Medical disclaimer

Reading this site does not create a clinician–patient relationship with Physio Energy, PERHIBELAND SL or any member of the clinical team. Referral maps show typical patterns described in the literature; your own symptoms may differ, and similar pain can come from joints, nerves, organs or other conditions that need medical care.

Stop self-treatment and seek prompt medical assessment if you have chest pain, sudden severe headache, fever with pain, unexplained weight loss, pain after a fall or injury, progressive numbness or weakness, loss of bladder or bowel control, or pain that wakes you every night. Call your local emergency number (112 in the EU) in an emergency.

Self-care techniques should be gentle and stopped if they increase pain. Dry needling, injections and other invasive procedures are described for information only and must be performed by trained, licensed professionals. We work to keep the content accurate and up to date, but we cannot guarantee it is complete or free of errors.

Every page is checked by a physiotherapist before publication and re-reviewed when the evidence changes, but general information cannot take your history, examination findings or other conditions into account. Use it to prepare questions for your clinician, not to replace their judgement.
