Physiotherapy at Natural Fitness & Therapies

Physiotherapy is a clinical specialty that can help to restore/maintain function and movement when someone is affected by illness, injury or disability.

Physiotherapy takes a holistic approach and involves the patient directly in their own care by using self-management strategies and a range of evidence based interventions.

Physiotherapy can help with a wide range of injuries and conditions including back and neck pain, repetitive strain injuries, joint pain and arthritis, muscle injuries, post surgery rehabilitation, and sports injuries.

Your first visit will involve an assessment of your condition so that a treatment programme can be specifically developed for you. We offer a wide range of therapies that are often used in combination in a treatment programme.

Physiotherapy is more than just massage and covers a diverse array of treatment methods to reduce pain and restore function. I believe people feel better when they really understand their condition.

Treatment is designed to give you strategies to get rid of your symptoms quickly and easily. Depending on your goals and reality of condition and your psychological-physical status, treatment may include a simple exercise program, manual hands-on therapy, taping, postural and movement analysis, strength and conditioning, and finally important- education about your condition.

Physiotherapy is defined by the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy as: “Physical approaches to promote, maintain and restore physical, psychological and social well-being, taking account of variations in health status. Physiotherapy is science-based, committed to extending, applying, evaluating and reviewing the evidence that underpins and informs its practice and delivery. The exercise of clinical judgement and informed interpretation is at its core.”
