At CMS Physiotherapy, we specialize in treating Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) โ a chronic inflammatory condition that primarily affects the spine, causing pain, stiffness, and potential loss of mobility. Through targeted physiotherapy treatments, we aim to manage pain, improve posture, and maintain spinal flexibility, empowering you to live a more active and pain-free life. Our expert physiotherapists tailor each treatment plan based on the severity of your condition, ensuring the best possible results for long-term health and well-being.
Ankylosing Spondylitis is a type of chronic arthritis that primarily affects the sacroiliac joints in the lower back and the spine. Over time, it can lead to the fusion of the spine, limiting movement and flexibility.
Common symptoms include:
Chronic pain and stiffness in the lower back, pelvis, or neck
Reduced spinal mobility, especially in the morning or after rest
Postural changes, such as forward bending
Fatigue and general discomfort
In severe cases, loss of lung capacity due to restricted rib cage movement
