What is Physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is the science of helping people affected by injury, illness or disability through movement and exercise, education, manual therapy and advice.
Physiotherapy helps people to manage pain and prevent disease, while encouraging recovery and independence.
Conditions Treated
SPORTS THERAPY
Whether you have suffered a nasty injury on the sports field, or have a slight physical discomfort that is getting worse,
nothing gets you back on track as quickly as a physiotherapist can, ensuring that you get through the event you had been training so hard for!
BACK PAIN
Most people have experienced back pain sometime in their lives. For many, back pain is a sign that the body is aging.
This is not always the case. If you are experiencing aches and pains in your back (whether lower back pain, middle back pain, upper back pain or low back pain with sciatica) it is advisable to contact a physiotherapist, as even the smallest amount of back ache could lead to agonising pain.
ANKLE SPRAINS
Often when you have sprained your ankle you neglect it as you think it will get better soon. In many cases, a neglected ankle sprain can become chronic, leading to a myriad of problems.
MUSCLE AND JOINT PAIN ASSESSMENTS
Through a thorough assessment will your physiotherapist be able to determine the damage done to your injured joint and muscle,
as well as determine which other muscles and joint are contributing to your pain.
Once the assessment is done, your muscles and joints can be treated using soft tissue techniques, dry needling and rehabilitation exercises.
