Physiotherapy

Physiotherapists help restore movement and function to as near normal as possible when someone is affected by injury, illness or by developmental or other disability. As a healthcare profession, Physiotherapy's science foundation has a broad and varied range, which involves working with people to promote their own health and well-being.

Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapists provide help to people whose independence has been affected because of their condition. Assessments are carried out to analyse how people perform their chosen activities which helps establish personal goals. Occupational therapists provide treatments to achieve these goals. This will involve helping people adapt existing skills to enable them to engage in all aspects of their lives or help them learn new ones. Treatments may include advising how to adapt their environments, using equipment to help live more independently and preparing patients for discharge.
