Musculoskeletal physiotherapy
Our musculoskeletal physiotherapy team is a part of the MSK together alliance, a unique partnership of health organisations across Mansfield, Ashfield, Newark and Sherwood.
Our physiotherapy team can help you manage a wide range of issues effecting muscles, joints, bones, and tendons, alongside common problems like back pain, neck pain, and osteoarthritis. These are called Musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions.
Our aim is to help people better understand and self-manage their MSK conditions and promote independence. We consider all aspects of the client's lifestyle, work, and leisure within our treatment, with the overall goal of better managing their condition and preventing it in the future where possible.
We aim to provide the right care at the right time, allowing you to maximise your independence, understand your choices, and focus on what matters to you.
Common treatment options we use are advice, education, exercise, group sessions, and manual therapy.
