Physiotherapy · injury, rehab, persistent pain

The appointment isn't the treatment. The homework is.

You are here for forty minutes. The exercises are ten minutes a day for six weeks, and they are the part that actually changes anything. Any clinic that suggests otherwise is selling you attendance.

Come to us for
A new injury — Something twisted, pulled or landed on
Pain that keeps returning — Backs, necks, shoulders, knees
After an operation — Following your surgeon's protocol
Getting back to a sport — On criteria, not on a calendar
See a doctor first for
Pain that wakes you nightly — Especially with fever or weight loss
Any change in bladder or bowel — Or numbness around the saddle area
Sudden weakness in a limb — Or pins and needles that spread
Chest pain or breathlessness — Emergency services, not a clinic
How many sessions will I need?
Most problems — Four to six. Not twelve, and not one miracle appointment
You get a number at the assessment — An estimate, said out loud, and revised out loud if it changes
If nothing has shifted by session three or four — That is our signal to rethink the plan or send you back to a doctor. It is not a reason to book you six more
We don't sell blocks up front — Pay as you come. A package of ten paid in advance is a commercial decision dressed as a treatment plan
Discharge is the goal — A physiotherapist you see forever is a physiotherapist who never finished the job
What treatment looks like, depending on what's wrong
A fresh injury — Settle it, protect it, and start moving early. Beyond the first day or two, rest is rarely the treatment it was once thought to be
Pain that has lasted months — Pain is not a simple damage meter. The plan is graded loading, sleep, pacing and getting strong in the positions you avoid
After surgery — Your surgeon's protocol leads and we work inside it. Where we disagree with the timeline we ring them, not you
Returning to sport — Progressed on what you can do — hop tests, strength side-to-side, control under fatigue — rather than on the number of weeks elapsed
Balance and falls — Strength and balance work for older adults. The least glamorous thing on this list and the one with the best evidence behind it
Every one of these is a plan you take away, not a treatment you have to keep coming back for. Hands-on work is used where it helps you move — it is a door-opener, never the whole programme.

What a session actually includes

A proper assessment

Movement, strength and what you actually need to get back to. The history takes longer than people expect.

Hands-on where it helps

To get you moving more comfortably so the exercises are possible — not as a treatment on its own.

Exercises with video

Filmed with you doing them, sent the same day. Nobody remembers a sheet of stick figures by Tuesday.

A load plan

How much, how often, and what to do when it flares. Flares are expected and they are not a setback.

Letters to your doctor

On request, or straight away when something should be looked at by them instead.

Space to work

A rehab area with real weights, because tissue changes need load, not a resistance band on a plinth.

When it isn't a physiotherapy problem
Pain that wakes you every night — Particularly with fever, night sweats or weight loss you cannot explain
Bladder or bowel changes — With back pain, or numbness around the saddle area. This one is urgent — same day
Sudden weakness — A limb giving way, a foot dragging, or pins and needles spreading rather than settling
After a significant fall — Especially with osteoporosis or on steroids. An x-ray may be the sensible first step
Chest pain, breathlessness, a calf that is hot and swollen — Emergency services. Do not wait for an appointment with anyone
If you arrive with any of these we will tell you and send you on — and we will not charge you for the appointment. Knowing what is not ours to treat is part of the job.

Book an assessment

That last question shapes the whole plan. Getting back to a five-a-side pitch and getting back to a night shift are different jobs, and we would rather aim at yours.
