Who Do We Treat?

The osteopaths and physiotherapists based in our Derby muscle and joint clinic assess, diagnose and treat conditions such as:

  • General aches and pains including rheumatic pain and fibromyalgia
  • Neck pain (if arising from an accident- seek medical help initially) including headaches and migraines
  • Shoulder and arm pain including frozen shoulder, tennis and golfers elbow arising from muscles and joints of the back and neck
  • Back pain; acute (if arising from an accident- seek medical help initially)and chronic eg lumbago
  • Hip and knee pain including from osteoarthritis as an adjunct to standard OA treatments and exercise
  • Nerve pain eg in legs pain such as sciatica, or trigeminal neuralgia
  • Sports injuries, muscle spasms, cramp,
  • Postural problems
  • Age related pain eg arthritis, circulatory problems and and we supply recommended exercises to improve balance
  • All of the above also whilst pregnant  as well as joint pain such as SPD, pelvic pain,
  • Babies through to adults: inability to relax and digestion problems
  • Children’s pain

If there is joint pain, bone pain, muscle or ligament pain or pain in your body
which you are unsure about but you think may be musculo-skeletal, then come for
an assessment session where we can form a diagnosis, treat you with a variety of techniques and show you exercises to help you get better as quickly as possible.

This initial screening highlights any health issues which may be treated more
appropriately with another practitioner –eg a Doctor or one of our Therapists
eg Sports Massage or Holistic Massage Therapist – saving you both time and
money and enabling your problem to resolve more quickly.

If we think you need to see your doctor or a specialist, or need a scan or x-ray,
we will tell you so you can gain treatment quickly.

you want to lead, as soon as possible-then we help you to stay there.
