Physiotherapy can be considered as a treatment ethos that focuses on the science of movement to help restore, maintain and maximise physical strength, function and motion in order to enhance health & wellbeing. Physio is an active intervention, which encourages you to take the lead in your health. You will be given advice on how to achieve your goals and specific exercises to facilitate this.

Whether you are a serious sports-person or an enthusiastic amateur, no one likes to be away from their sport through injury. Some of our team have worked in high level sport for many years, rugby, cricket, Institutes of Sport, and with individual athletes who have taken on extreme challenges. 

Have you ever wondered why you are prone to the same injury when training, or that your posture affects your ability to run efficiently, or reach for that position to return that serve?

We can offer you a full movement screen that analyses the way you move, highlighting areas of potential weakness and tightness, and shows where you need to improve.

Jenny Horrigan, our experienced chartered pelvic health physiotherapist, specialises in the detailed assessment and management of a range of pelvic health problems for women and men.

Your first appointment will be held in a private setting to discuss your pelvic health problems in detail and also screen for any other pelvic floor related issues. We understand that this can be sensitive information that some people find difficult to discuss, but Jenny has an empathetic ear- and you are unlikely to say anything she hasn’t heard and helped manage before!

Acupuncture can be used either using TCM (traditional chinese medicine)  or with a western ethos of dry needling. It is a simple and safe way to ease pain. Fine, single use, sterile needles are inserted into the skin at precise points depending on your specific problem.

This process stimulates your body’s pain relieving hormones and eases your pain. Many patients find this relaxing which in turn helps your recovery.

Many people think that all finger injuries are managed by strapping fingers together or that there are simply no options for arthritic hands or ‘weak wrists’. This is a myth and often a hand therapist can provide you with that treatment and/or management strategy and/or splint to enable you to continue your hobbies, get back to what you enjoy and reduce or manage your pain and symptoms.

At the very least a hand therapist might be able to assess to establish the root of your problem and instigate a referral to further physicians to get the treatment your require.
