Physiotherapy is a form of treatment that deals with the reduction of muscle pain, joint pain and even respiratory issues.

When the nerves in your feet are damaged, you can experience numbness that stops you feeling cuts, bruises or blisters.

Babies are routinely placed in a head box, which is a partial incubator that only covers the baby's head. This is usually simply a precaution and your baby will be brought to you fairly soon. If your baby needs more attention, he will be put in a full incubator in the ICU.
