A Hydrotherapy Pool is also available, if appropriate.
Your physiotherapist will have access to physiotherapists who specialise in back, shoulder, hands, lower limb and persistent pain problems.
Your physiotherapist will also be able to advise you if further investigations are necessary or onward to referral to Orthopaedics is required.
