Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy
Move Without Pain, Live With Strength.
Expert MSK physiotherapy in Norwich for back and joint pain, muscle strains, and sports injuries. Combining manual therapy, acupuncture, and tailored rehabilitation to get you moving again.
Treating the cause, not just the symptoms
Musculoskeletal physiotherapy treats conditions affecting the muscles, bones, joints, and soft tissues. With extensive NHS experience as a Senior Musculoskeletal Specialist, I help you manage pain, improve mobility, and restore function.
Pain and recurring injuries are often influenced by how different areas of the body move and work together, so I assess more than just the painful spot. Whether you're returning to high-impact sport or simply want everyday movement to feel easier, your recovery plan is built around a clear assessment and practical exercises that make sense.
