What we treat

Six specialities, one clinic.

Orthopaedic

Joints, bone and soft tissue

Post-fracture, post-replacement and the long-running back and knee pain that most people arrive with. Assessment first, then a loading plan you can keep up between sessions.

Ask about orthopaedic care

Whichever one brought you here, it is the same team, the same two rooms in R.S. Puram and the same notes following you through.

Where the treatment happens.

Ground floor, no stairs. If getting here is the hard part, we come to you instead.

Clinic sessions

Sixty minutes in R.S. Puram. One therapist, one patient, the full equipment room.

Home visits

We bring the portable units to you, six days a week across the city.

Video follow-up

Fifteen minute reviews once the hands-on phase is finished.

“Most people arrive having already been told to rest. Rest is rarely the treatment. The job of the first session is to find out what you can still do safely, and build from there.”

Who treats you

Four physiotherapists, each with one department.

You are assigned to the department your condition belongs to, not to whoever is free that afternoon.

The equipment, and what each piece is for.

Settling pain and swelling

Usually the first two weeks, and usually alongside hands-on work rather than instead of it.

  • Interferential therapy

    Deep pain relief for the lower back and knee

  • TENS

    Surface nerve stimulation for sharp, localised pain

  • Moist heat therapy

    Hydrocollator packs to loosen tissue before treatment

  • Cryotherapy

    Cold for acute swelling in the first two days

Restoring movement

The part that decides whether the pain stays away once you stop coming in.

  • Therapeutic ultrasound

    Sound waves for tendon and soft tissue healing

  • Cervical and lumbar traction

    Decompression for disc-related nerve pain

  • Manual therapy

    Joint mobilisation and soft tissue release by hand

  • Therapeutic exercise

    Graded loading you carry on with at home

What people walk in with.

Tap whichever one is yours. It opens a message with the complaint already written, and a physiotherapist answers it.

Not on the list? Describe it to us and we will tell you honestly whether physiotherapy is the right call, or whether you need a different specialist first.

Before you book

The questions we get asked.

Ask us something else

No. You can book an assessment directly. If we think you need a scan or an orthopaedic opinion before physiotherapy is safe, we will tell you at the first session rather than start treating you.

What patients say afterwards.

“I could not lift my right arm above my shoulder for four months. After eleven sessions I hang my own washing on the line again.”
