At The Clementine Churchill Hospital in Harrow, we offer the following private physiotherapy services:
Acupuncture physiotherapy - This can be used on its own or in combination with physiotherapy to help treat a range of musculoskeletal conditions.
Bracing - You may benefit from bracing if you have been suffering from painful joints, stability issues or ongoing pain. Braces can also help with rehabilitation and returning to sport.
Chronic pain management - If you have had persistent or longstanding pain that has failed to respond to previous treatments, our physiotherapists could help you.
Gait analysis - Gait analysis is the assessment of the lower limb biomechanics (i.e. how you stand, walk and run) to help identify problems in your legs, hips or even your back. It can help prevent painful conditions developing or reoccurring.
Hand therapy - Hand therapy provides assessment and holistic rehabilitation for patients with a hand or upper limb injury or condition.
Nerve conduction studies - Nerve conduction studies are used to test the electrical activity through the nerves in the arms and legs. This test is most commonly used to diagnosis carpal tunnel syndrome in the hand.
Occupational therapy - This can help you deal with everyday tasks that you may find difficult following illness, surgery or because of a disability.
Pelvic health rehabilitation - Our pelvic health physiotherapists are specially trained to assess and treat a range of conditions that can cause pelvic problems, such as incontinence of the bladder or bowel, or pelvic pain.
Physiotherapy for cancer treatments - We offer individual assessments and treatment for a wide range of musculoskeletal problems that can occur as a result of your cancer treatment, such as shoulder pain and stiffness after breast surgery, or lower back pain as a result of being less active.
Physiotherapy for sports injuries - We can help with muscle, joint and nerve problems caused by practicing a sport or exercising, including muscle imbalances, joint pain and post-fracture rehabilitation.
Pilates - A form of exercise that may improve balance, strength, posture, flexibility and circulation. It focuses on strengthening the core abdominal and back muscles.
Rehabilitation service - Aims to improve function after surgery or injuries including fractures, accidents, chronic spinal conditions, strokes, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, cranial surgery and cardiac surgery.
Respiratory physiotherapy - Relates to the assessment and treatment of people with disorders of the respiratory system. Physiotherapy is focused on maximising physical function and helping you manage symptoms.
Vestibular rehabilitation - This treatment consists of exercises designed to retrain the balance system and to re-programme your brain to tune out the dizzy sensations.
Our physiotherapy department has twelve private treatment rooms as well as a purpose-built gym.
Exercise is an important part of physiotherapy. We’ll show you how to use our physio-gym equipment to increase mobility, muscle strength and general fitness as well as building your core stability.
We offer personal training and customised rehabilitation. We also offer GaitScan, which is an assessment of the way you stand, walk or run to determine if your gait has an impact on any aches and pains you are experiencing.
Our private physiotherapy team works closely with colleagues across the hospital so that, if necessary, you can benefit from fast referrals and access to our imaging facilities for any tests or scans you may need. We provide onsite access to diagnostic imaging services that can include ultrasound, X-ray, MRI and CT scans.
Services include personal training, customised rehabilitation and Gaitscan which is an assessment of the way you walk/run to determine if it has an impact on aches and pains in the rest of your body.
If we cannot help you with physiotherapy, we can quickly refer you to one of our consultant specialists who can discuss alternative options for treatment.
Our private physiotherapy service is staffed by a dedicated team with diverse specialities, meaning we’re equipped to diagnose, treat and manage a wide range of conditions.
