Physiotherapy is a healthcare treatment that targets musculoskeletal conditions—problems affecting the muscles, joints, ligaments, and tendons. These injuries can be caused by poor posture, overuse, trauma, or age-related degeneration. Physiotherapists use a combination of manual therapies, exercise-based rehabilitation, and education to improve physical function, alleviate pain, and promote long-term recovery. At Crawley Physiotherapy, we focus specifically on treating musculoskeletal injuries, including chronic pain conditions, to help restore full function and mobility.
Whether you’re dealing with long-standing pain or a recent injury, physiotherapy can offer you a solution tailored to your specific condition.
Physiotherapy can be an effective treatment for both chronic and acute musculoskeletal injuries. Whether you’re experiencing ongoing discomfort from a condition such as back pain, or recovering from a recent sports injury or muscle strain, physiotherapy can help in a variety of ways:
If you’re suffering from chronic pain, whether in your neck, back, or joints, physiotherapy aims to address the root causes of your discomfort. Our physiotherapists assess your posture, movement patterns, and muscle imbalances, then create a targeted treatment plan to reduce pain and improve function. By improving mobility, strength, and posture, physiotherapy helps manage long-term pain effectively and reduces the likelihood of it recurring.
For acute injuries such as sprains, strains, and tears, physiotherapy is key to reducing pain and swelling, promoting healing, and restoring function. The treatment might include techniques such as ice or heat therapy advice, manual therapy techniques, massage and exercise prescription With the help of physiotherapy, recovery time is reduced, and you can return to your normal activities more quickly.
Musculoskeletal injuries can limit movement and functionality, but physiotherapy helps restore your range of motion through targeted exercises and rehabilitation techniques. Whether you’re recovering from surgery or a sports injury, physiotherapy strengthens the muscles, joints, and tissues to help you return to daily activities and sports.
One of the most important benefits of physiotherapy is its focus on preventing future injuries. After treating an injury, physiotherapists will teach you exercises and movements to improve muscle strength, flexibility, and coordination. Additionally, posture correction and body mechanics education can help you avoid putting excessive strain on your body during daily tasks or exercise.
At Crawley Physiotherapy, we specialise in treating a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. Below are the key conditions we focus on
Neck pain can be caused by poor posture, desk work, repetitive strain, or trauma such as whiplash. Physiotherapy treatment focuses on improving spinal alignment, relieving muscle tension, and restoring mobility.
Shoulder pain can stem from conditions like rotator cuff injuries, tendonitis, or bursitis. Physiotherapy helps reduce inflammation, strengthen the muscles, and increase range of motion.
Elbow pain, often associated with conditions like tennis elbow or golfer’s elbow, can be treated effectively with physiotherapy techniques such as manual therapy, strengthening exercises, and stretching to relieve pain and improve function.
Wrist pain, whether caused by repetitive strain (e.g., carpal tunnel syndrome) or trauma (e.g., sprains or fractures), can benefit from physiotherapy treatment that focuses on improving mobility, strength, and reducing pain.
Back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal complaints. It can be caused by poor posture, muscle imbalances, disc issues, or arthritis. Our physiotherapists use targeted treatments such as spinal mobilisation, posture correction, and strengthening exercises to reduce pain and improve function.
Hip pain can result from conditions like osteoarthritis, bursitis, or muscle imbalances. Physiotherapy helps to strengthen the surrounding muscles, improve flexibility, and reduce pain.
Knee pain can be caused by sports injuries, overuse, or conditions like osteoarthritis. Physiotherapy treatment focuses on strengthening muscles around the knee, improving joint stability, and relieving pain.
Ankle pain, whether caused by a sprain, fracture, or overuse, can be treated with physiotherapy to restore mobility, reduce swelling, and rebuild strength in the ankle joint.
Chronic poor posture can lead to musculoskeletal pain, particularly in the neck, shoulders, and back. Physiotherapy helps correct posture imbalances, strengthen core muscles, and prevent pain caused by poor alignment.
