Physiotherapy helps to restore movement and function when someone is affected by injury, illness or disability. It can also help to reduce your risk of injury or illness in the future.
It takes a holistic approach that involves the patient directly in their own care.
First contact physiotherapists are based in your GP surgery and can help with new problems such as back, neck, joint, muscle, ligament or tendon pain.
You may be referred to a physiotherapist for ongoing problems that require more regular treatment or exercise guidance.
