Types of Physiotherapy Treatments
Our physiotherapy services include manual therapy, electrotherapy, therapeutic exercises, and patient education to help you recover from injuries, reduce pain, and improve mobility effectively. We want to bring back the joy to your life!
Hands on Therapy is a large part of what we do. Soft Tissue Massage, Joint Mobilisations and manipulation can remove pain and speed up recovery.
We consider patient education essential. Our goal is to ensure you clearly understand your diagnosis, the underlying causes, effective treatment options, and ways to maintain lasting results—empowering you to stay problem-free in the future.
We often prescribe exercises that you can do to improve your strength, flexibility, balance, movements and posture. Exercise can be the key to forgetting your problem and getting back to doing what you enjoy.
Some conditions settle down more quickly with the application of electrotherapy. When appropriate we have available Ultrasound, Interferential, Lazer, Muscle stimulation, TENS and Traction.
Some conditions may benefit from the application of tape to help performance and alleviate pain, while others may require support from splints or orthotics.

Reviews
I’d been suffering from ongoing foot and leg pain problems. While my previous physio had treated the symptoms Richard diagnosed the root skeletal cause and quickly set me on the path to recovery.
Pete Corcoran
Richard was very helpful in getting me ready for the London marathon. I had what I thought was a hamstring issue but it turned out to be a back issue. Over several sessions Richard helped uncover the issue and then resolve it. Highly recommend for any kind of sports injury!
Ed Hutchinson
Richard is very empathetic and knowledgeable and managed to locate the issue with my shoulder. Through exercise, massage and ultrasound the pain has now almost gone away. Can only recommend.
