Joint Pain

The shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, hip, knee, ankle and foot are all susceptible to injury, whether that be through trauma or overuse. 

Traumatic injuries include a fall or sporting accident, a sprained ankle, shoulder or knee cap dislocation, or a ligament tear, such as an ACL. Overuse and overload injuries include tendon problems such as Achilles tendonitis, joint pain associated with arthritis, and tennis elbow, a painful condition affecting the outside of the elbow.

Our physiotherapists are skilled at diagnosing and treating joint problems, and use a clinical reasoning framework to develop the best course of treatment, including management strategies and tips to avoid a recurrence in the future. We stock a large range of braces and supports and can refer for investigations such as an x-ray or MRI when required.
