CARDIFF PHYSIOTHERAPIST

We're here to help you look after your body, move better and feel good.

Physiotherapy is used to treat injuries that affect a patient's ability to move freely, and it can also help to prevent such injuries from occurring again in the future.

Restoring and maximising the range of movement and physical strength are the main aims of a course of physiotherapy treatment.

At PhysioSpace our goal is to help you return to what you enjoy doing quickly so you can live an effective, functional, healthy, happy and pain-free life.

Post Surgical Rehab

We specialise in:

• Manual therapy

• Soft-tissue treatment

• Injury treatment and rehabilitation

• Specific exercise therapy

Our extensive knowledge of anatomy, physiology and biomechanics enables us to diagnose and treat not only your symptoms, but also the underlying causes of your problem. As a result, we can improve the speed and effectiveness of your recovery as well as helping prevent future re-occurrences.

Over 90% of the patients we treat do not require onward referral to a specialist or any kind of surgical intervention.

However, we work closely with an extensive network of the best Consultants/Specialists in Cardiff who we can refer to for confirmation of diagnosis, further investigation or intervention (whether as injections or surgery).

Where surgery is planned, we receive regular referrals from leading Consultants and Surgeons for pre and post-operative Physiotherapy, enabling us to prepare their patients better for their surgery and to help them recover faster and more fully from it.

Treatment will usually begin during the initial session, as long as you are happy with the treatment plan that has been proposed.

The treatment methods themselves may vary, depending on what is most appropriate for you. It is likely to include mobilisations of the affected joints, exercises to improve both strength and range of motion, and massage.

You should expect to be given a set of exercises to perform on a regular basis at home, between your treatment sessions, and these are likely to change as you progress through the course of physiotherapy and make improvements.

Physiotherapy can be a valuable resource when it comes to tackling the joint and muscle pain of either a short-term acute injury or a long-term chronic condition, and can help you to restore strength and flexibility throughout the body, and then to maintain these improvements by spending a few minutes each day, or perhaps twice a day, running through a series of simple exercises.
