Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy can help people of all ages who have physical problems caused by illness, accident or ageing. A physiotherapist can help people improve their range of movement in order to promote health and well being. In particular, physiotherapists concentrate on problems that affect muscles, bones, the heart, circulation and lungs. Physiotherapy involves a range of treatments, including manipulation, massage, exercise, electrotherapy and hydrotherapy.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is one of the longest established forms of healthcare in the world. The focus is on you as an individual, not your illness, and all symptoms are seen in relation to each other. Treatment involves the insertion of very fine needles into specific points on the body to affect the flow of your body’s qi, or vital energy. Acupuncture helps to relieve pain, tension, stress, anxiety (including dental anxiety) and more. For more information call Katy Jackson direct on 07891 825603 or email kjmassage@hotmail.co.uk   

Chiropractic Treatment

Most often, people come to see our Chiropractor because of back or extremity pain, headaches, stiffness, lack of function, or sometimes due to problems relating to strength, flexibility, muscular or mechanical imbalance, sport and work related complaints. We are often able to diagnose these types of complaints, by taking a thorough case history, clinical testing and imaging such as x-ray and MRI scans when needed. Chiropractic treatment primarily involves joint mobilisation, in which we use special techniques to encourage normal joint movement and function.
