Abbey Physiotherapy

Abbey Physiotherapy offers assessment and advice on acute and chronic conditions, given in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. We can even visit you at home if you are unable to attend the clinic due to your condition. Our experienced physiotherapists can offer treatments for many complaints, including:

• Soft tissue injuries, eg. muscle and ligament sprains and strains
• Fractures and dislocations
• Spinal complaints, eg. sciatica, trapped nerves, disc prolapse
• Peripheral complaints, eg. upper and lower limb problems
• Arthritis/rheumatic conditions
• Repetitive strain injuries
• Assessment of undiagnosed aches and pains

We can provide ongoing relief from the pain of long-term conditions, as well as one-off treatments for temporary problems. We can treat all ages from children through to mature adults and the elderly.

Our clinic hours fit in with your lifestyle, with evening and weekend appointments by arrangement. We can even visit you in your home if your condition makes you immobile (depending on the treatment required).

Our physiotherapists have a wide range of knowledge and experience, and have access to many types of treatment and exercise equipment in our well equipped clinic. Our treatments include:
