Best Physical Therapy Treatments near me in Cambridge, New Zealand

Physiotherapy is a regulated allied health profession that uses evidence-based movement, exercise, manual therapy, and education to rehabilitate injuries, manage chronic conditions, and optimise physical performance. Physiotherapists assess and treat musculoskeletal, neurological, and cardiorespiratory conditions.

Physiotherapy uses movement, manual therapy, and exercise to promote recovery from injury, illness or disability. If you visit a physiotherapist, you’re likely to be encouraged to support your recovery by doing set exercises at home.

Physiotherapists treat sports injuries, back and neck pain, post-surgical rehabilitation, joint replacements, fractures, stroke rehabilitation, chronic pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, breathing disorders, and age-related conditions affecting mobility and function.

It depends: some physiotherapy can be done at home (your physiotherapist is likely to give you exercises to practise at home anyway); but some treatments may need to be carried out at your physiotherapist’s clinic.
