Ankylosing Spondylosis: Causes, Symptoms, and the Best Treatment at Physio360.

INTRODUCTION;

Ankylosing spondylosis is a chronic inflammatory condition that primarily affects the spine, leading to stiffness, pain, and reduced mobility. Over time, the vertebrae may fuse, causing severe restrictions in movement. If left untreated, it can significantly impact daily activities and overall quality of life. At Physio360, we specialize in providing the best physiotherapy treatments for ankylosing spondylosis, ensuring fast recovery and improved spinal health.

Causes of Ankylosing Spondylosis.

The exact cause of ankylosing spondylosis is not fully understood, but genetic factors play a significant role. The HLA-B27 gene is commonly associated with this condition. Other possible causes include:

• Autoimmune response – The body's immune system attacks healthy joints and tissues.

• Inflammation triggers – Repeated inflammation in the spine and joints.

• Genetic predisposition – Family history of ankylosing spondylosis.

  
  

Symptoms of Ankylosing Spondylosis

The symptoms vary from mild to severe and can worsen over time. Common symptoms include:

• Persistent lower back pain and stiffness.

• Pain in the hips, shoulders, and neck.

• Limited flexibility and difficulty in bending.

• Fatigue and inflammation in the eyes (uveitis).

• Gradual fusion of the spine, leading to a stooped posture.

  
  

Best Physiotherapy Treatment at Physio360.

Physiotherapy is one of the most effective non-surgical treatments for ankylosing spondylosis. At Physio360, our expert physiotherapists provide personalized rehabilitation programs to relieve pain, restore flexibility, and prevent disease progression.

1. Manual Therapy

Our skilled physiotherapists use hands-on techniques to improve spinal mobility and alleviate pain. Soft tissue manipulation and joint mobilization help reduce stiffness and enhance movement.

2. Postural Correction

Patients with ankylosing spondylosis often develop a hunched posture. Our therapists at Physio360 work on posture correction exercises to maintain spinal alignment and prevent further complications.

3. Stretching and Strengthening Exercises

Customized exercise programs are designed to improve flexibility and strengthen the core and back muscles. Regular stretching reduces stiffness and enhances mobility.

4. Hydrotherapy and Heat Therapy

Hydrotherapy (water exercises) reduces joint stress and promotes movement. Heat therapy relaxes muscles and relieves pain in affected areas.

5. Electrotherapy Modalities

At Physio360, we use advanced electrotherapy techniques such as ultrasound therapy, TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation), and IFT (Interferential Therapy) to reduce inflammation and pain.
