Calgary Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation
The Kinetic Performance Center Calgary Advantage
Physiotherapy takes into account the entire health and well-being of the individual, providing patients with the education and tools they need to fulfill the critical role they will need to play in the long-term maintenance of their rehabilitation. Kinetic Performance Center Physiotherapists employ a range of alternative treatments for those patients affected by disability, injury, or long-term medical conditions to achieve a reduction in pain and a restoration of movement and function in affected areas.
IMS (Intramuscular Stimulation) or Dry NeedlingIMS is able to treat neuropathic pain by desensitizing affected nerves and muscles using acupuncture needles. It is important to note that there is no use of electricity with IMS, rather it is the mechanical simulation of the insertion of the needle into the affected muscles that provides the therapeutic effect. The needle activates a reflex causing the muscle to release and in doing so, eases the pain and stimulates the body to increase local circulation and activate its healing system..
