“Physiotherapy is a health care profession concerned with human function and movement and maximizing potential:
It uses physical approaches to promote, maintain and restore physical, psychological and social well-being, taking account of variations in health status. It is science based, committed to extending, applying, evaluating and reviewing the evidence that underpins and informs its practice and delivery.
The exercise of clinical judgement and informed interpretation is at its core”
(Chartered Society of Physiotherapy Curriculum Framework 2002)
Exercise is one of the core skills used by physiotherapists. Chartered physios have clinical training of exercise at university and on placements in the NHS to assess human movement and function. Using our medical based training, post graduate additional qualifications in pilates, kinetic control and muscle imbalance we can rehabilitate patients with a huge variety of musculoskeletal and orthopaedic conditions. We have built up a team of professionals, who we trust and respect, here at Physiocure where we all work together to bring about the best possible care for the patient.
All our physiotherapists have done formal acupuncture training through the Acupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists; and continue with regular update training on safety, current research and practice. We use dry needling, electro-acupuncture and trigger point acupuncture for relief of pain and muscle spasm. Sterile disposable needles are used.
Knowing when to treat and when not to treat is a key clinical skill of chartered physiotherapists, thus the benefit of having 'hands-on' therapy with someone who has this training. It is important to know what you are treating and why. Clinical knowledge of underlying pathology is fundamental in understanding what is safe and appropriate for a patient.
