An advanced specialty area of physical therapy practice that is based on manual examination and treatment techniques integrated with exercise, patient education, and other physical therapy modalities to address pain, loss of function, and wellness.
Trigger-point dry needling is an invasive procedure where a fine needle is inserted into the skin and muscle. It targets myofascial trigger points - hyperirritable spots palpable as nodules in the taut bands of skeletal muscles. Trigger point dry needling can be performed at either superficial or deep tissue levels. LifeCharge Physiotherapists are trained and certified in dry needling.
Thermotherapy (heat therapy) is a procedure that involves the application of superficial heat to injured or damaged body parts. The heat alters tissue temperatures in targeted regions. These temperature increases make the tissues more extensible. Patients report experiencing pain relief and faster healing. That’s because this therapy technique improves blood circulation. The heat triggers vasodilatation (increasing blood flow) in the soft tissues. As a result, the tissues’ extensibility and metabolic rates also increase. The target tissues heal fast. The heat doesn’t impact surrounding areas. These are among many other benefits.
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy treatment (ESWT) is a clinically proven treatment available for patients presenting primarily with chronic tendon disorders. This is a successful second line treatment for patients who fail to respond to appropriate conservative management including physiotherapy. It is a procedure where sound waves of energy are passed through the skin to the injured part of the body using a special device. The shockwaves are mechanical and not electric and work by increasing blood flow to the injured area. This accelerates the body’s healing process.
Traction is a manual technique designed to reduce pressure on affected vertebral discs that are causing pain. Traction is a manual ‘stretching’ of the spine which reduces pressure on the discs and therefore reduces the individual’s pain.
Wax therapy is a deep heat treatment method wherein applying heat improves mobility by heating the connective tissues. The therapy uses molten paraffin wax application to the connecting tissues, causing the muscles to relax. This therapeutic treatment is primarily used for pain in the hands and feet. Combining the therapy with personalized exercises and other mobilizing techniques can help. This process improves joint mobility by enhancing the mobility of the joints.
Helps in painless healing, reduces swelling, relieves pain, and speeds injury recovery.
Stimulates nerves for pain relief in conditions like musculoskeletal pain, and fibromyalgia, using adhesive pads and inducing tingling sensations.
Uses adhesive Kinesiotape for pain, muscle/joint function, and swelling.
Robotic devices have revolutionised rehabilitation by providing innovative solutions to enhance recovery for individuals with various physical impairments. These advanced systems are designed to aid in restoring motor functions, improving mobility, and enhancing the overall quality of life for patients. LifeCharge integrates robotics into rehabilitation therapy.
LifeCharge uses therapeutic exercises that involve movement prescribed to correct impairments, restore muscular and skeletal function and/or maintain a state of well-being

Electrotherapy is a non-invasive medical treatment that uses electrical impulses to stimulate the body’s natural healing process. These electrical impulses are delivered to the body through electrodes placed on the skin, and they can be adjusted in frequency, intensity, and duration to target specific areas of the body.
