What we treat:

Back & neck problems

Pain can be referred from muscles joints and nerves to various places in your body. Commonly a problem with your neck could give you pain in your arm or pain in the leg from the lower back.

It is estimated that between 80 and 100% of the population will suffer at least one episode of neck or back pain in their lifetimes Research is in agreement that manual therapy, exercise and education is beneficial and “best practice” for back and neck problems. Surgery is only necessary for a minority of back pain sufferer. The risk factors for developing back pain include a family history of back pain, prolonged standing or sitting, heavy repetitive work, obesity, poor general fitness and following abdominal surgery.

All of our physiotherapists have extensive experience in managing back and neck problems. Our philosophy of individual care and an holistic approach means we will assess and then treat you using a wide range of techniques such as soft tissue massage and gentle positional release techniques, joint mobilisation and manipulation techniques.

Headaches and Migraines:

Rodger has undergone advanced level training with Mr Dean Watson who is probably the world’s leading physiotherapist in the management of headache and migraine caused by the neck.
