IMS therapy may be used as part of a comprehensive post-surgery rehabilitation program to help promote healing and restore function. After surgery, it’s common to experience muscle imbalances, tension, and weakness that can limit the range of motion and mobility. IMS therapy can help address these issues by releasing tight muscles and trigger points, promoting circulation, and stimulating tissue healing.
IMS therapy may be particularly helpful for conditions such as rotator cuff injuries, back pain, knee injuries, and other conditions that affect the musculoskeletal system. By improving muscle function and alignment, IMS therapy can help support the healing process and promote a more complete recovery.
However, it’s important to note that IMS therapy should always be used in conjunction with other aspects of post-surgery rehabilitation, such as physical therapy, exercise, and lifestyle modifications. Your healthcare practitioner can provide guidance on the most appropriate treatment plan for your specific needs and help you achieve the best possible outcomes.
