Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapy services combine manual techniques with evidence-based exercise rehabilitation to treat musculoskeletal injuries and chronic conditions. We provide thorough assessments to diagnose injuries before creating tailored recovery plans that address both symptoms and root causes. Patients benefit from our team's extensive experience in treating sports injuries, post-operative conditions, and chronic pain through collaborative goal setting and patient education.
Shockwave Therapy
This advanced treatment uses high-energy sound waves to accelerate healing in chronic musculoskeletal conditions. We offer both focused and radial shockwave therapy to treat various tissue depths, effectively addressing issues like plantar fasciitis and tendon injuries. Clinical studies demonstrate its effectiveness in promoting tissue regeneration and pain relief where traditional treatments have failed.
Performance Testing
Utilising ForceDeck technology, we conduct detailed bilateral strength and power evaluations for athletes and active individuals. This assessment helps determine optimal training focus while monitoring rehabilitation progress through comprehensive reports. Our testing protocols help create personalised training strategies that enhance athletic performance and prevent future injuries.
Corporate Physiotherapy
We provide tailored physiotherapy solutions for businesses to improve employee wellbeing and reduce absenteeism. Our services include on-site treatments, ergonomic assessments, and customised training workshops on posture and injury prevention. This proactive approach helps maintain workforce productivity while addressing work-related musculoskeletal issues.
Pilates
Led by specialist instructor Beccy West, our 1:1 reformer pilates sessions focus on improving posture, flexibility and core strength. The adaptable equipment allows customised programmes for all fitness levels, from rehabilitation patients to elite athletes. Sessions integrate seamlessly with physiotherapy treatment plans to enhance recovery and prevent future injuries.
