What is Physiotherapy? 

Through the use of evidence based, natural methods such as exercise, adapted equipment, education, motivation and advocacy, physiotherapy seeks to rehabilitate and improve the physical well being of patients with movement disorders resulting from disease or injury,

Based on the study of medical science subjects including physiology, neuroscience and anatomy, physiotherapists study to develop skills and knowledge necessary for physical health education, injury prevention, and the diagnosis and treatment of patients with physical disorders or disabilities.

Treatments our physiotherapists prescribe?

Following assessment, a physiotherapist will devise a treatment plan which takes into account your general health, activities and lifestyle. Common treatments include:

  • Exercise programs designed to strengthen muscles and improve mobility.

  • Joint manipulation to reduce stiffness and pain, and to improve flexibility.

  • Muscle re-education to improve control and prevent further or reoccurring injury.

  • Soft tissue massage and mobilisation.

  • Taping and strapping to improve control.

  • Mobility aids such as crutches or walking sticks.

  • Hydrotherapy.

  • Acupuncture.

  • Electrotherapy - including ultrasound, diathermy, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and laser therapy.
