The Benefits of Physiotherapy
Reduce Pain
Physiotherapists are well-trained in many different forms of pain management, all of which aim to reduce feelings of pain.
Improve Movement
Stiffness and/or pain may lead to a reduced range of movement, which may have a negative impact on your life. Physiotherapy aims to improve your range of motion by improving and maintaining joint integrity.
Assist in Healing
We aim to help you heal from the inside out, assisting you to reduce pain, improve mobility, and manage any conditions you may have.
Strengthen Muscles
Strengthening exercises are a key element of physiotherapy. To do this we help you work the muscle which encourages its growth, and in time, increases its strength.
Prevent Future Injury
A pinch of prevention isn’t just our name, it’s also our game! Prevention is always better than cure, so we do all we can to help you prevent any future injuries.
Increase Quality of Life
Life is meant to be enjoyed, so don’t wait a minute longer to get started! Physiotherapy helps to get those endorphins flowing, increasing your happiness and quality of life.

What To Expect From Your Physio Appointment
An initial consultation involves a thorough assessment and informed diagnosis and treatment, which considers relevant symptoms and your medical history. No two patients’ treatment plans will look the same, even if they have the same condition, so it goes to show that physiotherapy truly is about you! Your treatment options are diverse and your physiotherapist should discuss them with you before you begin treatment.
Your physiotherapist should develop treatment and management plans that suit your needs, so that together, you can address the specific problems you are experiencing. Whether that’s a sore knee, headaches, arthritis, or a sports injury, your treatment is centred around you and what you hope to get out of physiotherapy.
Physiotherapists use a range of techniques which include things like joint mobilisation and manipulation, muscular and myofascial release, trigger point release, manual therapy, dry needling, and exercise therapy. They may also recommend active treatments such as rebalancing exercises, clinical Pilates, orthotics, taping, hydrotherapy and electrotherapy. Whatever your physiotherapist suggests for you, they’ve considered it carefully and wholly believe that the treatment/s they’ve selected have the best chance of helping you reach your goals.
