Physiotherapy at Vanbrugh focuses on restoring your movement, reducing your pain, and helping you return to the activities you love – whether you’re recovering from injury, managing a long-term issue, or trying to move more freely.
Your treatment may include hands-on techniques, tailored rehab exercises, and clear guidance built around your goals. We treat a wide range of conditions, from back, neck, and joint pain to sports injuries, post-surgical rehab, and workplace-related tension.
Many of us are living with aches and pains that stop our body from moving the way it’s meant to – and stop us from doing the things we love.
Maybe it’s been this way for so long you’ve just learnt to live with it. You’ve given up some of the activities you love. Running around with your kids, or grandkids, is no longer possible and enjoying the exercise and sport that used to keep you physically and mentally fit is just not an option anymore.
That’s miserable, and it shouldn’t be that way! We truly believe that no-one should have to put up with pain and stiffness that stops them from doing the things they love.
Whether you have back pain, neck or shoulder pain, hip or knee pain or pain of any description – physiotherapy can help!
Our highly-skilled therapists treat a wide range of conditions, including:
If you are experiencing pain and it feels muscular or joint-related, a consultation with a physiotherapist is recommended. If you are recovering from a fracture or from orthopaedic surgery, physiotherapy can help your recovery process. Physiotherapy can also be helpful in restoring movement to your body and getting back to the activities you love.
Physiotherapy is suitable for all ages, from young children to the elderly.
Physiotherapists use a range of manipulation and massage techniques, electrical therapies, and exercise to heal and restore movement. Your treatment may include hands-on techniques, tailored rehab exercises, and clear guidance built around your goals.
Patients often feel relief from pain or discomfort they may be experiencing after an initial consultation. Further relief and improvement in the underlying condition is generally expected within the first 3 to 4 treatments.
Your initial session is all about getting to know you: how you move, what’s bothering you, and where you want to be.

All our physiotherapists are Chartered and registered with the Health Professions Council. Physiotherapists also have additional specialist knowledge in the fields of acupuncture, sport and exercise rehabilitation, and Clinical Pilates.
Our physiotherapists work closely with GPs and Consultants, and are recognised by all the major private health insurance companies including BUPA and AXA PPP.
Your initial consultation will last 60 minutes, plenty of time for your physiotherapist to carry out a full assessment. They will listen to your story about the problem you’re experiencing, how it’s affecting you and what your health and wellbeing goals are.
They will also carry out a physical assessment, looking at how you move and performing any specific manual therapy tests that will help them assess the problem.
Next your physiotherapist will recommend a highly tailored treatment plan, consisting of both face-to-face consultations and a home exercise program.
Consultations can vary in length, depending on your problem, but routinely last between 30-60 minutes. Our patients usually visit us on average 6-8 times for any one particular problem, and don’t need to return for endless sessions or maintenance.
Our focus at Vanbrugh Physio is to empower you to take charge of your body with a home exercise and fitness routine that works for you and your lifestyle. Your physiotherapist will discuss everything with you, as you plan your treatment program together.
In most cases, you can be back doing the things you love in just a few weeks (for less than £500), safe in the knowledge that we are here to support you every step of the way.
