At Manchester Physio our specialist physiotherapists also provide advice and support when symptoms are changing, or during the recovery phase after a relapse.

Your physiotherapist at Manchester Physio will first assess how your current symptoms are affecting your daily life, in order to develop a structured rehabilitation programme suited to you, which may include:
  • Practicing functional activities such as transfers, sit to stand, standing balance and mobility to improve technique, confidence and success
  • Activities to facilitate normal movement patterns making functional tasks easier to achieve.
  • Balance training in different positions to promote independence with transfers and mobility.
  • Correcting posture in lying, sitting and standing to increase comfort and reduce stiffness and spasticity.
  • Active range of movement exercises to keep muscles strong and strengthen those that are weak
  • Muscle stretching to relieve stiffness or spasms and keep joints flexible.
  • Advice on walking aids, ankle braces or orthotic devices to aid everyday activities and reduce risk of falling
