Physiotherapy and Exercise

All clients will go through a thorough subjective and physical examination. Based on these findings a personalized home exercise program will be prescribed to meet your needs.

Exercises may include stretching, core stability exercises and functional strength training to help you recover from your injuries.

At Bridgwater Physiotherapy we will spend time with you to ensure proper form and educate you on specific exercises to be performed. We do not believe in the “No pain, no gain” old-school thinking. In actuality, pain may inhibit your body and muscles from performing to their optimal level.

On subsequent visits the therapist will review your home exercises with you and answer any questions that you may have.

Please feel free to contact us at Bridgwater Physiotherapy if you have any questions.
