Orthopaedics: joint pain, joint repair/ replacement and trauma
As the physically active baby boom generation “ages gracefully”, their joints are showing signs of wear and tear (osteoarthritis). Physio2go® can help our patients to cope with acute flare-ups of chronic joint disease, including osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Our physiotherapists offer a range of treatments aimed at pain management, reducing inflammation and increasing mobility including treatments for sports injuries and back pain.
Physio2go offers the following treatments to our orthopaedic surgery, arthritis and trauma patients:
- Accurate assessment, diagnosis and treatment.
- A holistic approach of manual therapy, electrotherapy, acupuncture and exercised based treatment.
- Personalized exercise plans which can be emailed or printed out for your convenience.
Joint repair and replacement
Improved technology and increased availability is leading to more people opting for joint replacement surgery. Each year over 75,000 people in England and Wales receive new hips or new knees, most of these are performed because of osteoarthritis.
Physio2go specializes in providing a fully integrated package of care that can include treatment in your own home when it is not possible to visit our clinic(s). This enables you to continue receiving treatment when it is most beneficial, avoiding the frustration and anxiety that delays can cause.
Our clinical team offers advice and treatment to patients before and after surgery.
Our mobile unit is the missing link between your hospital procedure and clinic treatment.
What our patients think…
“I found the physio2go home visit service of great value after my knee replacement surgery on two counts: Firstly, it gave me re-assurance in the immediate post-operative stage when I had no bench marks from previous experience about my mobility. Secondly I was able to target from the start the exercises most beneficial to my recovery and start my physiotherapy in a disciplined way.
Lord (Tom) McNally
“I had to undergo bilateral knee replacement recently following an accident, After the operation physiotherapy was essential, but the journey to and from the hospital proved counter-productive and Physio2Go was recommended because physios there would treat me at home. In due course, Fiona Jacobsen arrived, and with her help and guidance, I have made tremendous progress. Her professional approach coupled with infinite patience (I was not her easiest patient!) has been remarkable and now, eight months post-operatively, I am walking normally. In the past few months, there have been times when I was close to despair, but Fiona's firmness and encouragement, mixed with a sense of humour have kept me going. Needless to say, I am extremely grateful to her and can highly recommend her to anyone in a similar situation.”
