Expert therapists who get to the source of your problem to reduce pain and restore function What conditions can be helped with physiotherapy?

Katie Copeland’s Physiotherapy and Sports Injury Clinic situated in the heart of Chester City Centre was founded in 1987 and by virtue of its continued excellent reputation has grown from a ‘one man band` to the present day multidisciplinary practice including six experienced Chartered Physiotherapists and Sports Massage Therapist. Ideally situated for city centre workers as well as those travelling from surrounding areas, Katie’s practice continues to provide physiotherapy of the highest standard and enjoys good relationships with GPs, Consultant Orthopaedic Specialists and Sports and Health clubs. Katie is also particularly proud of the large number of self referral patients who come under the “word of mouth” heading which speaks for itself in terms of reputation. A physiotherapist is qualified to assess and physically examine patients which along with careful history taking can make a clinical diagnosis of a painful or stiff condition that is preventing normal movement and function. There are many conditions that can be helped by physiotherapy below are some of the more common ones:-

-Neck and Back Pain

-Sports Injuries (from the keen amateur to the elite sportsman)

-Sciatica

-Whiplash injuries

-Rehabilitation following fractures

-Work Related Symptoms

-Overuse/over training problems (tennis elbow, achilles tendonitis, shin splints)

-Gynaecological/obstetric (stress incontinence, exercises ante and post natal)

Disabled people have access to street parking outside the practice, however others may have to use car parking facilities in the surrounding area.

Dry needling is a modern treatment technique used by physiotherapists and healthcare professionals to relieve muscle pain and dysfunction. It involves inserting thin, sterile acupuncture needles into trigger points or tight bands of muscles to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and promote healing.

Unlike traditional acupuncture, which is rooted in Chinese medicine, dry needling is based on western medical principles and focuses on relieving musculoskeletal pain by targeting specific areas of muscle tension.

Dry needling works by addressing muscle knots or trigger points that contribute to pain and restricted movement. When the needle is inserted into a trigger point, it stimulates a response that helps release tension and improves blood circulation.

• Releasing Trigger Points: The needle causes a twitch response in the muscle, which helps it relax and reset, reducing pain and tightness.

• Increasing Blood Flow: The process encourages circulation to the treated area, promoting healing and reducing inflammation.

• Stimulating the Nervous System: It helps reduce nerve sensitivity, decreasing pain perception.

• Improving Mobility: By reducing muscle stiffness, dry needling can restore flexibility and movement.

It is a perfect compliment to your physiotherapy treatment and rehab to help reduce pain, enhance mobility, and speed up recovery from injuries.

Our therapists are trained in both dry needling and traditional acupuncture.
