Physiotherapy
Our musculoskeletal physiotherapy specialises in diagnosing and treating spinal pain, sports injuries, and chronic conditions. Using evidence-based methods, we focus on movement analysis and manual therapy to identify root causes. Patients receive personalised rehabilitation programmes that integrate home exercises with clinical treatment, enabling faster recovery and long-term self-management.
Exercise Therapy
Tailored exercise programmes address movement impairments through progressive strengthening and mobility work. Based on thorough assessment, we create individualised routines that evolve with your recovery. Our evidence-based approach ensures exercises target specific musculoskeletal issues while fitting seamlessly into daily routines, promoting sustainable recovery from injury to full functional capacity.
Injection Therapy
Diploma-qualified injection therapy provides targeted pain relief for musculoskeletal conditions. Administered following comprehensive assessment, these injections complement manual treatments by addressing acute symptoms. The procedure follows strict aseptic protocols with full patient consultation, offering rapid relief for conditions like tennis elbow while allowing other therapies to address underlying causes.
Dry Needling
Specialist dry needling treats chronic muscular pain using fine needles to release trigger points. Based on neurophysiological principles, this technique addresses radicular pain and muscle spasms by desensitising supersensitive nerve areas. Delivered by trained practitioners, it effectively treats headaches, whiplash, and sports injuries through cumulative sessions that promote lasting muscle relaxation and pain relief.
Corporate Physiotherapy
On-site corporate physiotherapy services facilitate rapid return-to-work for injured employees. We provide workplace assessments and targeted interventions that minimise absence while addressing ergonomic factors. Collaborating with occupational health teams, our bespoke programmes combine clinical treatment with movement education to prevent recurrence and maintain workplace functionality.

Questions
What makes your physiotherapy approach different?
We focus on identifying movement impairments causing pain rather than treating symptoms. Our evidence-based methods include Cognitive Functional Therapy and tailored exercise programmes that empower patients to self-manage long-term.
Do you treat chronic pain conditions?
Yes, we specialise in chronic musculoskeletal pain resistant to conventional treatments. Our approach addresses central nervous system sensitisation through movement retraining and education, achieving lasting results where other methods have failed.
Can I self-refer for treatment?
Self-referrals are welcome for most services. Some private medical insurers require GP referral, so check with your provider before booking. We'll assist with insurance pre-authorisation requirements when needed.
What appointment durations are available?
We offer 30, 45, and 60-minute sessions tailored to your condition's complexity. Initial assessments typically require 60 minutes to ensure thorough evaluation and treatment planning with comprehensive patient education.
Do you offer home visits?
Home visits are available for patients with mobility challenges. We assess suitability during booking and schedule visits when clinic attendance would compromise effective treatment delivery or patient comfort.
How do you handle workplace injuries?
We provide occupational physiotherapy services including on-site assessments, ergonomic advice, and rapid return-to-work programmes. Our corporate services work with HR departments to ensure workplace adaptations prevent recurrence while maintaining productivity.
