What is Integrative Physical Therapy?
The
Integrative Physical Therapy is an individual basis type of approach where the
main focus goes to the patient and not to the disease.
Muscular and joint pain, disturbances and imbalances, constant inflammation and postural alterations are among the symptoms of a majority search for intervention at the PT practices.
The Integrative approach of therapy assesses not only the musculoskeletal system but also the patient´s lifestyle, daily stressors, general nutrition, emotional health, exercise routine and many other factors that may be the cause or the aggravation of his or her pain.

It is well known, for instance, that chronic stress is related to a cascade of serious effects in our body. Higher levels of cortisol increase the activity of the adrenal gland and may cause an increase in body inflammation, muscular pain, and numerous other comorbidities.
In
time, I will be addressing the effects of cortisol in our body and how it
relates to PT intervention.
An Integrative approach of therapy that associates mind-body techniques has the purpose to restore balance, promote healing and increase the ability to regain quality of life.
