We specialise in hands on physiotherapy treatment and exercise based rehabilitation. Yes, sometimes we will use some ultrasound treatment or other electrical treatments to speed up your recovery.
Assessment and treatment appointments are discounted to £48 for 30mins for patients who pay us directly after the session.
The GAITSCAN system is a sophisiticated pressure plate with over 4000 sensors that is connected to a computer system. When we perform a GAITSCAN gait analysis our patient walks over the pressure plate which takes over 300 readings every second and feeds this to our computer system generating a very detailed report. The report shows us and our patient where most pressure is occuring under their feet, if the foot alignment is correct, we can even look the pressure under each of the toes!
If you are having persistent foot, ankle or even knee pain GAITSCAN analysis will help your physiotherapist to identify the role of faulty mechanics in your feet and ankles. This can be addressed in a number of ways- often corrective remedial exercises will be prescribed for you. Call us to book a GAITSCAN appointment now on 020 82017788. GAITSCAN assessment is charged as a standard physiotherapy assessment. As this is a physiotherapy assessment it is fully covered by most health insurance policies.
In certain cases it may be advisable to invest in a pair of prescription customised orthotics (innersoles) to improve the foot mechanics and to relieve the pain. We can send your GAITSCAN data to the GAITSCAN Lab in Canada where the scan data and prescription is used to produce your customised prescription orthotic to help correct and improve your foot function
We also offer pilates rehabilitation sessions. These are either 1 on 1 sessions or in small groups of up to 4 people. This is a physiotherapist lead pilates rehabilitation session focussing on your individual injury needs. The class is mat based using big exercise balls, foam rollers and stretchy band. These are not pilates studio sessions. Please call for more information.
Do you have a tight neck and shoulders from tension and poor posture, but no specific injury - a therapeutic massage with our massage therapist is just what you need! Or perhaps you are training for the marathon or for a sports event and need your muscles kept loose and relaxed. Our massage therapist, Helena, offers deep tissue massage, swedish massage, sports massage and massage for general relaxation. Helena will discuss with you how deep the massage needs to be.
Massage sessions are available Tuesday and Thursday evenings between 5pm and 8pm and cost £50 for an hour massage.
