Product Information

As a physiotherapist, you’ll focus on identifying and maximising movement to improve the health and wellbeing of your patients.

Understanding if your health-care professional applies evidence-based practice to their treatment will help you decide which therapist is right for you. The Chartered Society of Physiotherapy is here where you can find a list of local physiotherapists. Bäumler P, Zhang W, Stübinger T, et al. Acupuncture-related adverse events: systematic review and meta-analyses of prospective clinical studies. BMJ Open 2021; 11(9):e045961. doi: 10.1136/bmjopen-2020-045961 Research suggests these passive treatments should only be used as adjuncts to active treatments. This type of therapy may be appropriate in the early stages of your care, and let's face it, most people love a massage. Your standard working week will be around 37.5 hours and may include a mix of shifts, such as nights, early starts, evenings and weekends. As a physiotherapist, you’ll be paid on the Agenda for Change (AFC) pay system, typically starting on band 5.

Physiotherapy

A physiotherapist works with patients to develop customized programs designed to restore as much as possible their functional ability and movement. They are trained to help patients at all stages of life — from infant to old age — whose function and movement are impacted by:

The breadth of scientific evidence for exercise prescription as a treatment for muscle, ligament, tendon, bone and joint complaints far outweighs the limited scientific support for the prolonged use of "passive" treatments like massage, manipulation, and adjustments. You may need a referral from your GP to have physiotherapy on the NHS, although in some areas it's possible to refer yourself directly.

FOR LEARNING PROVIDERS

As a physiotherapist, you could specialise in a particular area such as sports injuries, critical care, or work with the elderly, children or cancer patients. Teaching, research and management roles are other options.

There are many different sub-disciplines within physiotherapy. For example, some specialise in treating problems that arise from neurological conditions, like multiple sclerosis or stroke. Some also focus on assisting patients with heart and lung conditions, for example emphysema or after lung infections like pneumonia (or COVID!). Illness: After a prolonged illness or during/after an illness that impacts mobility, balance, or motor skills. A myotherapist works to assist your aches and pains by focusing on the muscles and joints. They offer a range of mostly "hands-on" treatments including dry needling, massage and joint mobilisation, but can also prescribe exercises.If you haven’t had your sciatica diagnosed you should get confirmation from a health professional. There is hope! There is good evidence that occupational physiotherapy is cost-effective for large and small businesses.

There are other techniques that may sometimes be used, such as exercises carried out in water (hydrotherapy or aquatic therapy) or acupuncture. I’ve often heard stories of people saying their sciatica is worse after seeing a physiotherapist or my sciatica is worse after seeing a chiropractor etc. This is usually quite normal. The practitioner is likely to have moved muscles, joints and interacted with trapped nerves. Your body may need a little time to adjust. So don’t worry if you have more pain after seeing your therapist. This is totally natural and should ease after a day or two. If not give them a call. So should I see an osteopath or physio for my sciatic pain or not?

However, in the long term, it doesn't equip you with the skills required to manage your condition. It may even result in over-reliance on your health-care professional and cost you more in the long run.
