Physiotherapy Information
For those who have physio therapy plans, 30 minutes a day can be hugely beneficial.
It is also advised to give a change of position every 2 hours including sitting, lying on their back, side lying and lying on their tummy.
By receiving physio stretches it creates an opportunity to experience different positions which is very important. It also strengthen the muscles which supports mobility and control.
Not only does Physiotherapy relieve stress, tension and pain and is an excellent opportunity for 1:1 time! You can be inventive and create different environments for this special time too.. a disco room, a beach in the sunshine.. have fun!
For anyone known to the Physiotherapy team you are able to contact them on 01582 346 000 should you have any concerns.
