How We Work as a Team
At Southampton Physio, we don’t treat labels – we treat people. Different therapies can be useful at different times, and often, the best results come from a combination of approaches.
Here’s how we ensure you get the right treatment:
We assess first, then guide you
Your first appointment includes a thorough assessment where we listen to your concerns, test your movement, and understand your goals. Then, we tailor your treatment accordingly.
Your therapist has a broad skill set
No matter who you see, they have expertise across multiple disciplines, ensuring you always receive the right mix of hands-on treatment, rehab exercises, and expert advice.
We work together
If another clinician’s approach would suit you better, we’ll refer you seamlessly within our team – so you get the best of everything, without starting over.
It’s all about results
We don’t follow rigid models or stick to one therapy because of job titles. Your treatment is based on what actually works for you.
An Overview of the Therapies We Use
Each of our therapists is trained in multiple areas, but here’s a breakdown of the key approaches we use:
Physiotherapy: Movement, Strength and Recovery
Physiotherapy focuses on how your body moves and functions, using exercise therapy, rehabilitation, and hands-on techniques to help you recover from injury, reduce pain, and prevent future issues.
Osteopathy: Whole-Body Treatment for Pain and Mobility
Osteopathy takes a holistic approach to pain, stiffness, and mobility issues, using manual therapy, mobilisation, and movement techniques to restore balance and function.
Clinical Personal Training: Strength Coaching with Clinical Insight
Our team offers clinical personal training for those needing expert support to build strength safely. We blend physiotherapy knowledge with personalised coaching to help you move better, train with confidence, and stay active long term.
Sports Therapy: Injury Rehab and Performance Support
Sports therapy blends injury rehabilitation, movement coaching, and strength work to help active people recover, stay injury-free, and perform at their best.
Sports Massage: Recovery and Muscle Tension Relief
Sports massage helps reduce tightness, improve circulation, and speed up recovery. Whether you’re an athlete or just feeling the effects of daily life, this can help you feel looser and more mobile.
