I remember treating my first patients in my brand new sparkly clinic at the very end of April 2016. I was very heavily pregnant and can’t believe we pulled off turning a shell of a building into a Physiotherapy clinic in less than 6 weeks. The biggest thanks in which case should go to my…

What am I on about?? Hips are a really important part of the body (what isn’t I guess) and are involved in force production, shock or force absorption as well as transfer of force across the body. To do this they need to be mobile as well as strong as well as coordinate movement with…
As with most businesses we have to put our fees up periodically to be able to manage increasing staff, stock and energy price increases. This is the first increase in 2 years as we’ve been putting it off for as long as possible!! We’ve decided to create a tiered fee structure to offer more choice…

What are you all up to?? We seem to have had a flurry of ankles over the last few weeks in the clinic. From the classic ankle sprain to some broken metatarsals (long toe bone in English). After my experience last year I have (more) sympathy for anyone who has had one or similar injuries…
Reading between the lines with a few of these patients there seems to be a bit of ‘catastrophising’… they start talking about the need for a hip replacement within a few minutes of an assessment. Hold your horses!! Not every hip pain is osteoarthritis (OA) and by no means does every hip need a replacement….

This is our new class designed specifically at people that are having mobility, balance and strength issues. It will be geared towards the older population although this is not exclusive. It…
