Services
Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapy services assess and treat musculoskeletal injuries using evidence-based techniques. We combine electrotherapy, ultrasound, and monitored exercise programs to address conditions like back pain, shoulder injuries, and sports-related trauma. Our Chartered Physiotherapists develop personalised rehabilitation plans to reduce pain, improve mobility, and prevent future injuries through comprehensive movement analysis and targeted interventions.
Sports Massage
Professional sports massage treatments utilise deep tissue techniques, muscle energy methods, and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation. These therapies relieve muscle tension, improve range of motion, and support rehabilitation programs for athletes and active individuals. Our registered physiotherapists adapt pressure intensity to individual requirements while maintaining therapeutic effectiveness for optimal recovery.
Medical Acupuncture
Medical acupuncture services employ fine needle insertion to stimulate sensory nerves and reduce chronic pain symptoms. This treatment modality effectively addresses musculoskeletal pain, headaches, and post-injury discomfort by influencing pain perception pathways and promoting natural endorphin release. Acupuncture sessions are conducted at our clinic locations by qualified physiotherapists as part of comprehensive treatment plans.
Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy uses high-frequency sound waves to promote tissue healing and reduce inflammation. This modality particularly benefits bone stress injuries and soft tissue trauma through targeted energy delivery. Our therapists integrate ultrasound treatments with rehabilitation programs to accelerate recovery times and enhance tissue repair processes for optimal functional restoration.
Sports Screening Assessments
Sports screening assessments evaluate movement patterns, strength, and range of motion for injury prevention and performance optimisation. Our specialists conduct comprehensive biomechanical analyses to develop customised prehabilitation and rehabilitation programs tailored to specific sports requirements. These assessments benefit athletes across disciplines by identifying risk factors and implementing targeted intervention strategies.

Andrew helped me rehab 2 MCL injuries and an ankle sprain which allowed me to get back to my sports rapidly. Andrew had excellent knowledge, was highly professional and designed a great rehab programme for me. Would highly recommend!

Report
I went to see Andrew with very painful sciatica type problems. Four months, quite a few visits, lots of exercises and some acupuncture and I am completely pain free. Andrew was extremely good, always courteous and professional and gave me the means and the encouragement to overcome the problem. I would definitely use hus service again and can highly recommend it to others.

Report
I phoned up due to having a problem with my leg and I got an appointment in a couple of days, I've never used a physio before so was nervous and a bit apprehensive. Andrew was very helpful and knowledgeable. We worked through a plan and gave me some exercises to work through and within a couple of days my leg was much better. I cannot recommend enough.

Report
Andrew helped my teenage daughter through a knee injury / condition. The consultations and prescribed exercises have been excellent both short term and long term. As a very active person this has proved vital in her recovery and also sustained wellbeing. Andrew's first hand sports experiences mean he really understands the needs of someone so active. Very professional, understanding and approachable.

I've known Andrew for years and he has always delivered a good service. He takes a very professional approach to all my visits and always makes an effort to follow up his treatment with a phone call, email or chat on 'hows its going'. Because of his knowledge and service I would recommend him to anyone with an injury or physiological ailment. Five starts all round.
