Muscle tightness and muscle weakness can feel similar but require different treatment. Learn how physiotherapy identifies the cause and creates the right rehabilitation plan.
Many people assume stiffness and weakness are the same, but they affect the body differently. Tight muscles limit movement, while weak muscles struggle to support your joints and posture.
Knowing the underlying cause helps guide the most effective treatment.
A physiotherapist will assess your strength, flexibility, posture and movement patterns to determine what's contributing to your symptoms.
Treatment may include stretching, strengthening exercises, manual therapy and movement retraining.
With home physiotherapy, exercises are tailored to your daily routine, making it easier to improve flexibility and strength safely over time.
Treating the right problem leads to better long-term results and improved mobility.
