What is physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy helps with pain, stiffness and injuries by looking at how you move. We find out what's causing the problem, treat it hands-on and give you exercises to build strength.
It suits a sore back after a weekend in the garden just as well as getting back to sport after an operation.

Hands-on treatment
Every appointment includes hands-on work as well as exercise. You won't just be handed a sheet and sent home.
Longer appointments
60 minutes for your first visit and 45 for follow-ups, so there's time to assess, treat and explain.
Building strength
Exercises to build strength and control where you need it, for everyday life and sport.

Your first appointment
Your first appointment takes an hour. We'll ask about the problem, your general health and what you want to get back to, then look at how you move. We'll explain what we think is going on in plain English and suggest a plan. Treatment usually starts the same day.
Follow-ups are 45 minutes. Wear something comfortable you can move in, and shorts if it's your hip, knee or ankle. You don't need a GP referral.
If we can't help, you won't pay
If we assess you and don't think we can help, you don't pay for that appointment, and we'll point you to someone who can.
Dual sessions
You can book physio back to back with a sports massage or chiropractic. It saves you a second trip and costs less than booking them separately.
Physio and sports massage
Your physio session first, working on the problem and your rehab plan. Then a 30-minute sports massage to ease off tight muscles while you're here.
First physio visit and massage
Your first physio appointment, with a full assessment and a plan to get you back to what you do. Then a 30-minute sports massage to finish.
Physio and chiropractic
See the physiotherapist and the chiropractor in the same visit. Useful when you want a rehab plan and hands-on joint treatment sorted together, without coming in twice.
Maintenance treatments
Once you're back on track, some people like a regular check-in to keep the progress they've made.
We'll suggest a routine that suits you, whether that's every few weeks during a training block or the odd session when things start to build up. Ask us about our membership if you'd like regular appointments.
Why it helps
- Helps you keep the strength and movement you've worked for
- Fits around training, work and family
- Your plan is updated each visit
