Neurological physiotherapy can play a supportive role in managing conditions like gastroesophageal reflux (GERD) and hiatus hernia by addressing the musculoskeletal and postural factors that can exacerbate symptoms.
Techniques such as posture correction, diaphragm and core strengthening exercises, along with relaxation techniques can help improve the function of the abdominal and thoracic muscles, reduce pressure on the stomach, and enhance overall digestive health.
Neurological physiotherapists may also work on improving the coordination of the muscles involved in breathing, which can also alleviate discomfort associated with reflux. Additionally, improving posture through targeted exercises can help reduce the risk of acid reflux and hernia-related symptoms by optimising the alignment of the digestive tract and reducing unnecessary strain on the oesophagus. 360Reflux Physio can complement other medical interventions and improve overall symptom management, particularly in individuals with chronic or recurring reflux and hiatus hernia.
