What is Physiotherapy? (part two)

What is Physiotherapy and Why is it Important?


Physiotherapy aims to restore, maintain, and enhance physical function and quality of life. It involves a range of treatments designed to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and/or support recovery from injuries or surgeries. Our approach at the clinic is rooted in evidence-based practice, ensuring that each patient receives personalised care tailored to their unique needs.

Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, recovering from an injury, or looking to prevent future issues, physiotherapy can offer significant benefits. Our specialist works closely with you to develop a comprehensive treatment plan, which may include exercises, manual therapy, and lifestyle adjustments.


Specialising in Foot Care


At our Worthing clinic, we have a particular focus on foot care, recognising its crucial role in overall health. The feet are the foundation of the body, and problems in this area can lead to a cascade of issues affecting the knees, hips, and even the spine. That's why our physiotherapist, a lower-limb biomechanics specialist, dedicates a significant portion of his practice to addressing foot-related concerns.


Our specialist's expertise in lower-limb biomechanics allows him to understand how the structure and function of your feet impact your entire body. This specialised knowledge helps him diagnose and treat conditions more effectively, leading to better outcomes for our patients.


The Role of Biomechanics and Custom Orthotic Insoles


In the context of foot care, biomechanics focuses on how the feet, ankles, and lower limbs interact with each other and the ground. Our physiotherapist uses this understanding to

identify any irregularities in gait or posture that could be contributing to discomfort or injury.


One of the key tools in our biomechanical approach is the use of state-of-the-art Sidas technology to create custom-made orthotic insoles. Orthotics are devices placed inside your shoes to provide additional support, improve alignment, and alleviate pain.

Here's how our process works:


  1. Assessment: The process starts with a detailed assessment of your foot structure and movement patterns. This helps to identify any misalignments or functional issues.

  2. Custom-Made Insoles: Based on the assessment, we design and create custom orthotic insoles right at our clinic, using state-of-the-art Sidas technology.. These insoles are crafted to support your unique foot structure.
