Assessment and treatment
We believe in a holistic approach to your health, taking time to understand your situation at home and at work; working closely with GP’s, consultants and other health professionals.
Treatment cannot begin without a diagnosis.
Your initial appointment may take up to an hour and you are welcome to bring a family member or friend with you. To assess your problem effectively you may need to remove some articles of clothing – you may be more comfortable in shorts/ vest top.
At your first visit we will take a detailed history and perform a thorough examination to assess the nature and cause of your condition. At the end of the assessment we will discuss your problem with you, provide expert advice and treatment and a personal recovery programme to suit you.
Massage
Massage helps increase blood flow to the tissues. We use a combination of techniques including effleurage, kneading and rolling. The benefit of receiving massage from a physiotherapist is the extensive anatomy and physiology knowledge. We use a combination of massage and trigger point release to reduce tension and increase oxygenation at the muscles.
Research has proven that massage therapy can:
- Boost the immune system
- Significantly lower blood pressure
- Comfort those going through drug or alcohol withdrawal
- Sooth chronic joint and muscle pain
- Battle fatigue
- Ease stress
- Combat depression
