Physiotherapy in Torrevieja
Treatment of pain and musculoskeletal injury with hands as the main tool: we assess, we treat, and we give you guidance so that the ground you gain holds.
When it makes sense to come in
Physiotherapy works on muscle, joint and movement. It does not replace a medical diagnosis, but it can ease pain, bring back movement that has been lost, and teach you not to repeat whatever injured you.
- Pain that has gone on for days without easing, or that keeps coming back.
- Stiffness or loss of movement after an injury, a cast or an operation.
- Discomfort that always turns up in the same movement: bending down, running, sitting for hours.
What we treat
These are the most common reasons people come to see us. If yours is not on the list, just ask: that is precisely what the initial assessment is for.
Manual therapy and therapeutic massage
Hands-on work on muscle knots, tender points and stiffness in the neck, back or limbs.
Back pain and muscle knots
Lower back, mid back and neck tension: working out what causes it, treated alongside exercises for home.
Recovery from sprains and fractures
A gradual return to movement after a sprain, a fracture or a spell of immobilisation.
Sports physiotherapy
Overload, recovery after competing, and getting ready to train again without falling into the same injury.
Manual lymphatic drainage
A gentle, structured session for heavy legs, swelling and the feeling of fluid retention.
Electrotherapy
Currents applied as support for hands-on treatment, always after the assessment and never as a treatment on its own.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a referral or a medical report to come?
No. Physiotherapy is a direct-access healthcare profession. That said, if you have reports, X-rays or scans, do bring them, because they sharpen the assessment considerably.
How many sessions will I need?
There is no way to know before examining you, and it is worth being wary of anyone who gives you a number over the phone. After the first assessment we give you an estimate and review it session by session.
Does the session hurt?
Some techniques on a knotted muscle are uncomfortable while they are being applied. We always work within what you can tolerate: if something hurts more than it should, say so and we change it.
One important note
The information on this page is for guidance only and does not replace an in-person assessment. Everyone responds differently, and a treatment plan is only decided after examining you. If you already have a medical diagnosis or are undergoing treatment, please bring it to your first appointment.
