Background

Physiotherapy began originally as an extension of massage therapy in the United Kingdom. Physiotherapists used to work under the supervision of a surgeon in hospitals but as the practice of physiotherapy developed it grew into it’s own separate profession, treating patients with injuries, illnesses or even after surgery. Physiotherapists not only provide massage but also offer ultrasound treatment, medical acupuncture, shockwave therapy, plus exercise routines and advice.



Physiotherapist For All

Our Physiotherapists have worked in prominent postgraduate positions in the NHS, in private sectors and for sports teams for a number of years. In addition they receive our own high standard of in-house training, making them exceptionally qualified to deal with any injury or rehab protocol. We also pride ourselves on the friendly and trust worth service provided by our therapists which all adds up to unrivalled Physical Therapy care.

Sports Physiotherapy

As well as treating acute pain and injury our physiotherapists are trained to spot and treat injuries before they happen which is why we have gained a reputation amongst many sports men and women who visit Spine Plus either as part of their preparation before or after a sporting event or as part of an as on-going maintenance and injury prevention regime.
