3 WHAT WE OFFER We at Physio Asia make sure that our clients receive the best possible innovative treatments. Our line of treatment facilities and evidence-based technology are considered the most advanced and effective. Key Services: Physical Therapy for Musculoskeletal Conditions Our mainstream program for general physical therapy treatments with use of advanced modalities including use of hot moist packs, therapeutic ultrasound, laser therapy, decompression traction system as well as taping and manual therapy techniques as applicable. Laser Therapy Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy Cervical & Lumbar Decompression Traction System Strength & Conditioning Program Spinal Core Stability (SCORES) Comprehensive Back Care Program The program focuses on advanced pain relief modalities as well as improving activation and strength of the core muscles to provide not only temporary but also long lasting relief of pain without recurrence. The program includes the use of Real Time Ultrasound Imaging and Audiovisual Biofeedback system for assessment as well as, more specific and easier training of these muscles. Non-invasive Chronic Muscle Tightness Therapy For patients experiencing chronic pain from muscle spasms, tightness or the more commonly known lamig, our non-invasive chronic muscle tightness manual therapy program converges all the necessary treatment options for eliminating muscular and ligamentous pain. Manual Therapy Muscle Release Treatment

4 Other Services of Interest: Workplace Health Promotion and/or Wellness Programs Incontinence Care Treatment Modalities Used: Real Time Ultrasound Imaging and Advanced Pressure Biofeedback System RTUI and APBS allows both the patient and the therapist to precisely identify the muscles to activate in every treatment session. In addition, these modalities provide feedback on the proper movement, timing, and intensity of each muscle contractions. Therefore, it is a tool that isolates the exact instruction the therapist wants their patients to understand. Decompression Traction System (DTS) this modality is used to unload certain unwanted pressures arising from a myriad of spine pathologies. In comparison to the conventional traction machines, the DTS emphasizes isolation of spinal segments. It is therefore designed to specifically target the exact level of spinal affectation in relation to patient positioning. Another feature is the unique patterns of pull that the DTS can offer to patients. Shock Wave Therapy There are several theories as to how Shock Wave may promote better healing. The most accepted one is that the microtrauma of the repeated shock wave to the affected area creates neo-vascularization (new blood flow) into the area. It is this new blood flow that promotes tissue healing. The second theory is that in chronic pain, the brain has "forgotten" about the pain and is doing nothing to heal the area. By having shockwave therapy a new inflammatory process is created and the brain can react to it by sending the necessary body nutrients to the area to promote healing.

5 Advanced LASER, Electrophysical, Heat and Cold Agents At Physio Asia we boast also of our top of the line therapeutic modalities. We utilize one of the most advanced and most respected brands trusted for their commitment and quality of therapeutic machines. Winplate Vibration Platform It can be used to improve sport training by working the muscles intensively; increasing blood circulation in order to relax muscular tension and increasing bone density (the Winplate increases pressure on the bones and releases key hormones). It can therefore help to prevent bone degradation and osteoporosis, oxygenate tissue etc. Specific Design Exercise Therapy At Physio Asia, we are most confident of the quality of professional service that we provide. Backed up by training and experience, our Physical Therapists are highly competitive and are all able to design specific exercise programs that are well suited and specific for individual clients. Distinctive Manual Therapy At Physio Asia, we practice the art and science of manual manipulation. We bring the power of touch to a whole new level. Our team is highly competitive and well versed with the protocols and distinctiveness of manipulation, more specifically therapeutic manipulation of the spine and its surrounding structures.
