Services

We offer a comprehensive range of physiotherapy services to treat both acute and chronic conditions. Each treatment plan is tailored to ensure the best possible recovery.

Manual Therapy: Our physiotherapists use hands-on techniques like mobilisation and manipulation to relieve pain, restore movement, and improve flexibility. These treatments are highly effective for conditions like back, neck, and joint pain.

Chronic Pain Treatment: If you have long-term pain, our team can provide targeted treatments that focus on the root causes of your discomfort. We help manage chronic pain from conditions such as back pain, nerve pain, and repetitive strain injuries.

Gunn IMS & Dry Needling: For chronic pain relief, we offer Gunn IMS and dry needling. These treatments target muscle trigger points to relieve pain and improve function. They work particularly well for conditions like tendinitis, whiplash, and sports injuries. Niall McGregor, our lead physiotherapist, is the only practitioner in Scotland offering these advanced techniques, helping patients find lasting relief from long-term pain.

Sports Massage: Our sports massage therapy is designed to target specific areas of tension in your body. Whether you are a professional athlete, a weekend sports enthusiast, or someone dealing with general muscle soreness, our therapists use specialised techniques to help relieve tight muscles and promote faster recovery.

Acupuncture: We offer acupuncture as part of our pain management services. This treatment is effective for addressing musculoskeletal issues, such as joint pain, headaches, and muscle stiffness.
