Physiotherapy assessment, treatment and rehabilitation
One-to-one physiotherapy with Ash
Your physiotherapy appointment starts with understanding the problem and the activities you want to return to. Ash will discuss your symptoms, assess relevant movement and explain the findings before agreeing on a practical treatment and rehabilitation plan with you.
Ash works with adults who want help with pain, stiffness, injury, rehabilitation or movement concerns. His particular interests include neck and lower-back problems, musculoskeletal pelvic pain, TMJ/jaw conditions and sport-related movement.
Common areas physiotherapy may assess include the jaw, shoulder, back, knee and ankle.
What can physiotherapy help with?
Physiotherapy may be useful when pain, stiffness or reduced confidence in movement is affecting work, exercise, sport or everyday life. Ash commonly works with:
neck pain and some neck-related headaches
lower-back and musculoskeletal pelvic pain
TMJ/jaw pain and movement problems
shoulder, hip, knee, ankle and other musculoskeletal injuries
post-operative rehabilitation when physiotherapy is appropriate
swimming-related shoulder issues, running mechanics, cycling mechanics and triathlon movement
Some symptoms require medical, dental or specialist assessment. Ash will discuss this with you and recommend referral where appropriate.
What your assessment involves
Your first appointment includes a conversation about your symptoms and goals, a physical and movement assessment, and an explanation of the findings.
Agreeing on your treatment plan
Your plan may include hands-on physiotherapy, targeted exercise, movement retraining, education and practical strategies for daily life or sport.
Reviewing progress and adjusting rehabilitation
You will see Ash directly at every appointment, so your plan remains consistent and can be adjusted as you progress.
