Common Conditions

At Mimico Physiotherapy, we treat a wide range of common conditions:

Neck Pain: Often caused by poor posture or overuse, neck pain can result in stiffness and difficulty moving your head. It can be treated with physical therapy, medication, and sometimes surgery.

Mechanical Back Pain: This is a general term referring to any type of back pain caused by placing abnormal stress and strain on muscles of the vertebral column. Typically, it's treated with rest, physical therapy and pain relievers.

Sciatica: This condition occurs when the sciatic nerve is pinched, leading to pain that radiates down the leg. Treatment usually involves physiotherapy exercises, medication for pain relief and in severe cases surgery.

Tennis Elbow: Often resulting from overuse of arm muscles or a specific injury, tennis elbow causes outer elbow pain. Treatment includes rest, physiotherapy and sometimes surgery for severe cases.

Golfers Elbow: Similar to tennis elbow but affects the inner part of your elbow causing inflammation in tendons that control wrist movements. Resting the affected area alongside physiotherapy treatments are common solutions.

Carpal Tunnel: This condition is characterized by numbness or tingling in your hand due to a pinched nerve in your wrist. It's typically treated with wrist splints, lifestyle changes, medication or surgery if needed.

Thumb Tendinitis: Inflammation or irritation of the tendon often due to repetitive use results in thumb tendinitis causing thumb or wrist pain. Treatment includes rest along with anti-inflammatory medications and physiotherapy sessions for strengthening exercises.

Groin Pain: Commonly experienced by athletes involved in sports that require sudden direction changes; groin injuries can be acute or chronic. The treatment usually consists of resting the affected area along with cold compresses followed by gradual strength training as part of physical therapy treatment plan after acute symptoms subside.

Headaches: While there are many types such as tension headaches or migraines; most headaches aren't an indicator of a serious health issue and can often be relieved with rest, hydration or over-the-counter medications.

ACL/PCL Injury: Injuries to the anterior or posterior cruciate ligaments, commonly known as ACL or PCL injuries, are often seen in athletes. They usually require surgical treatment followed by extensive physiotherapy rehabilitation.

Meniscus Injury: A tear in the meniscus, a piece of cartilage in your knee that acts as a shock absorber between bones can lead to pain and swelling. Treatment usually depends on the size and location of the tear, ranging from rest and physical therapy to surgery in severe cases.

Ankle Sprain: An ankle sprain occurs when you twist or roll your ankle causing stretching or tearing of the ligaments holding ankle bones together. Rest, ice compression elevation (RICE) along with physiotherapy are common treatments for ankle sprains.
