For pain relief without side effects, Kinesitherapy uses specially designed training machines targeting particular groups of skeletal muscles to improve blood flow and provide sufficient nutrition and oxygen to muscles and the surrounding skeleton. Aging and lack of exercise leads to gradual musculoskeletal tissue degeneration causing pain in shoulder, neck, waist, back, spine and joints due to various reasons including inflammation and dislocation. Working strain and accidental trauma can make these conditions more severe. The program is suitable for all people who are suffering from various kinds of chronic pain and it also be combined with other medical treatments.
