What Does a Chartered Physiotherapist Do?
A Chartered Physiotherapist is a specialist healthcare professional who assesses, diagnoses, and treats injuries, diseases, and conditions that affect the musculoskeletal, neurological, and respiratory systems. They use various techniques to correct and enhance the body’s natural healing mechanisms, without the need for medication or drugs, except when prescribed by a doctor. Their ultimate goal is to help patients achieve optimal physical function and quality of life.
Whether you’re experiencing back pain, neck pain, a sports injury, shoulder pain, whiplash, sciatica, headache, knee pain, or any other condition, a Chartered Physiotherapist can help. They begin by carrying out a thorough assessment of the patient’s condition, taking into account their medical history and current symptoms. From this, they develop a personalised treatment plan that aims to address the patient’s specific needs and goals.
Using a range of techniques such as manual therapy, exercise prescription, education, and advice on lifestyle and ergonomics, Chartered Physiotherapists work with patients of all ages to help them recover from injuries, manage chronic pain, and improve their physical function. Through close monitoring of their progress and adjustment of their treatment plans as needed, Chartered Physiotherapists help patients achieve their goals and enhance their overall health and wellbeing.
What Conditions Can Be Treated by a Physiotherapist?
A physiotherapist can help treat a variety of conditions that affect the musculoskeletal, neurological, and respiratory systems. Examples of the conditions that can be treated by a physiotherapist include spinal problems such as back pain, sciatica, and stiff/painful neck; joint problems such as arthritis, injury, and pain/swelling/stiffness in joints like shoulders, hips, and ankles; and injuries to muscle, ligaments, cartilage, and tendons, including conditions like Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI).
Physiotherapy can also assist with post-surgical rehabilitation, including rehabilitation after orthopaedic surgery like hip and knee surgery, and general physiotherapy after general surgery. Additionally, physiotherapy can help with fractures by increasing the healing rate and aiding in the regaining of full function once the bones have healed.
Understanding the various conditions that physiotherapy can assist with can be valuable in deciding whether it is the right treatment option for your specific requirements.

What To Expect from Your Physio Appointment
During a typical physiotherapy session, the patient will undergo an initial consultation that involves taking a detailed personal history and a history of the condition to be treated. A treatment plan will then be determined.
Treatment may involve:
- Manual Therapy
- Muscle imbalance and stability work
- Personal rehabilitation exercise programmes
- Soft tissue mobilisations
- Gait analysis
- Acupuncture
Once the initial consultation is completed, if additional sessions are needed, we will discuss the details with you and provide an estimate of the time required to return to your desired level of activity. You can then decide how you want to proceed.
