This is a detailed assessment of your condition to establish not only a possible diagnosis of your complaint but also to find the root cause of the problem. This way we are able to set you up a bespoke treatment plan, as well as a plan to reduce re-occurrence of symptoms or help you learn how to manage your symptoms in the long term. 

During our follow up appointments we continue our assessment and treatment plan, whether it be continued manual therapy, acupuncture, electro therapy or exercise progression. 

Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine stainless steel needles into the skin, it has been used in China for over 2000 years and increasingly in western medicine since the 1970s. We also now offer 'group acupuncture sessions' which is a much more affordable way to have the treatment.

Horse riding places high demands on the body and while most of us take great care over our horse’s physical needs we often neglect our own. Good symmetrical posture in the saddle begins with a well-balanced, strong and flexible pelvis, this in turn allows for a neutral spine and engaged core. Often weaknesses in the rider cause braces and soreness in our equines, so working on our own weaknesses may prevent asymmetry and pain for our horses. As both a Horse riding instructor and Chartered Physiotherapist, Kelly can help identify weaknesses or areas of discomfort and provide you with exercises and techniques to improve your riding.

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment using powerful acoustic pulses in order to treat certain musculoskeletal conditions such as plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow and a host of other tendinopathies in the ankles, knees, hips & shoulders. 

It is a simple, fast and non-invasive treatment, used to stimulate our bodies natural healing response. It is also used for reducing pain that accompanies tendon injuries, and helps to aid function and activities of daily living.

More recently, shockwave therapy has also been shown to help treat the symptoms of frozen shoulder.

Women's health physio can help manage symptoms such as prolapse, incontinence, bladder urgency and pelvic girdle pain. 1 in 3 women experience urinary incontinence in their lifetime, up to 50% will experience prolapse, and up to 60% will experience significant bladder/bowel pain symptoms. Approximately 20% of 18-50 year old women will complain of chronic pelvic pain. And all women will go through the menopause. Many women tolerate these problems and assume they must endure it and many are too embarrassed to seek help. Pelvic floor muscle physiotherapy helps to cure or improve the symptoms of weak pelvic floor muscles for over 70% of women. 

These are held in our private gym with Aiden or Luke. The cost is £40 per hour including warm up, mobility and your plan. Please note that these are not physio treatment sessions and for assessment and specific advice on an injury an initial assessment may be required. 

Therapeutic ultrasound is a form of electrical therapy that sends in high energy soundwaves into the tissues to promote tissue healing.
