What we do
Twelve things we treat, every week.
Hands-on assessment first, then a plan you can actually keep to. Most people leave the first session knowing exactly what is going on and what happens next.
Musculoskeletal & pain
Backs, necks & all other joints
The bread and butter: stiff necks, sore backs, headaches, jaws, shoulders, hips and knees. Assessed properly, treated hands-on.
most first visits
Sports injuries
From weekend parkrun niggles to season-ending tears — acute care, return-to-sport testing and honest timelines.

Pain management
We treat both recent pain and ongoing or persistent pain. Recent pain is often closely related to injury, inflammation or healing tissues and may respond well to targeted treatment and rehabilitation. When pain persists, the picture can become more complex, with changes in sensitivity, movement, sleep, stress and the body’s protective systems all influencing recovery. We take a whole-person approach to persistent pain, including chronic musculoskeletal pain, hypermobility, and pain following cancer treatment, helping people understand their pain, restore movement and function, and build confidence in what their body can do.
recent & persistent pain
Recovery
Rehabilitation & post-operative care
Structured programmes after surgery or injury, progressed at your pace and coordinated with your surgeon.
post-op · post-injury
Chest & sinuses
Chest clearance and breathing work for adults and post-operative patients; sinus treatment for the stubborn ones.
all ages
Persistent or chronic pain
Persistent or chronic pain
Persistent or chronic pain is a complex problem that behaves differently from a recent injury or onset. It usually involves changes across several interacting body systems, and may affect movement, sleep, stress, mood and daily life. Rehabilitation therefore takes a whole-person approach, helping people understand their pain, gradually return to activity, build strength and physical capacity, manage stress and other contributing factors, and develop practical strategies for living well. The aim is to reduce the impact of pain on function and quality of life and restore confidence in movement and everyday activities.
recent & persistent pain
Oncology
Cancer rehabilitation
Physiotherapy can support people during and after chemotherapy to manage treatment-related side effects and regain confidence in everyday activity. Rehabilitation is tailored to the individual and may address fatigue, weakness and deconditioning, reduced balance, peripheral neuropathy, pain and changes in mobility or physical function. Through appropriate exercise, pacing, symptom management and gradual progression of activity, the aim is to rebuild strength and capacity, support independence and help people return to the activities that matter to them.
during & after treatment
Life stages
Maternity care
Through pregnancy and after birth — pelvic girdle pain, back pain, safe movement and returning to exercise.
pregnancy · postnatal
Pelvic health & incontinence
Discreet, evidence-based treatment for bladder, pelvic floor and pelvic pain problems. More treatable than most people assume.
women & men
Keeping older people active
Balance, strength and confidence work so that independence lasts — plus arthritis and falls management.
65+
Electrotherapy
Shockwave therapy
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses targeted acoustic waves to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. It can help reduce pain, improve circulation, promote tissue healing and restore function, making it a useful treatment option for a range of musculoskeletal and sports-related conditions. Shockwave therapy is commonly used for conditions such as tendinopathies, plantar fasciitis, chronic muscle pain and other persistent soft-tissue injuries. At Physios in Touch, we combine shockwave therapy with exercise, manual therapy and an individualised rehabilitation programme.

Horses and dogs, treated with the same assessment logic as their people — performance, injury and post-op recovery.

Who we work with
Allied practitioners share our rooms, so a knee that turns out to be a foot problem does not become your admin.
