Our Treatments
Whatever your lifestyle or sporting activity a painful condition or injury can limit activity and needs to be treated. An early treatment will ensure a minimal post injury inactive period and permit an earlier recovery.
An individual exercise programme combined with additional therapies e.g. manual therapy, acupuncture, electrotherapy, tailored to your lifestyle and individual needs will help prevent further recurrences. Our chartered physiotherapists will take a concise history followed by a comprehensive assessment to determine the nature of the problem and the underlying structure at fault.
