PARALYSIS

 Paralysis is the loss of muscle function in part of your body. It happens when something goes wrong with the way messages pass between your brain and muscles. Paralysis can be complete or partial. It can occur on one or both sides of your body. It can also occur in just one area, or it can be widespread

Cause of paralysis

In most cases, people get paralysis as the result of an accident or a medical condition that affects the way muscles and nerves function. The most common causes of paralysis include: Stroke. Spinal cord injury.

Early symptoms of paralysis

1.Sudden numbness

2. paralysis or weakness of an arm

3. leg or side of the face

4. Slurred or abnormal speech

 5.Loss of consciousness.

What are the types of paralysis?
  • monoplegia, which affects only one arm or leg.
  • hemiplegia, which affects one arm and one leg on the same side of your body.
  • paraplegia, which affects both of your legs.
  • quadriplegia, or tetraplegia, which affects both of your arms and both of your legs.
  • Physiotherapists help people affected by injury, illness or disability through movement and exercise, manual therapy, education and advice. They maintain health for people of all ages, helping patients to manage pain and prevent disease
  • What is best treatment for paralysis?
    Physical therapy uses treatments such as heat, massage, and exercise to stimulate nerves and muscles. Occupational therapy concentrates on ways to perform activities of daily living. Mobility aids include manual and electric wheelchairs and scooters. Supportive devices include braces, canes, and walkers
  • Overall Physiotherapy play a very important role for paralysis patients We Physiotherapist brings patient from bed to on toes again with the grace of God .
  • the hands of physiotherapist are very well said healing hands as our hands work as weapon in order to deal with paralysis
  • Thanks and Regards

APPLICATIONS OF LASER THERAPY

Image
  Introduction: Physiotherapy, the practice of restoring movement and function to those affected by injury, illness, or disability, has evolved significantly over the years. One of the most groundbreaking advancements in this field is the integration of laser therapy. Laser therapy, also known as photo biomodulation therapy or low-level laser therapy (LLLT), utilizes light energy to stimulate healing and reduce pain. In this blog, we delve into the principles, applications, and benefits of laser therapy in physiotherapy. Understanding Laser Therapy: Laser therapy involves the use of specific wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin and stimulate cellular activity. These wavelengths interact with the body's tissues at a cellular level, triggering various physiological responses. Unlike surgical lasers that cut or burn tissue, therapeutic lasers used in physiotherapy deliver low levels of light that do not generate heat and are non-invasive. Mechanism of Action: At the cellular...

Motor points( Upper Limb)

Image
 Motor point is a small area on a muscle at which the minimal amount of electrical stimulation will cause muscle to contract. How to find motor point To locate your own  motor point  more accurately, you can move the positive electrode slightly (red cable) and watch where the muscle response is the best (strongest twitch of the same intensity). The  motor point  pen is an accessory that is sold separately in order to  find  the  motor point Motor points of upper limb Placement of electrodes is very important  red and black electrode cat is black black is active means pen electrode will be black while red one will be pad electrode. .
