Physiotherapy can help restore normal function to your body specifically targetting the musculo-skeletal system.
What does this mean for you?
Well firstly we can help you find the cause of your pain. We do this by taking a thorough history from you and then physically test your joints, muscles and nervous system to understand the health of the whole body. We will also if necessary liaise with your doctor for further tests.
We then help provide you with immediate relief through joint mobilisation, soft tissue release and massage, electrotherapy, heat and ice. Other techniques such as acupuncture or exercise may also be utilised.
As you start to feel better we will then help you understand about the cause of your pain/problem and how to avoid it.
Finally, we can help you learn how to strengthen your body and use it more efficiently so you can return to whatever it is you love doing sooner. This can be done through exercise, movement re-education and re-structuring your environment so it is working for you and not against you.
Physiotherapy is an evidence based practice and reassessment of your progress is made at every step along the way. Our goal for every treatment is to provide lasting solutions to your problem and give you back control over your health and wellbeing. |
