Banish Bursitis with Expert Care – Relieve Pain and Regain Your Active Lifestyle
Bursitis is a painful condition that causes pain and swelling in the body’s joints. Imagine your joints have small, fluid-filled sacs called bursae that help cushion and lubricate them when you move. When these bursae become irritated or inflamed, it’s called bursitis.
What Is Bursitis?
Bursitis can happen for several reasons, like repetitive motions, injury, or even an infection. For example, if you frequently kneel or lean on your elbows, you might develop bursitis in those joints over time. The most noticeable symptoms are pain, tenderness and swelling around the affected area.
What Are The Symptoms Of Bursitis?
You may have recently been diagnosed with bursitis, which could be in the shoulder, knee, hip, or any other part of the body. We have bursaes all over our body – they’re there to stop irritation, but ironically, they cause us a lot of pain.
You might have been advised to rest, receive injections, and in the worst-case scenario, have the bursae removed. Ultimately, bursitis affects day-to-day activities, preventing the enjoyment of the activities we love and causing regular pain.
This could manifest as difficulty getting dressed in the morning, going up and down stairs, or performing tasks at work that require kneeling, for example. Finding ways to move around these difficulties can actually lead to more issues, causing compensation that results in additional pain elsewhere in the body.

What Is Our Approach To Treating Bursitis?
You’re very much confused. You don’t know where to turn, and you don’t know what to do physically and mentally. There are a lot of things that can be done to reduce your pain from a natural viewpoint and ensure that you’re not shoving external implements into your body like an injection, for example.
Step 1
We begin with a thorough assessment of the affected area. This involves understanding your symptoms and how they impact your daily life. Our goal is to gather detailed information to pinpoint the source and nature of your bursitis.
Step 2
Based on the assessment findings, we design a customised treatment plan tailored to your specific condition. This plan is carefully crafted to address your unique symptoms and goals.
Step 3
Your treatment plan starts with targeted hands-on therapy, focusing on the inflamed bursa, surrounding muscles, and tissues. This is complemented by a tailored exercise program designed to strengthen supportive muscles, improve flexibility, and correct any movement dysfunctions contributing to your bursitis.
Step 4
Throughout your treatment journey, we monitor your progress closely and adjust the plan as needed to ensure optimal results. We provide education on self-management techniques and lifestyle modifications to empower you in managing and preventing future episodes of bursitis.
We then look to strengthen you up, get you back to your daily activities, and ensure that this isn’t a reoccurring event for you throughout the following years.
