What is Physiotherapy?

We’re often we’re asked the question: “What is Physiotherapy?” So, hopefully we can answer that here:

Physiotherapists are health professionals who work in partnership with their patients to help them get better and stay well.

Physiotherapy helps to reduce stiffness and pain, promote tissue healing and improve mobility and quality of life.

At Body Works we specialise in the management of “musculo-skeletal” conditions. This means we help people of all ages with joint, bone, muscle and soft tissue injuries, such as back or shoulder pain, sports injuries and work related problems.

We can help to restore movement and function when you are affected by injury, illness, disability or pain. We do this primarily through a combination of different manual therapy techniques, exercise prescription, movement, education and advice.
