Back pain, sports injuries, joint dislocations, arthrosis or arthritis are just some of the reasons to seek physiotherapy. Physiotherapy is a medical discipline that aims to improve physical functioning. It uses techniques such as manual therapy, movement training and massage to relieve pain, treat injuries and support rehabilitation. The aim is to promote the patient's mobility and independence and enable them to lead an active, healthy life. The most common form of physiotherapy is exercise therapy. This systematic treatment approach aims to gradually improve or restore physical functions.

The physiotherapist and the osteopath are both healthcare professionals specializing in the treatment of pain and functional disorders of the body, but with different approaches. The physiotherapist focuses on functional rehabilitation and improving motor skills, especially after injuries, surgeries, or in the context of chronic diseases. Their approach combines physical exercises, manual techniques, and sometimes equipment. A consultation with a physiotherapist often requires a medical prescription. The osteopath, on the other hand, takes a holistic approach and attempts to rebalance the entire body through manual manipulations, based on the principle that any disturbance in one area can affect the entire organism. They therefore treat a variety of conditions, which may include digestive disorders, without requiring a medical prescription. It should be noted, however, that osteopathy and physiotherapy are often complementary.

A typical physiotherapy session usually begins with a consultation in which the physiotherapist takes a comprehensive medical history of your state of health and your complaints. A personalised treatment plan is then developed based on your symptoms. This may include various approaches, including exercise training or massages. The physiotherapist will usually work with you to start performing the appropriate exercises and support you in doing so. A treatment lasts around 30 minutes on average. In addition to regular appointments to treat your complaints, you will probably also be given recommendations for exercises that you can carry out independently between appointments.

Making an appointment with a physiotherapist near Lugano is easy thanks to online appointment booking platforms like OneDoc. There you can see which physiotherapists are available, their expertise and free appointments from which you can choose. Whether in the center, Breganzona, Pregassona or Viganello, physiotherapists are available for movement therapy. Waiting times are usually short and it is possible to get an appointment quickly.

Physiotherapy treatments are generally covered by compulsory basic health insurance in Switzerland (KVG) if they are prescribed by a doctor. On average, a physiotherapy session in Lugano costs between CHF 50 and CHF 80. However, it is always advisable to check the specific conditions of your insurance policy to confirm coverage. Indeed, depending on your contract, you may be obliged to make an appointment with a professional on the list provided by your insurance company.
