Assessment, Diagnosis and Treatment
Physiotherapy treatments encourage rapid pain reduction and early healing, enabling the body to heal itself. The treatment techniques used vary according to the condition.
As part of your initial assessment, your physiotherapist will provide a thorough assessment and accurate clinical diagnosis. If treatment would benefit you, we will then discuss the best way forward.
Some people simply require advice on how to manage their symptoms or prevent them re-occurring. Others may benefit from hands on treatment to get them fit and pain free in as short a time as possible.
Our hands-on treatment provides quick relief from symptoms, whilst advice and individually tailored exercise programmes help you maintain your physical health and prevent future recurrent problems.
Other treatment modalities we use include electrotherapy, shockwave therapy and acupuncture which can provide relief from pain and inflammation from acute injuries.
