Services
Sports Injuries
Our sports injury rehabilitation addresses bruises, sprains, and overuse injuries through tailored recovery programs. We focus on restoring mobility, strength, and coordination to safely return patients to activity. Treatment combines manual therapy with sport-specific conditioning to prevent recurrence.
Headaches
We treat tension headaches and cervicogenic headaches through posture correction and neck muscle therapy. Our approach identifies root causes like poor ergonomics or muscle imbalances, providing both immediate relief and long-term preventive strategies through targeted exercises and lifestyle adjustments.
Knee Injuries
Specialised knee injury management covers acute trauma and overuse conditions like patellar tendinitis. Treatment includes joint mobilisation, muscle strengthening programs, and biomechanical assessments to improve stability and prevent future damage while accelerating recovery timelines.
Ankle Sprains
Comprehensive ankle sprain rehabilitation combines immediate RICE protocol guidance with progressive strengthening exercises. We assess ligament integrity to determine injury severity and develop recovery plans that restore full function while minimising re-injury risks through balance training.
Safe Manual Handling
Our manual handling training prevents workplace injuries through posture education and lifting technique correction. We provide ergonomic assessments, muscle strengthening programs, and workplace modification advice to reduce strain during physical tasks and improve occupational safety compliance.

Report
John is a miracle worker. The best physio I've been to in 20 years of treatments. I've referred 2 friends to John & they're very impressed too.
