Why See Us?
Our basic areas of expertise cover muscle and joint pain, persistent pain syndromes, medically-unexplained symptoms, sports injuries and postural disorders, the treatment of pregnant women (eg pubic joint pain), babies and children (eg colic, childhood asthma and ‘growing pains’), stress-related symptoms, and post-traumatic stress disorders.
- We can tell you why you are getting pain and discomfort and what you need to do about it.
- We can tell you what signs of stress your body is showing.
- We can tell you what signs of fatigue your body is showing.
- We can tell you what consequences of previous trauma are still affecting your body.
- We can tell you how much wear-and-tear, that is, how much osteo-arthritic change is in each joint in your body – from your toes to your jaw. For example, I can tell you whether you need a hip-replacement, or how likely you are to need one in the future.

What to Expect During Your Visit
On the first visit, we take a full case history of all the details of your problem and any other medical information such as previous injuries, illnesses and general health. Then there’s a physical examination where your posture will be examined, your general flexibility, joint mechanics, muscle function, and tissue texture. We examine movement, the effects of trauma, wear and tear, disease, repeated strain, and more. So we’re providing a physical examination of every major joint and muscle system in your whole body.
