What this care covers
Orthopaedic physiotherapy deals with problems of the bones, joints, ligaments and muscles. It is commonly used after a knee or hip replacement, for back or neck pain, for recovery after a fracture, and for people living with arthritis. Your physiotherapist will assess how you are moving, use hands-on techniques where helpful, and give you exercises to do between sessions so the improvements stick.
