Physiotherapy is effective because it helps you get moving by addressing dysfunctions whether it be from biological, psychological or social origins. People will always have barriers to exercising but we can help you move better in every aspect of daily living as well as encouraging you to make time for daily body maintenance. We take our cars in for regular maintenance, we get our teeth cleaned regularly, what makes us think that we should only see if our bodies move well when we start to get pain? If a body part feels asymmetrical or stuck, it is probably affecting a joint above or below. Physiotherapists have many different treatment techniques but the end goal is all the same, help you move better!
