Physiotherapy is a degree level science-based profession that uses physical modalities to decrease pain and help recover movement and function after injury, dysfunction or illness.
A thorough assessment prior to any treatment is key - Diagnosis of the pain or dysfunction is then made and the ‘whats’, ‘whys’ and ‘wheres’ are fully explained.
A treatment plan is then made and discussed, with treatment usually starting immediately!
Our aim is to reduce your pain, treat the injury and prevent re-occurrence!
Chartered Physiotherapists are trained to fully assess the problem area, and to make a clinical diagnosis.
A ‘whole person’ approach to assessment is taken, with the health and lifestyle of the person being taken into consideration. We also liaise with your doctor if needed (with your permission), if there is any information we need to know or to send them a report about our assessment findings, treatment done or our recommendations.
