What we treat
Pain has a cause. We find it, then we fix it.
Every appointment is one-on-one with your physiotherapist for the full session — no doubling up, no handing you to an assistant.
Desk and workplace strain
Shoulder and neck tension, wrist pain, headaches from screen posture. Common among office workers — and very treatable.
Sports and running injuries
Ankle sprains, hamstring and calf strains, shin pain, tendon issues. Assessment, rehab, and a clear timeline back to your sport.
Post-operative rehab
Knee and hip replacements, ACL reconstruction, shoulder repairs. Structured progression that follows your surgeon's protocol.
Headaches and jaw pain
Headaches driven by the neck, and jaw pain from clenching. Treated at the source rather than managed with painkillers.
Dry needling and exercise
Dry needling, joint mobilisation, taping, and a home exercise program you will actually keep doing.
TECHNOLOGY
Advanced technology treatment
For pain that hands alone have not shifted. Shockwave therapy delivers targeted pressure waves into stubborn tendon problems — plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, Achilles and calcific shoulder pain — to restart healing in tissue that has stalled.
Shockwave therapy available
Your first visit
You will leave knowing what is wrong and what happens next.
The first appointment follows the same four stages every time, so nothing gets skipped.
STAGE 01
We listen
What hurts, when it started, what makes it worse, and what you need to get back to.
STAGE 02
We assess
Movement, strength and joint range are measured and written down, so progress is a number rather than a feeling.
STAGE 03
We treat
Hands-on treatment starts in the first session. You do not wait a week for it to begin.
STAGE 04
We plan
You go home with your diagnosis, your exercises, and an honest estimate of how many visits it should take.
