WHY PHYSIO? . . . RehabilitationDiagnosing a problem and setting out on a course of treatment is only half the story. An essential aspect of physiotherapy is rehabilitation, which may be required in order to re-educate a person so that they can safely return to work, sporting activities or just normal daily life. At Active Physiotherapy, we have vast experience in dealing with the aftermath of car accidents (eg whiplash injury) and orthopaedic surgery such as knee and hip replacements, cartilage operations, ligament repair, shoulder and back operations or those unplanned accidental fractures. We will tailor specific and general exercise programmes focusing on core stability and the correction of muscle imbalance, which is an inevitable consequence of long periods of inactivity. These programmes will range from gentle stretching to a more demanding cardio-vascular work-out or clinical Pilates-style exercises using a gym ball. |
