What Is Physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession that assesses, diagnoses, treats and works to prevent disease and disability through physical means. It aims to restore optimal physical function and performance by addressing imbalances or dysfunction that may cause pain and reduced mobility.
Physiotherapists are extensively trained in manual therapy. This means we are hands-on with patients, using techniques such as massage, joint mobilisation, manipulation and muscle stretching to help restore movement and reduce pain.
