become impossible to cross many things off that “list.”
It may be surprising to know that physiotherapists and chiropractors and massage therapists have extensive training, not only in treating existing painful dysfunctions, but in preventing these dysfunctions from manifesting by identifying predisposing factors and working on their correction.
