Manual Therapy
Acupuncture
Manual therapy is a key part of physiotherapy, using a range of hands-on techniques. These include soft tissue massage, joint mobilisations and stretching. These techniques aim to reduce pain, improve joint mobility, restore movement, and relieve muscle tension. Manual therapy can also enhance circulation and support recovery following injury, as well as assist in the management of long-term musculoskeletal conditions.
Exercise Therapy
Exercise therapy is fundamental to restoring strength, mobility, and function. Individualised rehabilitation programmes are designed following a detailed assessment and may include strengthening, flexibility, and functional movement exercises. Programmes are progressed appropriately to support recovery, improve performance, and reduce the risk of recurrence. Clear guidance is provided to enable effective and safe continuation of exercises outside of sessions.
Our Treatment Approaches
Acupuncture is a therapeutic technique involving the insertion of fine needles into specific points to support pain management and promote healing. It is commonly used to support pain management and promote the natural healing processes. Acupuncture can help reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, and encourage the release of endorphins and other neurochemicals involved in pain modulation. It is often used alongside other physiotherapy treatments as part of a comprehensive approach to managing both acute and chronic conditions.
The therapies outlined below provide further detail on the treatments available within our physiotherapy service. Each treatment plan is tailored to the individual, based on clinical assessment, goals, and lifestyle.
All treatments are provided in line with current clinical guidelines and best practice.
Electrotherapies
Electrotherapy is used to support pain management, muscle function, and tissue healing. Within our practice, we utilise TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and NMES (Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation). TENS is primarily used for pain relief by modulating pain signals and stimulating endorphin release. NMES is used to activate muscle contractions, helping to improve strength, prevent muscle wasting, and support rehabilitation following injury or surgery. These therapies are incorporated into a wider treatment programme based on individual clinical needs.
