General Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy is a governed and protected professional title. Physiotherapy aids in restoring movement and function when someone is affected by injury, degeneration, illness, or disability.
It takes a holistic approach that involves the patient directly in their own care.
Physiotherapists consider the body as a whole, rather than just focusing on the individual aspects of an injury or illness.
Physiotherapists help people by utilising a few key aspects of therapy including:
- Exercise Therapy

Ranging from basic movement reintroduction to the highest sporting performance recovery.
- Manual Therapy Techniques

Specific manipulations, joint, soft tissue, or nerve mobilisations
- Supporting Techniques

Such as Taping techniques, ultrasound, extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), TENs or Acupuncture.
- Education and Advice

It is a Physiotherapist’s target to ensure that each patient is well informed, conscious of all therapy benefits, and therefore can provide informed consent. A well-informed patient enhances their own target achievements in the short or long term.
