Physiotherapy uses a variety of techniques to help muscles and joints work to their full potential. It can help repair damage by speeding up the healing process and reducing pain and stiffness
Treatments we offer
Each patient is treated as an individual, so after a thorough assessment, Karen will develop an effective treatment plan that takes into account your lifestyle, leisure activities and general health. This will include advice on how you can help your recovery and help to prevent problems returning
Electrotherapy
Using ultrasound, high frequency sound waves travel deep into the tissues. Electrotherapy can help relieve pain and inflammation, reduce muscle spasm and accelerate healing. It can improve extensibility of scar tissue.
Join Mobilisation
A gentle movement of joints is applied by the therapist to reduce pain and stiffness.
Exercise Programmes
Tailored to the individual to improve mobility and strengthen muscles. The exercise programmes will enable you to return to your chosen sport, leisure, activity or work as quickly as possible and reduce the risk of re-injury.
Acupuncture
It involves the insertion of thin, disposable needles to stimulate certain parts of the body. Acupuncture helps to stimulate the body’s own healing response and restore its natural balance. It can help with pain relief and relaxation and promote a sense of well-being.
Massage
Both aromatherapy and sports massage are offered. They help relieve muscle tension and pain, increase flexibility, relieve stress and promote relaxation.
