Our Hydrotherapy pool supports recovery, eases discomfort, and promotes wellbeing in a gentle, low-impact environment. We’d love to see you in a class.
In our pain education sessions, we delve into how pain works and provide practical tools to help you manage it with confidence.
Whether it’s recovering from a particular injury or easing general discomfort, physiotherapy offers support across many conditions. Our experienced team is ready to help, no matter how straightforward or complex it may seem.
Treatment options may include hands-on care such as massage and joint mobilisation, structured exercise therapy, hydrotherapy sessions, dry needling, the use of electrotherapy, hot or cold applications, and education to support your recovery.
We recommend wearing clothing that’s easy to move in and gives your physio access to the area of concern, such as activewear or shorts and a t-shirt. Supportive footwear is also ideal.
This varies from person to person, as it depends on the nature and severity of your condition. Some people also respond better to treatment than others. Your physio will be able to advise on the expected number of sessions and will work with you to gradually decrease their frequency.
While some patients may experience some discomfort, physio treatment should in itself not be very painful. If you feel any discomfort during your session, be sure to communicate this to your physiotherapist so that they can adjust their technique accordingly.
