Our approach
How we work in this area
Pain in your back, neck, shoulder or knee almost always has a cause that goes beyond the spot that hurts. Posture at work, repetitive strain, muscle weakness and movements your body has stopped making all play a part.
During the assessment we look for that cause, not just the symptom. Treatment combines manual techniques to ease pain in the short term with therapeutic exercise, so the problem doesn't come back as soon as your sessions end.
What we treat
Common reasons people come to us
Lower back pain
Pain in the lower back, with or without pain radiating down the leg, including cases linked to a herniated disc.
Neck pain
Pain in the neck and shoulders, common in people who spend many hours at a computer or on their phone.
Tendinitis and bursitis
Overuse inflammation in the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip and knee.
Osteoarthritis
Strength and mobility work to reduce pain and keep the joint working.
Repetitive strain injuries
Work-related conditions such as RSI, with guidance on posture and breaks.
Chronic pain
Conditions that have lasted for months, where the plan needs to take sleep, activity levels and a slow increase in load into account.

Step by step
How treatment works
Initial assessment
The first session is a conversation and an exam. We get to know your complaint, your history, any imaging tests you have and what you need to get back to doing in your daily life.
Treatment plan
Based on the assessment, we put together a plan with clear goals, setting how often you'll come in and what you'll also do at home.
Supervised sessions
Every session takes place with a physiotherapist present, correcting your technique and adjusting the load according to how you respond to treatment.
Reassessment
Every so often we measure pain, strength and movement again to see whether the plan is working or needs to change.
Frequently asked questions
Questions we often hear
Does physiotherapy hurt?
Some techniques cause brief discomfort, but treatment shouldn't mean suffering. If the pain increases and doesn't settle after a session, the plan needs adjusting, and that's exactly what reassessment is for.
How soon will I feel a difference?
Many people notice relief within the first few weeks, but fixing the underlying cause usually takes longer. What makes the results last is gaining strength and mobility, and that happens gradually.
Do I need to exercise at home?
Yes, and it's an important part of treatment. We give you a few well-explained exercises so you can fit them into your routine without it becoming yet another impossible task.
