At the first visit a detailed assessment is undertaken which includes examination of the affected areas and how this affects your global body movements and function. This is important as sometimes the cause of the problem may be elsewhere in the body. As a result of this assessment I would suggest a tailor- made treatment programme to follow. The aim of treatment is to reduce pain, if this is an issue, and improve or restore normal movement so that if possible, you can return to your normal activities.

Some of the conditions treated include:

• Injuries to joints, muscles and soft tissue
• Neck and back pain
• Stiff and painful joints
  e.g. in shoulders, hip, knee and ankle etc.
• Whiplash injuries
• Neurological conditions, particularly Parkinson's Disease and Multiple Sclerosis
• Post-operative physiotherapy following orthopaedic procedures and joint replacements
  e.g. knee and hip replacements and pinned hip fractures

Some treatments used:

• Joint and tissue mobilisation 
• Excercise
• Postural advice
• Electrotherapy and Taping

As treatment progresses, I reassess any changes, and alter treatment accordingly, with your agreement.
