Physiotherapy for Weight Management

Carrying excess weight adds pressure on joints and can make movement uncomfortable, which often discourages exercise altogether. Physiotherapy offers safe, structured movement plans that support weight loss without injury.

Common Symptoms

Do's

  • Start with low-impact activities like walking or swimming
  • Follow a physiotherapist-guided exercise plan suited to your fitness level
  • Increase activity gradually to avoid joint strain
  • Combine movement with balanced eating habits

Don'ts

  • Don't jump into high-intensity workouts without guidance
  • Don't skip warm-up before exercising
  • Don't ignore joint pain during activity
  • Don't compare your progress with others' pace

When to see a physiotherapist: Consult a physiotherapist before starting an exercise program if you have joint pain, breathlessness, or existing health conditions, so your plan is safe and effective.
