Human Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy aims to increase function, performance and reduce pain. It does so by increasing range of movement, flexibility, strength and restoring normal movement patterns. Within the human industry, a chartered physiotherapist is a protected title.

 In a typical assessment, Ellen will assess each individual as a whole, this may include assessing the whole body. In addition, Ellen will take a detailed history of your pain and learn about your daily routine to learn what your injury/pain is restricting you from doing. From this specific goals are created for each client to ensure treatment is patient focused. 

Physiotherapists will use a variety of treatments and methods which will be tailored to meet the individual's needs. Chartered physiotherapists will ensure evidence based treatment is used so you receive the best up to date scientific care; ranging from exercises, hands on therapy, clinical massage, electrotherapy and education. This flexibility is exciting as not one presentation is the same and, as a result ,makes physiotherapy challenging as well as hugely rewarding. 

 By optimising your movement and improving strength and stability Ellen can help a huge range of issues from not being able to get out of a chair to improving rider performance.
