Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapy services address musculoskeletal conditions through personalized treatment plans. We combine manual therapy, exercise prescription, and rehabilitation techniques to treat back pain, sports injuries, and post-operative conditions. With access to gym facilities and hydrotherapy pools, our evidence-based approach focuses on restoring mobility and preventing future injuries.
Sports Rehabilitation
Specialist sports rehabilitation programmes help athletes return to competition after injuries. We use gym-based training, kinesio taping, and sport-specific exercises to restore performance levels. Our physiotherapists have extensive experience treating footballers, rugby players, and triathletes at various competitive levels.
Sports Massage
Deep tissue sports massage improves circulation, reduces muscle tension, and accelerates recovery. Delivered by chartered physiotherapists, sessions include pre-event preparation, post-event recovery, and injury rehabilitation support using advanced soft tissue techniques.
Hydrotherapy
Private hydrotherapy sessions utilise warm-water pools to facilitate pain-free movement during rehabilitation. The buoyancy reduces joint stress while water resistance strengthens muscles. We offer tailored programmes for arthritis, post-operative recovery, and chronic pain management.
Post-Op Rehabilitation
Comprehensive rehabilitation following surgeries like joint replacements and ligament repairs. Our gym-based programmes incorporate strength training, gait re-education, and hydrotherapy to restore mobility. We also provide pre-operative conditioning to improve surgical outcomes.
