Physiotherapy integrates clinical expertise with evidence-based research. Therapists are trained to assess the underlying causes of joint, muscle and nerve disorder, educate patients about managing their condition, and advise ways to prevent pain and injury.

Therapists use a wide range of drug-free techniques to relieve pain, restore function and movement, and prevent further problems, including: joint mobilisation and manipulation, therapeutic exercise and stretches, soft tissue massage, breathing exercises & techniques.

Physiotherapy has become an integral part of conventional treatments, for the treatment of back or neck pain, other muscular pain and sports injuries.  It is also applied in the management of a wide variety of other conditions, including: neurological illness such as stroke and Parkinson's Disease; movement disorders in children; rehabilitation after major injury; headaches; incontinence; and recovery following surgery and child birth.

Physiotherapists are involved in helping people of all ages, from young infants to the elderly, and play a central role in the management and prevention of chronic conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), diabetes, arthritis and cardiovascular disease.
