What is Orthopaedic Physiotherapy?
Orthopaedic physiotherapy is a specialist branch of physiotherapy that focuses on the assessment and treatment of musculoskeletal injuries caused by trauma, accidents or surgery.
Goal: Relief & Recovery
Our aim is to restore mobility and function in your musculoskeletal system by reducing inflammation and pain which can adversely affect your quality of life.
Through evidence‑based techniques and a personalised approach, we accompany you every step of the rehabilitation process with expertise and empathy.
How we work
- Assessment & Diagnosis: We begin with a thorough evaluation by a specialised physiotherapist to determine the nature and extent of your injury. This includes tests for mobility, strength, flexibility and other relevant diagnostics.
- Pain Management: Pain reduction is a key objective. We use manual therapy, electrotherapy and diathermy to relieve pain and inflammation, improving comfort and movement.
- Post‑Operative Rehabilitation: For patients who have undergone surgery, we offer an integral rehabilitation programme that promotes muscle activation and progressive recovery of mobility. Customised exercise plans support a safe return to daily activities.
- Therapeutic Exercise: We design individualised exercise programmes to strengthen weakened muscles, improve flexibility and restore balance and coordination — all essential for complete recovery.
- Patient Education: Our physiotherapists will explain your injury, treatment goals and provide guidelines for self‑care at home to help continue your recovery independently.
- Tele‑physiotherapy: We also offer tele‑physiotherapy as a convenient and effective option for remote follow‑up and personalised guidance, making treatment accessible wherever you are.
Specialised Treatments
Muscle Injuries
We apply manual therapy techniques and innovative treatments to relieve muscle contractures and trigger points. Our approach promotes the recovery of muscle strength and elasticity while reducing pain and tension.
Joint Injuries
For injuries such as dislocations or mobility restrictions in the shoulder, we use specialised techniques to restore joint mobility and alleviate pain. This includes a combination of manual therapy and specific rehabilitation exercises.
Back Pain
We treat conditions ranging from cervical pain (cervicalgia) to lower back pain (lumbalgia) with a focus on postural correction, muscle strengthening, and advanced manual therapy techniques. Our treatments provide lasting relief and help prevent future recurrences.
TMJ Disorders
For temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, such as bruxism and tension headaches, we use strategies that include relaxation exercises, pain desensitisation, and self-care techniques. Our goal is to improve TMJ function while reducing pain and discomfort.
