Musculoskeletal (MSK) Physiotherapists provide advice and treatment for a wide range of orthopaedic and rheumatological conditions that affect joints, muscles, ligaments, cartilage, tendons and spinal discs. This includes sports injuries, neck and lower back pain, complex pain conditions, and pain following surgical procedures.
My aim is to provide the best possible care according to each patient’s needs.
Treatment
We help people understand the cause of their problem, how best to manage their own condition and how to prevent it recurring using the following treatments:
- Manual therapy techniques (joint mobilisations, manipulations)
- Soft tissue techniques (massage, myofascial release, trigger point techniques, stretches, PNF)
- Patient-specific exercise prescriptions
- Advice and education
- Chronic pain management advice
- Functional restoration programme for those with long standing pain
- Clinical pilates
TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR PAIN
Case Study
Throughout my professional career I have acquired knowledge which has helped me carry out a holistic approach. Whilst for many patients, treatments focused solely on their pain will be successful, for others this may not be the case. This is because very often the underlying cause of the condition or problem may not be local to where the symptoms or pain are present.
This is where a holistic approach is beneficial as it allows for all avenues (such as posture, joint mobility and pattern movements) to be fully considered in order to relieve the pain effectively.
Take a look at this case study to see how I got to the root of a client’s persistent back pain.
