MUSCULOSKELETAL
PHYSIOTHERAPY SERVICES
The goal of our Devon musculoskeletal physiotherapy is to reduce pain, improve function, and promote overall health and well-being. We take a comprehensive approach to treatment that includes:

ASSESSMENT
& DIAGNOSIS
Our physiotherapists begin with a thorough assessment of the patient's condition, including taking a detailed history and performing a physical exam. We may also use diagnostic imaging, such as X-rays or MRI scans, to help diagnose the condition accurately.

THERAPEUTIC
MODALITIES
We may use various modalities during your musculoskeletal physiotherapy treatment to help with pain, circulation, swelling and muscle spasms. This includes heat or ice therapy, electrical stimulation, and INDIBA.

EXERCISE
THERAPY
Exercise therapy is a core component of musculoskeletal physiotherapy. We design customiSed exercise programs that are specific to the patient's condition and goals. These exercises may include stretching, strengthening, and range of motion exercises to improve function and prevent further injury.

PATIENT
EDUCATION
Education is a crucial aspect of musculoskeletal physiotherapy. We educate our patients on their condition and how various treatments can help alleviate pain and improve function. We also provide advice on how to prevent further injury and promote overall health and well-being.

MANUAL
THERAPY
Soft tissue massage, joint mobilisation, and manipulation are all types of manual therapies we recommend, as they can help alleviate pain, improve your range of motion, and reduce muscle tension.

HOLISTIC
APPROACH
Our approach combines many different therapies to reduce pain, improve mobility, and restore your strength. We focus on enhancing posture, boosting coordination, and supporting day-to-day activities, helping you to return to normal life.
