We Treat These Conditions (and More)
Neck Pain
Neck issues can cause pain, restricted movement, headaches, muscle spasms, and potentially arm/hand pain, pins and needles, or weakness if a nerve is compressed. These problems can stem from injury (like whiplash), age-related wear, or bad posture. Treatment focuses on finding the cause and using manual therapies, exercise, education, and advice to restore function and reduce symptoms.
Back Pain
Back pain is common, often caused by poor posture, incorrect lifting, or injury. Treatment options include joint mobilisation, manipulation, and massage. These are typically combined with personalised exercise to improve results, reduce pain, and prevent recurrence.
Sciatica
Sciatica, often linked to lower back issues, involves buttock and leg pain, weakness, or numbness, ranging from severe to mild. Common causes include disc problems, spinal narrowing, degeneration, vertebral slippage, and muscle imbalances, also occurring during/after pregnancy. Treatment aims to reduce pain and inflammation, restore function, and prevent recurrence through advice and exercises.
Sports Injuries
Often from trauma, sports injuries benefit from early physiotherapy through inflammation, healing, and rehab with treatment, exercises, and advice. Poor posture, biomechanics, and tendon wear can also cause issues, which physiotherapy can assess and guide through recovery.
Arthritis
Arthritic pain from various conditions can severely impact life quality. While joint damage is permanent, physiotherapy can ease pain, stiffness, and restriction through education, advice, joint mobilisation, exercise, massage, and trigger point therapy to improve function and provide relief.
Strained Muscles, Tendons and Ligaments
Often from trauma, muscle, tendon, and ligament injuries benefit from early physiotherapy through inflammation, healing, and rehab with treatment, exercises, and advice. Poor posture, biomechanics, and tendon wear can also cause issues, which physiotherapy can assess and guide through recovery.
Pelvic Floor Strengthening and Rehabilitation
Pelvic floor strengthening and rehabilitation help improve muscle control and support, enhancing bladder, bowel, and core stability. Our Ultra Tesla Seat uses advanced electromagnetic technology to stimulate deep muscle activation and promote healing. It offers a non-invasive way to strengthen pelvic muscles and accelerate rehabilitation. Learn more here.
Migraines
Migraines are more than just severe headaches — they’re a complex neurological condition that can cause throbbing pain, visual disturbances, sensitivity to light or sound, and nausea. For many people, migraines are triggered by muscle tension, postural strain, or restricted movement in the neck and upper back. Physiotherapy can play a key role in reducing both the frequency and intensity of migraine episodes by addressing these underlying mechanical factors. Through tailored hands‑on treatment, posture correction, and targeted exercises, physiotherapists help restore normal movement, ease muscle tension, and support long‑term migraine management.
Women's Health
For women, the Ultra Tesla Seat offers a gentle, non‑invasive way to enhance pelvic floor strength, supporting issues such as post‑natal changes, menopause‑related weakness or general pelvic dysfunction. The focused stimulation helps retrain key muscles, promoting improved pelvic support, comfort and long‑term wellbeing.
Men's Health
The Ultra Tesla Seat helps support men’s pelvic health by strengthening the deep pelvic floor muscles involved in bladder control, core stability and sexual function. Its targeted stimulation encourages better muscle activation and endurance, helping men address pelvic weakness and improve overall confidence and wellbeing
Shoulder Pain
The complex shoulder joint, easily injured by falls or aggravated by posture and biomechanics, is crucial for daily tasks.
Overuse Injuries
Repetitive activities at work, in sports, or leisure can gradually cause pain in muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, or even bones. Identifying and modifying the cause is crucial for resolution and preventing recurrence. Factors like poor posture, biomechanics, technique, imbalances, footwear, equipment, and recovery can contribute. Physiotherapy can pinpoint the cause and offer advice, education, recommendations, and exercises for relief and prevention.
Posture-Related Pain
Poor posture causes muscle imbalances and stress, leading to pain in the neck, shoulders, back, and hips, worsened by sitting, lifting, or repetition. It can cause serious issues, so good posture is vital for musculoskeletal health.
Ankle and Foot Pain
With over a million steps taken annually, feet and ankles are susceptible to injury from trauma and overuse, often due to poor biomechanics, overtraining, degeneration, or simple injury. Common issues include ligament/tendon damage, plantar fasciitis, metatarsalgia, osteoarthritis, Achilles tendinopathy, and heel pain.
Hip and Knee Pain
Your weight-bearing hips and knees are highly susceptible to injury and pain from everyday activities like walking and stairs, which increase forces, especially during sports. Whether it’s a sports injury, post-surgery, or arthritis affecting your hips or knees, physiotherapy advice and treatment can significantly improve your symptoms and quality of life.
Post-Fracture Rehabilitation
Even with a healed fracture, surrounding tissues (joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles) likely suffered damage and stiffness from the injury and immobilisation. Early physiotherapy after healing or during surgical fixation helps prevent long-term issues and maximises your recovery.
Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
To maximise surgery benefits for sports injuries or chronic issues, a full rehabilitation programme is key. Our expert physiotherapist offers optimal loading, exercise progression, and early advice. Don’t waste your surgery’s benefits with poor rehab.
Vertigo
Vertigo creates a distressing sensation that the room is spinning or tilting, often caused by issues within the inner ear or the vestibular system. It can lead to imbalance, nausea, and difficulty with everyday activities. Physiotherapists trained in vestibular rehabilitation can assess the cause of vertigo and provide specific treatments such as repositioning manoeuvres, balance retraining, and exercises that help the brain adapt and stabilise your sense of movement. With the right approach, many people experience rapid relief and a significant improvement in confidence and mobility.
