The underlying philosophy of the clinic is based on the belief that we need to work with the body's natural healing processes and help facilitate change which ultimately results in longer term progress.

We aim to manage the cause of your disorder rather than just treat your symptoms. Initially we will establish the history of your problem, then undertake a thorough clinical examination resulting in a diagnosis and specific appropriate individual management plan.

At the end of your first session you will have a clear idea of the problem, the course of treatment to be undertaken and will have started your treatment.

 

What is Physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy is the combined approach to soft tissue, neural and joint mobilization, manipulation and exercise. The specific tailored approach to the rehabilitation process will involve the client at all times.

Why Physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy is unique in its complete assessment of the three important systems within the musculoskeletal problems: the joints; the muscles and the nerves. The assessment is then combined into an integral treatment process, while our long-term goal is to prevent the chance of reoccurrence by patient education, understanding and participation. The approach is not passive and you will play an active role in your rehabilitation from the first session and thus learn to manage the problem which avoids issues of dependency on treatment.
