WHY CHOOSE PHYSIOTHERAPY?

The aims of physiotherapy are to:

help alleviate pain
restore normal movement
facilitate functional independence
help return the body to its natural balanced state without chemical intervention

Physiotherapists will not only treat the problem: by spending time with the patient the therapist will often be able to show the patient how to help prevent the problem recurring.

At Active-Physio we use a number of different treatment approaches. These may include:

manipulation and mobilization
massage
hydrotherapy
specific exercise and rehabilitation programmes
electrotherapy (e.g. ultrasound)
acupuncture for pain relief

Active-Physio is able to provide:

walking aids
joint splints and supports
simple orthotics
taping supplies
T.E.N.S (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) units – for pain relief
