Physiotherapy or Sports Therapy? 
There are many similarities in the services provided. Both require degree level qualification and, in our clinic, all therapists are members of their relevant governing bodies, to ensure we maintain high levels of relevant clinical practice.  
 
Physiotherapists help people affected by injury, illness or disability through movement and exercise, manual therapy, education and advice. They maintain health for people of all ages, helping patients to manage pain and prevent disease.  
 
Sports Therapists are trained specifically to deal with sports or activity related injury, and are specialised in recognising, treating and rehabilitating musculoskeletal injuries.
