What is physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession which aims to both target and maximise an individuals functional movement and physical potential, through the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of neuro muscular-skeletal related instabilities. Indeed, physiotherapists can be found working within a wide variety of health settings; including intensive care, mental health, stroke rehabilitation, care of the elderly and as perhaps as more commonly acknowledged, within the area of musculoskeletal injuries.
In addition to traditional chiropractic methods, I am also trained in Physiotherapy. Physiotherapy techniques consist of Ultrasound therapy, Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS), Hydrotherapy, Decompression therapy, Intersegmental Traction, Infrared Light Therapy and Exercise therapy. Each of these treatment methods has a specific effect on the muscles and/or joints of the body. For information on each of the Physiotherapy treatments used in my office see the “SERVICES” page on this site.
