1. Early detection of risk factors
Modern medical centers or clinics have equipment such as joint stability meters, posture scans, gait/movement analysis, muscle tissue ultrasound and neuromuscular analysis. These technologies help detect:
Postural abnormalities, joint misalignments
Pre-symptomatic functional mobility reduction
Signs of pre-inflammation, reduced local blood circulation
Disorders of neuromuscular control can lead to future injuries
With early diagnosis, we can intervene with manual therapy, mobility training, neuromuscular control to properly recover, avoiding progression to chronic disease.
2. Benefits in preventing cardiovascular disease
Lack of exercise not only causes muscle and joint pain, but also:
Is the fourth leading independent risk factor for global mortality according to WHO.
Exercising for about 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke by nearly one-third in middle-aged and older adults.
In particular, inactive people have a higher risk of stroke if they sit for too long (≥7 hours/day), compared to those who maintain regular recreational physical activity (LTPA).
Therefore, early diagnosis allows for the design of a personalized exercise-rehabilitation program, preventing heart disease, stroke, diabetes and improving muscle circulation.
My professional perspective
As a graduate of Chulalongkorn University, and practicing at leading international hospitals and gyms in Bangkok, I believe:
Physiotherapy is not only about treatment but also about prevention: helping the body to move sustainably for a long time.
Using modern equipment + international expertise (CSCS, IFOMPT...) is the key to accurate diagnosis and building a personalized therapy.
Professionalism - personalization - responsibility is my commitment: each patient will understand his or her condition, participate in the recovery process, and receive regular follow-up programs.
Conclusion
Modern society makes many young people look healthy, but they are actually facing potential health risks from a sedentary lifestyle. Without early intervention, minor injuries, loss of mobility, or circulatory disorders can lead to serious long-term damage — especially to the cardiovascular system.
Professional diagnostic examination with modern technology and full expertise is not a luxury — it is an active defense measure to keep the body “running smoothly”, prevent disease, and live a long healthy life.
