Why does your pain keep coming back?

13 Mar Why does your pain keep coming back?

Have you ever felt disappointed to find that your pain has returned a few weeks or months after seeing a Physio?

At Physio Fit Studio, we teach our patients that pain is the last symptom to manifest and the first symptom to go. Pain is simply your body’s way of letting you know that you have a problem and it needs your attention! 

But did you know that for most issues we treat (the majority of which seemingly develop out of nowhere) there are numerous signs that we can identify – and treat – well before you find yourself in pain?

One of the more frustrating things about being a Physio is watching as a client ceases their treatment prematurely because the pain has gone, or their discomfort is at a level that is manageable. Unfortunately, but not surprisingly, the same client often returns to the clinic with an identical problem a month later – sometimes even worse than the first time. 

This is because they ceased treatment once they got on top of their pain – but they did not address their underlying problem.

As physiotherapists, we understand that rehabilitation is an essential part of the treatment journey and a worthwhile investment of your time.  A little commitment now will save you from experiencing chronic pain in the long run. 

At Physio Fit Studio, we have come up with an innovative tool to help break this pattern…

Introducing the Physio Fit Fire chart! 

Based on the well-known Fire Danger Rating Chart, it offers a simple way for your Physio Fit physiotherapist to communicate at what phase you are in at each session, assisting your overall treatment journey from pain to wellness.

So get off the hamster wheel of repetitive injuries and find out how a properly managed physiotherapy program can help you find a stronger, healthier and happier YOU today!
