What We Treat

Common Problems We Treat for Belfast Patients

Desk-based office work, long commutes and busy weekends of sport all take their toll. The problems we see most often from Belfast include:

  1. Back Pain

    Back pain is our speciality. Whether it started with lifting, sitting too long at a desk or for no obvious reason at all, we will assess your spine thoroughly and build a plan that combines hands-on treatment with targeted exercise. Find out more about our back pain treatment.

  2. Neck and Shoulder Pain

    Hours at a laptop or on the phone can leave your neck stiff and your shoulders aching. We treat tension-type neck pain, frozen shoulder, rotator cuff problems and more. Read about our approach to neck and shoulder pain.

  3. Sports Injuries

    Belfast has a thriving rugby, running and GAA scene. Our Lead Physiotherapist, Chris Noble, works with RBAI and is Lead Physiotherapist for Instonians RFC, so he understands what it takes to return to sport safely. Learn more about sports injury physiotherapy.

  4. Knee Pain

    From runners training along the Lagan towpath to people struggling with stairs because of arthritis, we help you understand what is driving your knee pain and how to fix it.
