Treatments by body part

We treat six groups of problems. Choose a joint on the figures to see the treatments that cover it, or scroll through all six. Every treatment starts with a 45 minute first visit.

A woman seen from behind, holding the back of her neck with one hand

Neck side bend, typical range 0° to 45°

Back and neck pain

Stiff necks, low back pain, sciatica and headaches that start in the neck.

Who it helps: People with lower back pain, a stiff or sore neck, sciatica, headaches that start in the neck, and aches from desk work or lifting.
What happens: We find the movements and positions that change your pain. Treatment is hands-on work, specific exercise and a short routine to do at home. You leave the first visit knowing what to do and what to avoid.
What we measure: How far you can bend and turn your neck and back, and how long you can sit or stand before the pain starts.
Usual course: 3 to 6 sessions over 4 to 8 weeks

Shoulder pain

Pain lifting the arm, rotator cuff problems and frozen shoulder.

Who it helps: People with pain lifting the arm, rotator cuff problems, frozen shoulder, or a shoulder that has been sore since a fall.
What happens: We check the neck, upper back and shoulder blade as well as the joint itself. Treatment is gentle mobilising, strengthening with bands and weights, and changes to how you sleep and work.
What we measure: How high you can lift the arm forward and to the side, how far it turns, and the strength of the rotator cuff.
Usual course: 4 to 8 sessions over 6 to 10 weeks
Led by: Maren Lindqvist, Isla Moreau

Elbow, wrist and hand

Tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, wrist pain and stiffness after a fracture.

Who it helps: People with tennis or golfer's elbow, wrist pain from typing or lifting, and stiffness after a fracture or a cast.
What happens: We load the tendon or joint step by step with grip and light weight exercises, and use taping or a brace for short periods when it helps. Most of the work is done at home with a small dumbbell.
What we measure: Elbow and wrist range, and grip strength in kilograms, compared with the other hand.
Usual course: 3 to 6 sessions over 6 to 12 weeks

Arthritis, pain on stairs, runner's knee and pain at the side of the hip.

Who it helps: People with knee pain on stairs, arthritis in the hip or knee, pain at the side of the hip at night, or trouble getting up from a chair.
What happens: We test strength, range and how you load the joint. Treatment mixes hands-on work with strengthening for the hip and thigh, and advice on walking, stairs and pacing.
What we measure: Hip and knee range, the strength of the hip and thigh muscles, and how many times you can stand up from a chair in 30 seconds.
Usual course: 4 to 8 sessions over 6 to 10 weeks

Sports and running injuries

Sprains, strains, tendon pain, and getting back to a race or a season.

Who it helps: Runners, footballers, cyclists, climbers and gym-goers with ankle sprains, hamstring strains, Achilles pain or a niggle that keeps coming back.
What happens: We work out why it happened, calm it down, then rebuild strength and speed in stages. You get a written return plan with checkpoints, so you know when it is safe to run, jump or play again.
What we measure: Range and strength on both sides, hop and balance tests, and the load you can run or lift without pain the next morning.
Usual course: 4 to 10 sessions over 4 to 12 weeks

Rehab after surgery

Knee and hip replacements, ligament repairs and fractures, working from your surgeon's plan.

Who it helps: People recovering from a knee or hip replacement, a ligament repair, shoulder surgery or a fracture.
What happens: We follow your surgeon's protocol. Early visits deal with swelling, walking and safe movement. Later visits rebuild strength until you are back to daily life. We send your surgeon a short report when they ask for one.
What we measure: Joint range at every visit in the first six weeks, walking speed, and strength compared with the other leg or arm.
Usual course: 8 to 16 sessions over 8 to 16 weeks
