Your Treatment
At your first visit we will take a detailed history of your condition together with any relevant past medical history and carry out a physical assessment. We will then discuss our findings with you and together agree an effective treatment plan that takes into account your lifestyle, leisure activities and general health.
Treatment may include:
- Mobilisation or manipulation
- Electrotherapy e.g. ultrasound, interferential and laser
- Rehabilitation
- Exercises
- Education and advice
- Acupuncture
We also run Pilates classes and gym ball classes for beginners. These run over a six-week period with a maximum of 5 in a class (4 for gym ball). Booked through reception (subject to availability).
Physiotherapy is a two-way process and you should feel free to ask whatever questions you may have at any stage during your treatment.
By helping you understand your condition we can guide you to help yourself back to health.
