DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A STRAIN AND A SPRAIN

Strains and sprains are common injuries that affect various parts of the body. A strain involves
an injured muscle, while a sprain refers to a ligament injury. For a serious strain or sprain,
physiotherapy can support recovery by helping to reduce pain, restore mobility, and prevent
further injury to the area.

TREATING WHIPLASH

Whiplash is a painful injury that occurs due to the sudden and forceful jerking of the head backward and then forward, typically during a vehicle accident. Whiplash is also known as a cervical acceleration-deceleration injury, and serious whiplash may warrant physiotherapy to help address pain and restore proper neck movement.

With summer in full swing, it is important to remember to use sunscreen to protect the skin; to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids; and to avoid vigorous activities during the hottest hours of the day. These tips can help prevent painful and unnecessary injuries that can disrupt your
summer fun.
