Services we offer
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy helps to restore movement and function as well as reduce pain when someone is affected by injury, illness or disability. It takes a holistic approach which involves the patient directly in their own care. During an initial consultation we aim to assess, diagnose and establish your treatment plan to get you on the road to recovery as quickly as possible!
Scar Therapy
Scar therapy can help care for your scar and the underlying tissue. We can address issues such as pain after surgery or injury, limited movement or tightness, pulling or puckering, fibrous scar tissue or scar adhesions. Your appointment will include a special scar massage plus useful advice for caring for your scar at home. A scar therapy appointment in the first 6 months after a scar is created is really helpful (even if you are not experiencing any complications) but it’s never too late to benefit from scar treatment!
Injection Therapy
Injection therapy is used primarily to reduce pain, swelling and improve range of movement. It involves the infiltration of a pain relieving medication or substance into either the soft tissue or joint via a needle. Here at FHW we offer Steroid Injections, Hyaluronic Acid Injections and Arthrosamid® Injections. Our injection specialist will be happy to discuss these options with you.
Lymphoedema Management & MLD
Lymphoedema is a long term chronic condition which causes swelling in the body’s tissues. The condition is best treated early when symptoms begin but you can benefit from assessment and treatment at any time.
Your initial appointment may include; assessment and measurement for compression therapy, recommendations for the appropriate skin care, prescription of exercises as well as treatment using a multitude of techniques, including manual lymphatic drainage, to reduce and treat the oedema.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy can be beneficial for anyone with injury, irritation or tension. Here at Fortis we have specialists in sports massage therapy which is a deeper form of soft tissue mobilisation and pregnancy massage which is a therapeutic massage for pregnant women. Each massage is tailored to the client’s individual needs and treatment may include stretching and trigger point work alongside traditional massage techniques.
