What we do, and why we do it

Physiotherapists work with people to help with a range of problems which affect movement using exercises (targeting affected muscles or muscle groups) , massage and a range of other techniques. We work with people who have physical problems caused by illness, injury, disability or ageing. We see Human movement as central to health and well-being and aim to maximise movement.

My greatest reward is seeing my patients well again:)
