Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapy services restore mobility and function through evidence-based techniques. We treat musculoskeletal injuries, post-surgical conditions, and chronic pain using manual therapy, exercise programs, and advanced rehabilitation methods. Each treatment plan is tailored to individual needs, focusing on long-term recovery and prevention of future injuries.
Sports Injuries
Specialist treatment for sports-related injuries including ligament sprains, muscle strains, and joint issues. Our physiotherapists employ sports-specific rehabilitation techniques, strength conditioning, and injury prevention strategies. We work closely with athletes to ensure safe return to activity while optimising performance through biomechanical analysis and tailored recovery programs.
Acupuncture
Integrated acupuncture treatments address pain management and musculoskeletal conditions using traditional Chinese medicine principles. Our chartered physiotherapists combine needle insertion with modern techniques to reduce inflammation, relieve muscle tension, and promote natural healing processes for conditions like chronic back pain and headaches.
Neurological Physiotherapy
Specialised rehabilitation for neurological conditions including stroke, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis. Our approach focuses on improving mobility, balance, and functional independence through targeted exercises, gait training, and adaptive techniques. We provide home visits for patients requiring additional support during recovery.
Workstation Assessment
Comprehensive ergonomic assessments prevent work-related musculoskeletal disorders through posture analysis and workstation adjustments. We evaluate seating, screen positioning, and equipment layout to reduce strain, providing practical recommendations for office and remote workers to maintain optimal spinal health and prevent repetitive strain injuries.
