What It Is and Who It’s For
Physiotherapy is a hands-on and exercise-based approach to injury, pain and movement problems. It combines assessment of how you move, manual techniques to ease pain and restriction, and a structured exercise plan built around your goals, whether that is returning to running, getting back on the mat, or simply moving more comfortably day to day.
It suits a wide range of people: athletes and gym-goers managing an overuse injury, office workers with neck or back pain from long days at a desk, people recovering from surgery, and anyone dealing with a new or ongoing ache that is limiting what they can do. You do not need to be “sporty” or in acute pain to benefit. Many of the people we see are simply trying to move a little more freely.
How we treat you
What to expect at your first visit
Your first appointment starts with a conversation about your injury, your goals and your general activity levels, whether that is training for a half marathon or getting back to picking up your children comfortably. Your physiotherapist will then carry out a physical assessment, looking at movement, strength and function relevant to your problem.
From there, you will usually leave your first session with some initial hands-on treatment, a clear explanation of what is going on, and the first steps of an exercise plan to start working on between visits. We will also talk through how many sessions are likely to be useful, so there are no surprises about the process ahead.

What our patients say
“I cannot recommend Joana highly enough. From my first appointment, Joana was professional, knowledgeable and genuinely invested in my recovery. She took the time to thoroughly assess my injury, explained the cause and created a tailored plan which resulted in a full recovery.”
Posted on Google“Joana is a wonderful physio! She guided me through my entire rehabilitation following ankle surgery. I started out in a wheelchair, and within just a handful of weeks, I was back to exercising thanks to her extensive hands-on treatment.”
Posted on Google“Sajj is honestly second to none! I'm a runner and work in finance so suffer from various pains from hip bursitis to neck pain due to stress and everything in between… Sajj (unlike many physios) takes a holistic approach and really reads into the root cause.”
