Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy helps restore movement and function when someone is affected by injury, illness or disability.

What does a physiotherapist (physio) do?

Physiotherapists help people affected with illness, injury and disability through movement and exercise, manual therapy, education and advice. They help patients manage pain and prevent disease, thus maintaining health for people of all ages. The aim is to encourage development, recovery and independence, for as long as possible.
