Product Information

Physiotherapy as described by World Physiotherapy is a health care profession concerned with human function and movement and maximising physical potential. It is concerned with identifying and maximising quality of life and movement potential within the spheres of promotion, prevention, treatment/intervention, habilitation and rehabilitation [1]. It uses physical approaches to promote, maintain and restore physical, psychological and social well-being, taking into account variations in health status. It is science-based, committed to extending, applying, evaluating and reviewing the evidence that underpins and informs its practice and delivery. The exercise of clinical judgement and informed interpretation is at its core [2]. The Chartered Society of Physiotherapy is here where you can find a list of local physiotherapists. If you haven’t had your sciatica diagnosed you should get confirmation from a health professional. There is hope! APCP, the professional network for paediatric chartered physiotherapists also has a listing service for private practitioners working as Children’s physiotherapists in the UK. Find out more here. There are many different sub-disciplines within physiotherapy. For example, some specialise in treating problems that arise from neurological conditions, like multiple sclerosis or stroke. Some also focus on assisting patients with heart and lung conditions, for example emphysema or after lung infections like pneumonia (or COVID!).

Whether or not this is implemented into daily practice will vary on the individual therapist, and may not be consistent across the entire profession. With something as potentially dangerous as asthma, he adds, patients would be wiser to get proper prophylactic treatment from conventional medicine: “Placebos don’t mend broken bones and you can’t get heart transplants from them. If you look at these professions as complementary to rather than alternative to medicine then I think you’re on much safer ground.” Chinese herbal medicine NHS advice: “Herbal remedies are medicines made up of plants, trees or fungi. However, being natural doesn’t necessarily mean they’re safe for you to take. Herbal remedies, just like pharmaceutical medicines, have an effect on the body and can potentially be poisonous.”Research suggests these passive treatments should only be used as adjuncts to active treatments. This type of therapy may be appropriate in the early stages of your care, and let's face it, most people love a massage. You could do this by speaking to your doctor, reading the biography of your practitioner, or phoning the clinic to enquire about the type of care provided prior to booking an appointment. Your health professional should be someone that walks alongside you and guides you on your rehabilitation journey. The profession is not registered with AHPRA. Myotherapists are not formally recognised under the umbrella of allied health in some regions of Australia. The heart of the physiotherapy profession is understanding how and why movement and function take place. Physiotherapy is anchored in movement sciences and aims to enhance or restore function of multiple body systems.

Physical therapy is concerned with identifying and maximising quality of life and movement potential within the spheres of promotion, prevention, treatment/intervention, habilitation and rehabilitation. You may need a referral from your GP to have physiotherapy on the NHS, although in some areas it's possible to refer yourself directly. Tantanatip A, Chang KV. Myofascial pain syndrome. StatPearls Publishing. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books, last updated 4 July 2022 You may feel a bit sore at first after doing physiotherapy exercises. But that doesn’t mean they’re harmful. Not exercising can make you stiff, and any pain worse. Manual techniques like manipulation can also cause some pain or discomfort for a short time. Many of the techniques physiotherapists use work at or close to the area that’s injured or painful. This will naturally be painful for a little while during or after your treatment. But physiotherapy generally reduces pain in the long term. Physical activity guidelines: UK Chief Medical Officers' report. GOV.UK. www.gov.uk, published 7 September 2019
