Treatment Areas |
Physiotherapy is effective in the treatment of a wide range of conditions including: We are registered with all major insurance companies. |
Sports and Lifestyle Injuries |
We treat a range of sports injuries from running to surfing injuries. These may include
acute ligament sprains, muscle tears and joint problems or more long-term
sports injuries. We are passionate about helping our clients gain an effective
and speedy return to sports and quality Cornish lifestyle! Ros specialises in horse rider injuries and as she also treats horses she can provide a horse and rider postural alignment assessment. |

Back and Neck Pain |
The treatment of neck and back pain is one of our specialist areas. We can provide
effective treatment for back pain with referred pain, nerve pain, whiplash injuries
and tension headaches. The spine is a very complex functional structure
of joint alignment, muscle balance and nerve health. As physiotherapists with an
in-depth knowledge of anatomy and physiology we are in an ideal position to assess
and treat to achieve the most effective results. Ros has over 30 years of experience with spinal manipulation. Stella is currently working at Treliske as part of the specialist spinal pain clinic. |
Acupuncture, Ultrasound and Laser |
Acupuncture is a proven method of pain relief for musculo-skeletal problems and is recognised to promote good health. Acupuncture involves the insertion of fine needles at chosen points. These points may be local to the painful area. Additional recognised pain-reliving points may also be used. Ros and Stella use Acupuncture to complement their physiotherapy treatment plan. If you are interested in Acupuncture we will provide you with an information sheet providing further details. Ultrasound and laser are used to stimulate healing and gain pain relief for soft tissue injuries. Ultrasound therapy is ultrasonic waves applied to the body to help stimulate blood flow to the injured area. This process aids removal of inflammatory toxins, improves nutritional circulation in the area and assists healing |
|
Pilates and Rehabilitation |
Pilates is a mind-body conditioning programme that targets the deep postural muscles
of the abdomen and spine to improve overall core stability and posture. Pilates
has been shown to be very important for the prevention and rehabilitation
of back injuries. We offer one-one pilates training as part of our physiotherapy
treatment programme as required. We are also experienced in rehabilitation after
joint/muscle surgery, fractures and work-related pain. |
