Services
Osteopathy
Our osteopathy service utilises hands-on techniques to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal conditions. Expert practitioners address issues with muscles, joints and spine through tailored manipulation and mobilisation. This evidence-based approach effectively manages chronic pain, sports injuries and postural problems while promoting natural healing processes.
Podiatry
Specialist podiatry addresses foot and lower limb conditions through comprehensive assessment and treatment. Our clinicians manage common issues like ingrown toenails alongside complex biomechanical problems. Services include gait analysis, orthotic prescription and Swift microwave therapy for verrucas, combining traditional techniques with cutting-edge technology.
Shockwave Therapy
This advanced treatment uses high-energy acoustic waves to accelerate healing in musculoskeletal tissues. Clinically proven for chronic tendon injuries and persistent pain, our Swiss DolorClast system stimulates blood flow and cell regeneration without invasive procedures, offering effective relief for conditions like plantar fasciitis and tennis elbow.
Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapy service combines manual therapy with exercise prescription to restore mobility and function. Specialists address post-injury recovery, chronic pain management and postural correction through individualised treatment plans. Techniques include soft tissue work, joint mobilisation and tailored exercise programmes to enhance long-term physical wellbeing.
Lymphoedema Management
Specialist lymphoedema therapy addresses chronic swelling through comprehensive decongestive techniques. Practitioners employ manual lymphatic drainage, compression therapy and exercise programmes to manage both primary and secondary lymphoedema. Patients receive personalised self-care instruction to maintain treatment benefits and prevent progression of this complex condition.
