PHYSIOTHERAPY
At Birdwell Clinic our Chartered Physiotherapists aim to treat the whole body by correcting and improving its own natural healing mechanisms.
Physiotherapy can speed up your recovery from injury and stop your problem recurring.
It plays a vital part in pain relief, healing and rehabilitation by restoring joint mobility, muscle flexibility, muscle strength, co-ordination and core stability after injury or disease.
We give advice and exercises to maintain recovery and help prevent your problem recurring by treating the underlying cause and not just the symptoms.
Our emphasis is on ‘hands on’ treatment complemented by exercise, advice and self help.
Physiotherapy treats many conditions including back and neck pain, headaches, whiplash, sports injuries, sprains, pain and stiffness, & ‘wear and tear’ arthritic aches and pains.
