However, in some cases that minor ache doesn’t settle quickly, but in fact worsens or persists. Pain that started in your neck may spread into the shoulder and even start affecting the arm.

  I can’t recommend the Physiotherapy centre in Purbrook highly enough, from a warm and helpful welcome from reception staff to Catherine who helped me a great deal with my back problem. The exercises has given me more flexibility, thank you and will use you again.

  I sprained my ankle while out running.  After the initial swelling had gone down the Physiotherapy Centre gave me various strengthening and mobility exercises, and gradually over a number of weeks my ankle returned to full strength.  I would highly recommend the Physiotherapy Centre.

  The phsyio treatment and advice I received from Jeannette was excellent. I was given further exercises to help with my ongoing rehab that have really helped. All the staff very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended
