Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapy services address muscle, joint, and nerve conditions through comprehensive assessment and tailored treatment plans. Using manual therapy, exercise prescription, and electrotherapy, we treat back pain, arthritis, and post-injury rehabilitation. Each session focuses on restoring mobility, reducing pain, and preventing recurrence through evidence-based techniques.
Sports Injury Treatment
Specialised care for sports-related injuries including ligament sprains, muscle strains, and joint conditions. Our practitioners combine acute injury management with progressive rehabilitation programmes to accelerate recovery. We work closely with athletes across various sports to ensure safe return to competition through functional movement analysis and performance-specific training.
Spinal Pain Management
Comprehensive treatment for spinal conditions such as disc prolapse, sciatica, and postural syndromes. Utilising McKenzie method principles, spinal traction, and core stability exercises, we address both acute and chronic back/neck pain. Treatment includes ergonomic advice and posture correction to prevent future episodes.
Rehabilitation Programmes
Customised rehabilitation plans incorporating gym-based exercises, Pilates, and functional training. Supervised by experienced physiotherapists, these programmes target strength restoration, flexibility improvement, and movement pattern correction. Includes post-operative rehabilitation for joint replacements and ligament reconstructions.
Paediatric Physiotherapy
Specialised assessment and treatment for children's musculoskeletal injuries including growth plate conditions and sports-related trauma. Our approach addresses unique paediatric biomechanics through age-appropriate exercises and parental guidance. We manage conditions like Osgood-Schlatter's disease and Sever's disease with conservative treatment strategies.
