Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy and Specialist Therapy

Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy can help with muscle, joint and spinal conditions, sports injuries, orthopedic conditions, work-related disorders, women's health and balance problems.  


Physiotherapy can be helpful for all age groups from babies who have had a difficult to birth to the elderly with mobility issues and everyone in between.

  

Your first assessment will be a detailed assessment by the physiotherapist where in the majority of cases a physiotherapy treatment can help. However, if we do not think we can help, we will inform you and if necessary refer you to your GP or the most appropriate health care professional.


After the initial assessment we will explain our findings and why your symptoms may have occurred.  


Our skilled team offer a range of treatment procedures including soft tissue technique, manipulation and mobilisation, electrotherapy, acupuncture and cranio-sacral therapy.


We will plan a tailor made functional exercise programme to enable you to regain your full potential.
