Common Conditions We Address

Piriformis

Syndrome

Piriformis syndrome causes pain and discomfort in the buttock and can irritate the nearby sciatic nerve, resulting in numbness and tingling along the back of the leg. Our experts address piriformis syndrome through tailored manual therapy, targeted stretching, and exercises to relieve nerve compression and restore normal hip mechanics.

Dupuytren’s Contracture

This hand condition leads to thickening of the tissue under the skin of the palm, causing fingers to curl inward. Physiotherapy can help maintain mobility, improve hand function, and provide pre- and post-operative rehabilitation if surgery is required.

Gluteal

Tendinopathy

Gluteal tendinopathy is a common cause of hip pain, often resulting from overuse or biomechanical dysfunction. Our team utilizes soft tissue techniques, progressive strengthening, and corrective exercises to promote tendon healing and enhance hip stability.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you have questions about the conditions we treat or what to expect from your care, you’re not alone. Here are some of the most common questions we receive from our patients to help guide you on your path to recovery and wellness.

  • How do I know if my condition can be treated at your clinic?

    Our clinic addresses a wide variety of conditions, including muscle strains, tendon injuries, ligament tears, joint pain, nerve pain, postural dysfunction, and more. If you’re unsure whether your symptoms or diagnosis fall within our scope, please don’t hesitate to reach out. One of our healthcare professionals will be happy to discuss your health concerns and outline how our expert care can help you regain movement and relieve pain.

  • What does a typical treatment plan look like at your clinic?

    Each patient receives a bespoke treatment plan designed after a detailed assessment of their condition, medical history, lifestyle, and goals. Your plan may include a combination of manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, pain management strategies, patient education, and, where appropriate, modalities such as heat, cold, or electrotherapy. We focus not only on symptom relief, but also on long-term recovery, functional restoration, and prevention of future injuries.

  • How long will it take to see results from treatment?

    The length of time required to notice significant improvement can vary based on your specific condition, its severity, and your overall health. Some patients experience relief after just a few sessions, while others with more complex or chronic conditions may require a longer course of care. We continually reassess your progress and adjust your treatment plan to ensure optimal results, supporting you every step of the way toward full recovery.
