Physiotherapy UK 2019

At Spires Physiotherapy, we believe strongly in continuing our professional development and constant learning. That’s why members of the Spires Physiotherapy team attended the Physiotherapy UK Conference 2019 in Birmingham this year. It was a great chance for the team to observe the current landscape within the profession and get an update on some of the fantastic projects going on around the UK physiotherapy community. Each team member attended a variety of seminars and lectures on hot topics such as complexity in musculoskeletal pain, diagnostic ultrasound imaging and strength training in physiotherapy. We had a great time, met some interesting people and heard some inspiring speakers. We look forward to sharing our learning in our next in service training session and planning our next team outing.

Goals

Once you have a working diagnosis for your injury, we’ll guide you through a staged rehabilitation plan which is targeted towards your exercise goals. Whether you want to return to running, weight-lifting or gardening, your rehabilitation plan will reflect this and your physiotherapist will always keep your goals in mind when treating you. Rather than just treating your symptoms, our holistic approach will get you back to your best, but even fitter and more resilient than before. That’s how we keep you doing what you love doing without re-injuring yourself.

Time

You won’t be in and out of the door within half an hour. We allocate 65 minutes for every appointment. Most initial appointments last 55-60 minutes and follow-up sessions tend to take-up 45-50 minutes. This allows your physiotherapist plenty of time to focus on you, build a tailor made plan and write-up your notes without encroaching on your face-to-face time.

What we will do is take a pragmatic approach, using our extensive clinical experience alongside the best available scientific evidence to treat you effectively and get you back to your favourite sports or activities.
