Physiotherapy
Our chartered physiotherapists treat musculoskeletal injuries, sports conditions, and chronic pain through hands-on techniques and tailored exercise programmes. We address back pain, neck pain, joint issues, and post-surgical rehabilitation using joint mobilisation, soft tissue release, and acupuncture. With expertise in neurological and cancer rehabilitation, our therapists create individualised recovery plans to restore mobility and reduce discomfort for patients of all ages.
Chiropractic
Registered chiropractors specialise in diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal disorders, particularly spinal conditions. Gentle spinal manipulations, peripheral joint adjustments, and soft tissue therapies alleviate pain from disc issues, sciatica, and sports injuries. Additional treatments include dry needling, shockwave therapy, and rehabilitation exercises to improve mobility and prevent recurrence while addressing headaches and migraines through targeted spinal care.
Osteopathy
Structural and rehabilitative osteopathy combines joint manipulations, myofascial release, and functional movement techniques to treat back pain, sports injuries, and chronic conditions. Our osteopaths address biomechanical imbalances through hands-on treatments and prescribe corrective exercises, focusing on holistic recovery that considers the interconnected systems of the body to improve overall function and reduce pain.
Injection Therapy
Ultrasound-guided joint injections deliver targeted pain relief for arthritis, tendonitis, and inflammatory conditions. Corticosteroid injections reduce inflammation, while hyaluronic acid lubricates joints for longer-term osteoarthritis management. Specialist physiotherapists perform these procedures with precision, combining injections with rehabilitation programmes to maximise mobility improvements and extend symptom-free periods for knee, shoulder, and hip conditions.
Shockwave Therapy
Non-invasive shockwave therapy stimulates healing in chronic tendon injuries like plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, and rotator cuff pain. High-energy sound waves promote blood flow and tissue repair, with clinical guidelines recommending 3-6 sessions for optimal results. This evidence-based treatment effectively reduces pain and improves function for stubborn musculoskeletal conditions resistant to conventional therapies.
