Overview

What Is Physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy is a science-based healthcare profession that helps restore movement, function, and quality of life in people affected by injury, illness, or disability. It uses physical techniques such as exercise, manual therapy, and rehabilitation to reduce pain, improve mobility, and support long-term recovery.

Whether you’re recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or healing after a sports injury, physiotherapy plays a vital role in improving strength, flexibility, balance, and confidence.

When Should You See a Physiotherapist?

You will likely benefit from seeing a physiotherapist if you're experiencing persistent pain, reduced mobility, joint stiffness, post-operative weakness, or recovering from injury. Early physiotherapy support can accelerate healing, prevent complications, and help you get off the bench and back in action.

What Does a Typical Physiotherapy Session Involve? 

Physiotherapy sessions are carefully tailored to your condition, treatment goals, and stage of recovery. Each session is designed to reduce pain, restore mobility, and improve overall physical function through evidence-based techniques.

A typical session may include:

  • Assessment – Understanding your symptoms, medical history, and mobility challenges 
  • Goal Setting – Aligning your recovery plan with what matters most to you 
  • Hands-On Therapy – Manual techniques to relieve tension and improve movement 
  • Exercise Prescription – Guided strengthening and flexibility exercises 
  • Education – Advice on posture, movement, and lifestyle changes 
  • Progress Monitoring – Adjusting your plan as you heal and improve
