About Physiotherapy

What does physiotherapy involve?

Physiotherapy is a science-based health profession that takes a whole-person approach to health and wellbeing — including your general lifestyle. Your Innate Healthcare physiotherapist will assess, diagnose and treat your condition using a range of evidence-based techniques including manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, electrotherapy and education.

Whether you're recovering from surgery, managing a sports injury or dealing with a chronic condition, physiotherapy can help you regain function, reduce pain and return to the activities you love.

Physiotherapy techniques we use

  1. Manual therapy — Joint mobilisation and soft tissue techniques to restore movement and reduce pain.

  2. Exercise therapy — Tailored strengthening and stretching programmes to rebuild function safely.

  3. Electrotherapy — TENS, ultrasound and other modalities to support healing and reduce inflammation.

  4. Dry needling — Trigger point needling for stubborn muscle tension and myofascial pain.

  5. Education & self-management — We equip you with the knowledge to manage your condition and prevent recurrence.

Is physiotherapy safe?

Yes. Physiotherapy is a regulated healthcare profession. All physiotherapists at Innate Healthcare are registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and are members of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) — the UK's professional body for physiotherapists. This means they meet strict standards of education, clinical practice and professional conduct.

Physiotherapy is suitable for a wide range of patients, from children and young athletes to older adults managing long-term conditions. Your physiotherapist will tailor every session to your specific needs, health history and goals.

Evidence-based care: Physiotherapy is recommended by NICE for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions including low back pain, osteoarthritis and sports injuries. Our approach always follows current clinical guidelines.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions

Do I need a GP referral?

No. You can self-refer directly to our physiotherapy service. Many patients come to us without seeing their GP first.

How is private physio different to NHS?

No waiting lists, longer appointments, more continuity of care and a fully personalised treatment plan tailored to your goals.

What should I wear?

Comfortable, loose-fitting clothing is ideal. Shorts are useful for lower limb conditions so your physiotherapist can assess the area freely.

Will I get exercises to do at home?

Yes. Home exercises are a core part of your recovery and help you progress faster. We provide clear guidance and adjust your programme as you improve.
