We offer a gold-standard physiotherapy service for a multitude of issues. All of our physiotherapists are highly trained and skilled and all hold post graduate qualifications in addition to their physiotherapy training.

We will conduct a thorough assessment and diagnosis to understand where the issue lies. Unlike some clinics, we can provide specialists for each clinical area to give a diagnosis, including ordering scans and referring to necessary specialists. Damage to your soft tissue, bones or nerves may result in pain, pins and needles, numbness, swelling, bruising, stiffness or weakness. That’s where we come in. Our physiotherapists will work with you to establish which structure has been damaged and how. By understanding what caused the injury, we can focus on treating it and preventing it from recurring. We focus on solution-based treatment rather than you relying on our long-term input.

Following this, we will discuss your treatment goals and create a plan that suits you. This may include joint and soft tissue mobilisation and manipulation; acupuncture; exercise prescription; clinical Pilates; Shockwave Therapy or sports-specific rehabilitation.

We will also carry out a biomechanical assessment here at our physio clinic, which includes posture correction and gait analysis.

Pilates is often used in conjunction with physiotherapy as a means of treating a variety of injuries, particularly those of the neck and back. There is strong evidence to suggest that Pilates can not only improve many musculoskeletal issues but also prevent injuries.
Here at Pro-Active Physio Pilates, we have a wealth of experience in Pilates, helping people of all ages and abilities to retrain and recruit stabilising muscles, as well as regain balance and stability in deep postural muscles of the body.

There is strong evidence to support the use of therapeutic exercise in the management of patients with injuries, especially of patients with lower back pain.

Although Pilates can be extremely beneficial for patients with certain injuries, it is also advantageous for everyone regardless of age or ability. Studies suggest that regular Pilates practice can help improve overall posture, muscle tone, balance and joint mobility, as well as relieve stress and tension.
