The primary focus of physiotherapy is ‘the restoration of function’ to enable clients to perform their normal activities of daily living. It also aims to ‘limit or prevent the effects of chronic conditions’ through a combination of education, exercise and nutritional advice.

What you can expect :
During the initial consultation the physiotherapist will assess and diagnose the problem then plan and administer treatment programmes that aim to restore function or minimise dysfunction after surgery, injury or disease.

Physiotherapy is a ‘hands on’ manual therapy and one of the best proven approaches for the treatment of joints, muscles tendons, nerves and ligaments.

Your physiotherapist will aim to improve your quality of life through physical and educational means. They will aim to restore normal movement through manual therapy, movement training and exercise programmes and allow the affected tissues to repair in a balanced and appropriate way.
