PHYSIOTHERAPY.

We have a team of highly qualified and experienced Physiotherapists at The Boxgrove Clinic, Chichester, who can help to alleviate your pain, restore movement and ultimately improve your injury or condition. Physiotherapists are experts in diagnosing and treating injuries and conditions by using a variety of techniques such as mobilisation, manipulation, massage and exercises to help muscles, soft tissue, joints and nerves all work to their full potential.

There are many reasons you may come to The Boxgrove to see one of our Physiotherapists; you may have an acute sports injury or a niggling pain that won’t go away, you may require pre or post surgical advice or rehabilitation, or you may want some help to begin exercising safely again after having had a baby or recovering from illness.

Whatever the reason, our experienced Physiotherapists will spend time discussing your concerns before fully assessing both the primary pain area and your overall movement patterns, so that they may understand the nature and cause of your pain or dysfunction. Our priority is to relieve you of your pain whilst restoring movement and improving your quality of life.

Once we have a working diagnosis we discuss treatment options with you, including time scales and number of treatments. At The Boxgrove, we pride ourselves at being hands-on and with the aim of restoring your mobility and reducing your pain, we use a variety of techniques such as massage, joint mobilisation and deeper soft tissue release. After treatment you will begin rehabilitation which may include specific exercises, advice on posture and helpful tips on best practice at work.

Our goal is to help you become more mobile and pain-free. Our Physiotherapists will help you to manage your symptoms and prevent recurrence through treatment and by teaching you exercises to do at home or in the gym if you prefer.

At The Boxgrove Clinic we are lucky to have a breadth of expertise under one roof. If we feel that you may benefit from another practice, for example, Acupuncture or Fascial Manipulation, then we will refer you accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to be referred to see a Physiotherapist?

No. You don’t have to be referred unless you’re using private medical insurance.

What should I expect from my first visit?

During your first visit to The Boxgrove, the Physiotherapist will give you an initial assessment. This will include discussing the relevant problem, the suggested treatment, and your expected outcome. The suggested treatment will take place during this initial assessment and you may do some work in our Pilates Reformer Studio if relevant to your needs. A tailored treatment plan will then be discussed together and suggested exercises or advice given.

What should I wear during treatment?

We recommend that you wear loose comfortable clothing. We may ask you to partially remove some clothing so that we can access the area to treat. We provide shorts should you need to change. All rooms are warm and blankets provided. We also use towels to maintain your privacy.

Can I bring a friend with me?

Of course, if you are nervous or worried about your initial appointment please do bring a friend or family member with you. If you’re under 16 years then an adult will need to be present during the consultation.

How many sessions will I need?

This will be dependent on the problem you are experiencing. Our Physiotherapist will be able to give you an estimate of how many sessions you may need, dependant on the problem and your expectations.

Will my Physiotherapist have the relevant qualifications?

All therapists at The Boxgrove are fully qualified, fully insured, and belong to the necessary governing bodies. Each one is hand-picked by us and is a specialist in their field of expertise.

Is The Boxgrove easy to find and is there parking?

Directions to The Boxgrove and a map can be found here. Parking is available to all of our patients. We kindly ask all those coming for a scheduled class to park in the Boxgrove Village Hall car park.
