"I was diagnosed with vestibular migraine and was sent to Anna for Physio. At my first appointment she gave me a full assessment and explained what was going on with my vestibular system and why my symptoms had become so bad. I was given exercises to undertake on a daily basis, which I went away and focused on completing. I started to see an improvement quite quickly and am now pleased to say that I feel human again. I also know what to do and how to cope if my symptoms worsen again. I would highly recommend Anna to anyone that needs her expertise."
"I had a number of sessions with Anna, both virtual and face to face, to help me manage an ongoing back problem. These were supported with detailed exercise sheets. Anna is highly skilled and very thorough. She listened carefully. She responded quickly to any queries. I was very impressed with the high level of cleanliness and Covid-19 security Anna had put in place in her consulting room. I felt very safe. Highly recommended."
"Exercises adjusted weekly to tie in with progress"
"My knee was very stiff and painful when I first came 3 weeks ago . Following the advice and exercises I was given my knee is more flexible and the pain is diminished. I was also very impressed with the thorough examination that Anna performed at my first appointment to come to her diagnosis. Very pleased!"
"Really detailed care and attention. I have learnt a lot about my issues and been supported with making real improvements to my health. It has been a great investment in my health and the physio has been extremely knowledgeable and helpful. "

Choose the service that best suits you
Adults who experience dizziness, imbalance and vertigo know that it is a frightening and disabling condition.
If you are worried about your balance or current strength and condition with or without dizziness then the Balance Service is for you! You will be assessed to see how your balance performs against age-normal values. Balance retraining exercises will be given to suit your exact level and goals.
If you have a sore back or neck, a sports injury, repetitive strain injury, work-related injury or any other joint or muscle problem, this is the service for you.
Physiotherapists are movement specialists who aim to restore normal movement patterns and resolve pain via exercise and other modalities.
Let SpinPhysio come to you in the comfort of your own home at a time to suit you.
We can bring a pop up treatment couch or use your own chair or bed. All physio equipment needed will be brought to you.

Therapies
With over 300 different causes of dizziness it is reassuring to be able to understand your symptoms fully. A vestibular Physiotherapist can assess and reassure you as they go!
It is well known that balance worsens with age but not many people realise you can reverse some of those changes. If you need to develop your balance for whatever reason please book an appointment now.
Among the most common sports injuries are:
Improve Flexibility
A tailored programme of stretches may help your problem.
Speed up Recovery
When you are injured your body is programmed to repair itself. Sometimes we just need a little helping hand to redirect or restart our healing processes, or even speed them up.
Release Muscle Tension
Tight or weak muscles do not feel comfortable when you try to perform well at your chosen sport. A full assessment will determine what is short and or weak and why.
Relieve Tired and Achey Muscles
Perhaps you feel tired when you run in one muscle before any other, or perhaps you have one area that aches more than it should after exercise?
Ultrasound is a form of mechanical energy. Mechanical vibration at increasing frequencies is known as sound energy. The normal human sound range is from 16Hz to something approaching 15 to 20,000Hz. Beyond this upper limit the mechanical vibration is known as ultrasound.
Every tissue will absorb ultrasound differently but it is best absorbed by tendons, ligaments, scar tissue, joint capsules and fascia. The depth of treatment is on average 2 - 4 cm. It is used to treat inflammation and promote healing.
You should not feel anything except a mild warmth on some settings.
Joints can become stiff which impairs normal movement. Sometimes mobilisation is used to free up segments of your spine or your other joints.
Soft Tissue Techniques include massage, trigger point, nerve gliding and friction massage. These are used to decrease tension, improve pain, break up scar tissue or promote movement.
Taping can be used to teach your brain how to better utilise its own muscular systems. It can offload pain or rest previously strained structures.
Pilates and muscle balance go hand in hand. Your body is just like a machine, with parts that rely on each other, in this case, deep muscles and superficial muscles, each with their own purpose. Pilates helps to make you as efficient as you can be, working on your strength, function and muscle patterning from the inside out.
