Our Services

Chiropractic

Chiropractors specialise in the diagnosis, treat­ment and manage­ment of mech­an­ical prob­lems of the spine and other joints. They utilise many different types of treat­ment, typic­ally manual therapy, but also provide profes­sional advice on exer­cise, rehab, nutri­tion and lifestyle.

Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy helps restore move­ment and func­tion when you are affected by injury, illness or disab­ility.  Physiotherapists help people through move­ment and exer­cise, manual therapy, educa­tion and advice.  At Protherapy, we have the exper­i­ence to provide a specific rehab­il­it­a­tion plan to help manage your pain, recover from injury, restore func­tion and achieve your goals.

Sports injury rehabilitation

Sports injuries happen – we know that – but getting the right advice at the start of your recovery is crucial so you know what you are dealing with and the best options for treat­ment.  We will estab­lish a three phase rehab­il­it­a­tion plan that allows the injury time to recover; restores flex­ib­ility and strength; and finally builds sport-specific func­tion and agility to allow for a successful return to play.

Surgical Prehab and Rehab

Protherapy has extensive know­ledge and exper­i­ence with both pre-habilitation before joint surgery (e.g. knee and hip replace­ment) and rehab­il­it­a­tion following surgery, providing crucial advice and guid­ance from the very begin­ning to your longer term recovery.  With estab­lished links to locally renowned ortho­paedic surgeons, we can work with you to help maximise the best possible outcomes after your operation.

Joint Injections

Hyaluronic Acid injec­tions for joint pain asso­ci­ated with osteoarthritis.

Hyaluronic Acid is a natur­ally occur­ring molecule that helps provide cush­ioning and lubric­a­tion within a normal joint. It is found in high concen­tra­tion within all healthy joints, but reduces with age.

OSTENIL® PLUS is a medic­a­tion containing hyalur­onic acid developed specific­ally for the treat­ment of osteoarth­ritis. It is injected directly into the joint space that contains synovial fluid to help decrease pain and stiff­ness and improve the symp­toms of osteoarth­ritis. OSTENIL® PLUS has been extens­ively tested and has not been found to cause any serious side effects, allowing for repeat injec­tions to help manage joint pain.

As with all injec­tions there is a very small risk of infec­tion and occa­sional post injec­tion pain at the site, which may last a day or so. OSTENIL® PLUS should not be used in patients with ascer­tained hyper­sens­it­ivity to any of its constitu­ents and is not recom­mended in preg­nant and lactating women or in inflam­matory joint diseases such as rheum­atoid arth­ritis or ankyl­osing spondylitis.

Ostenil Plus joint injec­tion fee: £280 (including Consultation fee)
