What is the General Clinic?
Our general clinic covers a range of common injuries you’d find in a typical Physiotherapy or Osteopathic clinic. These can range from small aches to significant pain and disability that stops you in your tracks.
Our aim is to help with pain relief and give your a longer term plan for recovery.
Common Injuries we help with
Pain can strike for a number of reasons with a vast range of diagnoses that can be affecting your. Here are some of the more common ones we see in the General Clinic everyday.
Back & Neck pain
The spine is a complex area of the body. It offers a wide array of movements, whilst supporting your organs, daily activities and allowing you sport & exercise.
There are 3-4 common types of back and neck pain that can involve discs, facet joints, nerves and muscles. Getting an accurate diagnosis is key to ensuing you have the right path to recovery.
Shoulder & Cuff issues
Like the spine, the shoulder is a surprisingly complex area. The shoulder blade and glenohumeral joint allow for a wide range of movements we often take for granted.
There are many ligaments, tendon attached to the area, as well as cartilage. Any of these tissue can become injured or develop pain from overuse or a sudden traumatic injury like a trip or fall.
Elbow, Hand & finger pain
We use this area of the body for a broad range of demands. Fine control like writing or crafting to pulling and pushing heavy objects.
Although these area are robust to these daily activities, issues like tennis elbow, RSI, carpal tunnel and tendonitis can put a quick stop to what we do on a daily basis at work and at home.
Hip, Pelvis & Groin pain
The pelvis area balances a mixture or movement and stability based demands in our daily activity.
A lack of mobility and strength in the area can lead to issues involving back pain, hip joint arthritis, pelvic floor issues. It’s also the site of common sports issue like Gilmore’s Groin, adductor and gluteal tears and tendinopathies.
Knee ligaments & Mensicus
The knee comes with a mixture of stresses and stains from work, sport and our jobs. For the size of the joint has to mange a wide range of demand like simple walking to high intensity jumping and activity.
The cartilage, tendons and ligaments in knees have to adapt to these loads over time or risk traumatic or degnerative based injuries.
Ankle, shin & foot issues
Our clinic sees a high number of lower leg injuries at all ages. These can range from plantar fasciitis like pain, ankle ligament sprains and overuse injuries affecting bones and joints.
With age this are of the body can become stiff and struggle with arthritic issues that many people feel nothing can be done about.
What to expect at the General Clinic
Expert assessment, diagnosis, treatment and longer term support. It doesn’t get much better than that!
Injury Assessment & Diagnosis
Using a in-depth case history that explores who you are and what you do, we can accurately diagnoses you pain and help you understand this is simpler terms.
We explore a range of movements that can mimic how the injury happened as well as explore more general movements to test vrious tissues.
At times we would recommend imaging e.g. MRI to be undertaken to help gather more useul information on what is happening beyond what we can see and feel.
Pain Relief & Treatment
Our team can utilise years of training in hands-on based treatment to help relieve your pain, to help you walk out better than you walked in.
Our treatment involve a wide range of the body, as we find pain can be the side effect of a wider issue drawn from a combination of areas in the body.
Treatment is rarely painful, and always explained in a way you understand and administered with your full consent. We want you to understand what we’re doing and why.
Exercise Therapy & Rehabilitation
Our therapists provide guided exercises, with rehabilitation plans that include videos and details on how to complete this at home or in the gym.
Our focus is on restoring your mobility, improving your strength & resiliance, whilst helping you to regain full movement capacity whether you’re a keen gardener to an elite level athlete.
Injury Prevention
Injury prevention is an easy phrase to throw around, with many people highlighting the value of looking after your body to stay injury free.
We help you understand that at time injury can happen due to factor beyond our control or as part of a wider picture of overall health and wellbeing. Understand this bigger picture is far more important that a good stretch.
