A: Stroke recovery varies from person to person. Some patients show improvement within weeks, while others may need months or longer of rehabilitation.

These exercises should be performed carefully and appropriately for the stage of recovery, as excessive or forceful movements may not be helpful. At The Physio Co+, facial rehabilitation is personalised according to the patient’s weakness, facial movement, and recovery stage.

A: For most cases of slip disc, physiotherapy is usually considered before surgery, as many patients improve with appropriate exercises, pain management, and activity modification. However, surgery may be recommended when there is severe or worsening nerve compression, significant weakness, or other serious symptoms. At The Physio Co+, we assess each patient individually and design a personalised rehabilitation plan to help improve pain, movement, strength, and function.

A: Neck pain can have many causes, including poor posture, prolonged screen time, muscle strain, stiffness, injuries, or age-related changes in the spine. Stress and lack of movement can also contribute to neck discomfort. At The Physio Co+, we assess the underlying cause of your neck pain and provide personalised physiotherapy to improve mobility, strength, and function.

A:Back pain can keep coming back when the underlying factors are not fully addressed.

At The Physio Co+, we assess each patient individually and recommend rehabilitation based on their condition and goals.

The exact timing and intensity should always be decided by the treating medical and rehabilitation team based on the patient’s condition.
