Group physiotherapy
Group physiotherapy focuses on using deep central muscles to stabilise the core while performing specific movements. These clinical exercises are designed to improve muscle strength, postural balance and tone.
There are numerous benefits of group physiotherapy, which include:
- Decreased pain of daily activities
- Preventing further episodes of pain
- Improving and maintaining good posture
- Improving muscle strength and endurance
Group physiotherapy is also great at teaching you how to recruit your muscles more efficiently to improve sports performance. A physiotherapy assessment is required prior to group physiotherapy classes, so Roger or Callum can tailor a program to your individual needs.
