Physiotherapy

We are a dedicated team of physiotherapists with specialist training in the nervous, muscular and skeletal system. We have all undergone the required training and passed all the necessary state-recognised examinations.

We are trained to treat the whole body by correcting and improving the body's own natural healing mechanisms.

Treatment by physiotherapy aims at the facilitation and restoration of movement and function.

Physiotherapy can play a vital role in pain relief, healing and rehabilitation in most medical and surgical conditions.

Among the conditions we treat are:

spinal problems
joint problems
injuries
fractures
obstetrics and gynaecological
posture

How do we treat these conditions?

specific manipulation
passive mobilisation of joints
massage
motivation
exercises
rehabilitation
clinical pilates
hydrotherapy
other soft tissue techniques
preventative medicine to avoid recurrence
electrotherapy

All the above help with the relief of pain and the promotion of recovery

How do we decide the best form of treatment for you?

Treatment cannot begin without a diagnosis. Your physiotherapist will examine the nature and actual site of the problem and relate it to you as an individual. After a full consultation with you, your physiotherapist will decide on the best form of treatment.

How do we prevent re-occurrence?

Specific self-help exercise programmes are suggested to maintain your improvement. This could include involvement in one of our clinical pilates classes, individual instruction, or exercises that you can do at home.

Do I need to consult my doctor?

Not necessarily. You may consult a physiotherapist without a doctors referral.

However, if you are claiming on medical insurance, you must consult with your insurance company before treatment.

From July 2003, the title physiotherapy and physical therapy have been protected by law.
