Advice from our physiotherapists

With the current restrictions for socialising, it is so easy to live a sedentary life.

Everyone who attends physiotherapy will have their own programme designed for them and your physiotherapist will be in touch to see how you are getting on – there is no escape!

Similar exercise in sitting (can be done on floor, sitting on chair or in wheelchair). A theraband would be perfect for this but you can improvise with a piece of rope or even some old tights. 
 

If you have found a particular article or exercise especially helpful please let us know and we will share this with your fellow members.
