The Clinic has a Real Time Ultrasound (RTUS) machine, an invaluable tool for Physiotherapy rehabilitation. Our team has been trained on using this device to show you in real time (i.e. during the actual exercise) which muscles you are contracting. RTUS imaging will allow our physiotherapists to view the stabilising muscles as the contraction occurs and provides an accurate assessment of the quality, timing and endurance of the stabilising muscle contraction. This is a major benefit for our patients whose condition is linked to poor core stability.
Castlereagh Physio patients with lower back pain can access this device to retrain their core stability successfully. Once this has been achieved we can advise you of the most appropriate form of exercise to maintain the strength of the stabilising muscles. This appliance is a valuable asset for back physiotherapy treatments.
