Case Study:

John, Ashton-Under-Lyne Physiotherapy

John is a runner from Ashton-Under-Lyne who got back to full fitness with the help of the physiotherapy team at Davenport House Clinic.

John is a recreational runner, but he had always taken his running quite seriously. He belonged to a running group, and spent his Sunday mornings running the trails in Ashton-Under-Lyne until injury struck. What started as a niggle eventually became a pain in his achilles that stopped him from running.

John came to see one of our experienced physiotherapists for an assessment. At first John was unsure if physiotherapy would help him, he was unsure of what they could actually do. The first session involved a thorough assessment and fact finding session, so that the physiotherapist knew exactly what lead to the injury and what John’s goals for the future were.

In a few weeks John was back running the trails of Ashton Under Lyne, the injury sorted, and John had a whole load of information and advice for reducing the likelihood of further injuries.

John’s story is typical of people who seek out physiotherapy. Often people are unsure if it is for them, or exactly what will happen in a session. Physiotherapists at Davenport House Clinic will always take the time to get to know about your injury, your history and your goals for the future, whether you are a runner, busy parent, retired gardener or anything inbetween.

Physiotherapists can use hands on therapy, electrotherapy, acupuncture, exercise prescription and many other modalities of treatment. You can be assured that at Davenport House Clinic your treatment will fit your injury, your lifestyle and your goals.
