"Physiotherapy? I doubt it"

I have attended the clinic twice in the past.

Both times I thought it was a waste of time. The young physiotherapists hired by the NHS, don’t help patients to improve their movements. They will not use manual therapy -massage- or electrotherapy.

They will evaluate your condition, give you exercises to do and send you home.

I find the whole experience rather useless.

I had received physiotherapy treatments in the past but always with physios that got physically involved with me with movement and exercise.

I think what happens in the clinic is a disgrace because you don’t get a treatment through physical methods which is what physiotherapy is all about.

I have been referred today again and most certainly, I will ask to be sent somewhere else.
