What we can help with
Every person is different, so we assess first and then agree a plan with you. Here is what most people see us for.
Back and neck
Stiffness, aching and sudden twinges from work, sport or sleeping badly.
Knees, hips and ankles
Sprains, tendon pain and joint niggles that stop you walking, running or climbing stairs.
Shoulders and elbows
Rotator cuff problems, tennis elbow and pain from desk or gym overload.
Sport injuries
Assessment, taping and a plan to get you back on the field when you are ready.
After surgery
Rehab plans that follow what your surgeon has asked for, such as knee or shoulder repairs.
Women's and pelvic health
Pregnancy-related back and pelvic pain, postnatal checks and pelvic floor care.
Headaches and jaw
Neck-related headaches and jaw tension, assessed and treated hands-on.
Balance and strength
Exercise programs for older adults and anyone building up after a layoff.
Results differ from person to person. Physiotherapy suits many problems but not every one, and we will tell you if we think you should see your GP or a specialist first.
