Services
Sports Massage
Our sports massage therapy targets muscle tension and injuries through deep tissue techniques. This treatment improves circulation, reduces pain, and accelerates recovery for athletes and active individuals. Sessions focus on specific muscle groups affected by sports-related strain or overuse.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture services utilise traditional needle techniques to alleviate chronic pain and inflammation. This evidence-based treatment effectively manages conditions like back pain, headaches, and joint discomfort by stimulating the body's natural healing processes.
Neurological Rehabilitation
Specialist neurological rehabilitation programmes support recovery from stroke, Parkinson's, and multiple sclerosis. Our physiotherapists develop personalised plans to improve mobility, coordination, and daily living activities for long-term functional improvement.
Home Visits
Home visit services bring expert physiotherapy to patients unable to travel. Our therapists conduct comprehensive assessments and treatments in patients' homes, ensuring continuity of care while accommodating mobility limitations and transportation challenges.
Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy uses high-frequency sound waves to treat deep tissue injuries and chronic pain. This modality promotes healing in soft tissues, reduces inflammation, and enhances recovery for conditions like tendonitis and muscle strains.

I have seen Piers on a number of occasions now for back, shoulder and knee. Every time Piers took the time to listen to me and find the cause of the issue before treatment, as well as really explaining any issues found. The after care advice is great, and following the advice given I haven't had to return for the same issue. I would recommend without any hesitation. Also very professional, clean and instantly felt at ease.

Alright if all youre desperate for a massage to relieve pain but not the service I would expect having experienced others in the area. Didn't appreciate comments about weight AT ALL and think it was totally unnecessary.

Incredibly informative, great expertise of knowledge. Felt safe in a Covid secure environment, helped me clear what my injury was and gave me a massage and stretched that area out. Will definitely recommend and come back myself with future injuries.
