Frequently asked questions.
Do I need physiotherapy or is this enough?
If your issue is more complex, ongoing, or linked to injury, physiotherapy is usually more appropriate. Hands-on treatment can help relieve symptoms, but physiotherapy addresses the underlying cause.
Is this suitable for injuries or just tightness?
It can help with both, but recent or more significant injuries often require a structured rehabilitation approach alongside treatment.
How often should I book?
This depends on your goals and symptoms. Some people benefit from occasional sessions, while others may need a short course as part of a wider rehab plan.
What’s the difference between sports massage and physiotherapy?
Sports massage focuses on relieving muscle tension and improving movement. Physiotherapy includes assessment, diagnosis, and a structured plan to resolve the root cause.
Can I combine this with rehab?
Yes — hands-on treatment is often most effective when combined with targeted exercises to support longer-term improvement.
Is acupuncture included or separate?
Acupuncture may be used as part of your session where appropriate, depending on your symptoms and treatment plan.
