Why Physiotherapy?
Physiotherapists are ideally situated to prevent injury.
This can take the form of classes, workshops, equipment consultation, workstation assessment, pre-employment screening or work hardening programmes,
When you come to Willis Street Physiotherapy we: - give you cost-effective, efficient management of discomfort, pain and injury (DPI)
- reduce your recovery time
- in complex cases, identify problems early and refer when necessary.
If you have a DPI that’s not clearing after a few days, you should definitely seek physiotherapy. Early management of injuries like sprains and strains can avoid lengthy recovery times.
If you have a sudden acute strain/sprain which has an easily identifiable cause – usually involving an unexpected force – then you should follow the RICEM (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation, Movement) regime, immediately after and for up to 3 days following the injury.
Not sure if you need physiotherapy? Discuss it with your GP or email us directly.
