Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy
Musculoskeletal physiotherapy is a branch of physiotherapy focused on diagnosing, treating, and preventing problems in the muscles, joints, bones, ligaments, tendons, and nerves. It uses methods like hands-on treatment, exercise therapy, movement retraining, and education to reduce pain, restore function, and improve mobility.
Common conditions we see:
• Low back pain
• Neck pain and cervical stiffness
• Shoulder pain (rotator cuff injuries, impingement, frozen shoulder etc)
• Knee pain (patellofemoral pain, ligament sprains, meniscus injury etc)
• Sports injury (muscle strains, ankle sprains, etc)
• Tendon pain (Achilles tendinopathy, tennis/golfer’s elbow, patellar tendon issues)
• Arthritis and joint stiffness
• Work-related musculoskeletal pain
