Physiotherapy


Here at JT Physiotherapy our main aim is to diagnose and treat your injury as soon as possible to minimise any pain or discomfort you may have. We do this through using a range of physiotherapy treatments that are tailored to suit you and your needs.

Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy is the term used to describe the field of Physiotherapy that relates to disorders of the musculoskeletal system i.e. muscles, tendons, bones, ligaments, joints and nerves. These types of injuries can be caused as a result of many different types of activities and a comprehensive diagnosis will let us find the root cause of the problem.

Our Chartered Physiotherapists are committed to applying tailored solutions that work accurately and specifically for your needs. Some of the most common conditions that we treat are:


  • Muscle pain and muscle imbalance
  • Back pain and sciatica
  • Joint pain and stiffness
  • Sports injuries including sprains and strains
  • Neck and arm pain
  • Rehabilitation post-accident/surgery
  • Headache
  • Whiplash injuries
  • Work-related upper limb disorders
  • Rheumatology/arthritis
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Fibromyalgia/chronic fatigue syndrome

Early physiotherapy diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders is key in minimising pain, swelling and tissue damage, preventing stiffness and ensuring a quicker return to sports, work and other activities. Therefore, it is in in your best interest to seek help as soon as you can to make sure you receive the right treatments as soon as possible.


Our Chartered Physiotherapists will assess your problem to help alleviate the pain and prevent it reoccurring. This can be through the use of the following treatment options:


  • Active Release Techniques
  • Mobilizations and Manual Therapy
  • Functional Movement Screening (FMS)
  • Dry needling
  • Kinesiology Taping
  • Home Exercise Prescription

FAQS

Here are answers to some common questions. 
  • What does a Physiotherapy Treatment involve?

    An initial consultation involves our Chartered Physiotherapist asking a series of questions to learn about your problem. Based on these findings, our Physiotherapist will then ask you to perform certain movements to further diagnose the source and cause of your problem. During the initial assessment, there is also time for some hands-on treatment to relieve your pain. You will also be prescribed some home exercises and given advice on how you can help speed up your recovery.

  • What will I wear or do I need to bring anything?

    We advise that you wear comfortable and loose-fitting clothes to your appointment. If your area of injury is in the lower limbs we recommend that you bring a pair of shorts, we have facilities for you to change where needed. If you have X-ray or MRI results it is a good idea to bring these so we can take a copy with your permission.

  • How many sessions will I need?

    This very much depends on the type, duration and severity of your injury. At the end of your first appointment, our Chartered Physiotherapists will discuss with you the estimated number of treatments required for your injury. Every patient is different so healing times vary, we will reassess your progress at each visit. Of course, it is always up to you whether you would like to continue with treatment.

  • Do I need a Doctor’s referral for Physiotherapy?

    No, a doctor’s referral is not necessary – you are free to contact us directly whenever you need an appointment.

  • Can I claim on my health insurance?

    This depends on your individual health insurance policy. All our Physiotherapists are Chartered, which means they are recognised by all major health insurers. This means you can often claim back some of your treatment costs if you have private health insurance, click here for further details.

  • How can I pay?

    We accept cash and credit card payments at JT Physiotherapy. Payment must be made after each appointment and receipts are always provided.

  • What if I need to see a Specialist or require surgery?

    We have established close relationships with local G.P’s, Consultants & Specialists so we can arrange a referral for you if you need one. We will help you decide the best course of action and advise you on possible outcomes etc. We can also advise you if you need referral for X-ray, MRI, Blood Tests etc.
