Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy

A Physiotherapist is an allied health professional that uses a range of scientifically based assessment and treatment techniques to decrease pain, increase movement and facilitate well-being, returning the patient to day-to-day activities.

The physiotherapists at LBPC have an excellent track record in treating many acute and chronic spinal conditions. All our Chartered Physiotherapists are HCPC registered and Members of the CSP. They use a wide range of treatments options such as joint mobilisation, manipulation, soft tissue techniques, acupuncture, ultrasound, interferential, exercises therapy and Shockwave Therapy. They plan the treatment programme specific to your goals.

At LBPC our Physiotherapists will provide specialised treatment goals and rehabilitation plans for all spinal conditions. We communicate very closely with our Multi-Disciplinary Team to ensure bespoke and comprehensive treatment plans for all our patients.
