If you’re searching for a private hospital with top-tier physiotherapy services, our team is here to assist you.

Your initial visit will include a comprehensive assessment of your condition, allowing us to develop a personalised treatment programme tailored to your needs. We offer a variety of therapies, often combined to enhance the effectiveness of your treatment.

Our physiotherapists work as part of an integrated multi-disciplinary team, ensuring swift referrals to expert specialists and access to advanced diagnostic imaging technologies when necessary. This collaborative approach allows us to provide accurate diagnoses and promptly initiate the appropriate treatment pathway. Our diagnostic imaging services include ultrasound, X-ray, MRI, and CT scans.

 

At The Three Shires Hospital we offer the following services:

• Bracing - you may benefit from bracing if you have been suffering with painful joints, stability issues or have ongoing pain. Braces can also help with rehabilitation and returning to sport.
• Chronic pain management - if you have had persistent or long-standing pain that has failed to respond to previous treatments, then it would be helpful to consult a physiotherapist. This type of physiotherapy has been shown to assist patients with coping strategies that can help improve quality of life.
• Gait analysis - is the assessment of the lower limb biomechanics, e.g. how you stand, walk or run, to help identify problems in your legs, hips or even your back. It can help prevent painful conditions developing or recurring.
• Hand therapy - provides assessment and holistic rehabilitation for patients with a hand or upper limb injury or condition. The treatment is tailored to your needs and focuses on helping you get back to the day-to-day activities that you enjoy. For more information about Hand Therapy services at Three Shires

The purpose-built gymnasium at our hospital allows our physiotherapists to work in the most effective way possible with you. Your physio will work alongside you to develop a personalised exercise programme which is tailored to your specific needs, and they will provide expert advice on how to utilise the gym equipment to maximise your recovery. Exercise is a crucial aspect of physiotherapy as it serves to improve mobility, muscle strength, and general fitness, as well as building core stability and reducing symptoms.
