Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation

The Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation is designed for people recovering from injury, surgery, pain-related limitation or reduced mobility. The focus is to understand not only the diagnosis, but also the way symptoms are affecting comfort, movement, work, sleep and daily routines. Every patient is approached as an individual, with time taken to understand the history of the problem and the goals that matter most to them.

Care begins with a detailed clinical assessment

This may include a review of symptoms, previous treatment, examination findings and relevant investigations. Assessment looks at strength, flexibility, posture, balance, gait, pain, daily-function limitations and the physical demands of home, work or sport. The treating team then explains the clinical picture in clear language, so patients and families can take part in decisions with a realistic understanding of the available options.

A comprehensive rehabilitation service

The service covers spine rehabilitation, sports rehabilitation, postoperative recovery, exercise therapy, manual therapy, posture and ergonomic guidance, electrodiagnostic evaluation, gait and balance training. Recommendations are based on the nature and severity of the condition, overall health, activity level and response to earlier treatment. When more than one approach is possible, the benefits, limitations and expected recovery requirements of each option are discussed before a plan is finalised.

Working together for the best outcomes

Care is coordinated with the relevant clinical teams whenever this is helpful. This can include anaesthesia, imaging, medicine, neurology, physiotherapy, rehabilitation or other specialist support. Attention is given to preparation, pain control, safety, rehabilitation and the practical arrangements needed for a smooth recovery or return to normal activity.

Ongoing support on your journey

Follow-up remains an important part of the service. Progress is reviewed over time, treatment may be adjusted when needed and patients are guided on activity, exercise, precautions and warning signs. Progress is measured through function as well as symptoms, helping patients build confidence and return safely to the activities that are important to them. The aim is appropriate, responsible care that supports both immediate improvement and long-term function.
