Physiotherapy at Ten

Hello I'm Angela; Chief of Staff and Consultant Physiotherapist at Ten Health & Fitness. This video explains what makes physiotherapy at Ten different, and how we help people not only recover from pain and injury, but move, perform and live better for the long term. Many people think physiotherapy is simply about treating pain once it has appeared. At Ten, we see it differently. Our goal is not just to help you recover from an injury; but to understand why it happened; restore the way your body moves, and help prevent it from returning. One of the things we hear most often from our clients is, "Why has nobody ever explained this to me before?" Many people come to us frustrated, because they feel they are simply collecting injuries. Or they reach their thirties, forties or fifties; wondering why their body suddenly doesn't feel as capable as it once did. The reality is that our bodies need looking after just like anything else we rely on every day. Most of us wouldn't drive our car for ten years without servicing it, or taking it for an MOT; yet many people expect their body to keep performing without ever being taught how to care for it properly. At Ten, we believe knowledge is one of the most powerful treatments we can provide. We don't just help you recover from today's problem; we help you understand your body, recognise the early warning signs and know what to do before small issues become bigger ones. Our aim is to give you the right advice at the right time, so you can make informed decisions that benefit not only your recovery today but your health and movement for years to come. Every journey begins with listening. We take time to understand your symptoms; your lifestyle; your goals and what matters most to you. We combine this with a detailed physical assessment to understand not just where you hurt, but why your body is behaving the way it is. From there - we create a treatment plan that is completely tailored to you. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all programmes. Every recommendation we make is based on the latest evidence, our Clinical expertise and what is right for your body. Our physiotherapy follows three simple stages: Relieve, Rehabilitate and Reinforce. First, we reduce pain, restore movement and create the right foundations for recovery. Next, we rebuild your strength; movement; and confidence so your body can cope with the demands of everyday life. Finally, we help you maintain those improvements with long-term strategies that keep you moving well, and reduce the likelihood of future injury. Treatment may include: hands-on therapy; movement assessment; rehabilitation exercises; education; and a personalised home management plan, including video based exercise programming if appropriate. Just as importantly, we explain why we are doing what we are doing, so you understand your body, and feel confident managing it for the future. What makes Ten unique is our Circle of Care. Our physiotherapists work alongside massage therapists, Clinical Exercise Specialists, Dynamic Reformer Pilates instructors and personal trainers, sharing knowledge and working together to provide seamless care. Rather than separate appointments with different professionals, you benefit from one integrated team supporting your progress. Physiotherapy is not just for injuries. We also help people prepare for surgery, recover afterwards, return to sport, manage long-term conditions, improve performance and stay active as they get older. Whether your goal is completing your first marathon; playing with your children without pain; or simply moving more comfortably each day - we tailor your care around what matters most to you. We want to give you the knowledge; confidence; and support to take control of your health - so you rely less on treatment and more on a body that moves well; feels strong; and continues to support the life you want to live. Whatever has brought you to us, we're here to help. Please speak to our team, or book directly through our site, to find out how physiotherapy at Ten can support your journey.
