Services
Sports Massage
Our sports massage therapy targets muscle tension and soft tissue injuries through deep tissue manipulation. This treatment enhances blood flow, accelerates recovery, and prevents future injuries for athletes and active individuals. Patients benefit from tailored pressure techniques addressing specific problem areas identified during initial assessments.
Post Surgical Rehab
Specialised rehabilitation programmes address post-operative needs following orthopaedic procedures. We employ progressive exercise regimens and manual therapy to restore mobility and strength. Our protocols incorporate movement science to optimise healing while minimising scar tissue formation and joint stiffness.
Shockwave Therapy
This non-invasive treatment uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing in chronic musculoskeletal conditions. We apply targeted pulses to injured areas, promoting blood circulation and tissue regeneration for conditions like plantar fasciitis and tendonopathies. Most patients experience significant improvement within 3-5 sessions.
Prenatal Physio
Tailored physiotherapy addresses musculoskeletal changes during pregnancy. Our specialists guide patients through safe exercises to alleviate back pain, improve posture, and prepare for labour. Treatment includes pelvic floor assessment and post-natal recovery programmes to restore core strength and stability.
Chronic Pain Management
Comprehensive approach combining manual therapy, movement retraining, and lifestyle modifications. We address underlying causes of persistent pain through functional assessments and personalised exercise programmes. Education on pain neuroscience helps patients develop effective self-management strategies for long-term relief.

Great physio team support always on hand. After a patellar tendon surgery, Riz gave me the exercises to strengthen and get more mobility than I had before. Highly recommended

Riz and the rest of the team were all fantastic! I came in with a bad sprain and was back to full health in record time. Riz was super helpful with fitting my appointments in at a time convenient to me and Pete was great when there wasnt a suitable time for Riz. I was more than comfortable in both of them and hugely grateful to be back to myself as quick as I was! Thank you!!!!

Honestly came in without any expectations and they still exceeded them. I've been working with Ryz and he's been great at working according to my goals and needs, pushing my recovery at just the right pace. Would definitely recommend coming here for Physiotherapy.

I had Ryz for my treatment. I was very stiff in my lower back before I went and struggled to move much. After a few minutes he had already diagnosed me! A few months later and it's like I have a new back, I can move completely normally which feels amazing. Highly recommend this physio

Report
I had a debilitating trapped nerve in my neck, but even after my first session I came away with the confidence to do some gentle exercises that helped me gain further mobility. Subsequent sessions built on this and put me well back on the road to recovery. Thanks very much Riz! Would definitely recommend the clinic to others.

Attended with an injury sustained playing football with a tight time frame for recovery. Working with both Abbie and Riz, I received top class advice and treatment from specialist therapists, in excellent facilities. Enabling me to play and providing we with a continued rehab plan post discharge. Highly recommended
