FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Physiotherapy Associates and Wellbeing Centre, Newtownabbey

Some questions people ask us…

  • What problems can physiotherapy help with?

    On a first visit to our physiotherapists, they will initially begin a full assessment and physical examination in order to determine the nature of your condition, as well as the cause. Following this, the impact of the condition will be continuously reviewed and regularly discussed by our team, together with the patient’s medical history to establish, in mutual agreement with the patient, which treatment is most suitable. A tailored treatment programme will then be compiled.

  • Why can we trust your practitioners?

    We are members of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy, the Accupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists, the Health & Care Professions Council, and Physio First. 


    We have a team of highly qualified physiotherapists to treat all musculoskeletal conditions and acupuncture, pilates, yoga and complementary therapy practitioners. 


    Our patients have been able to rely on us for a highly professional service since 1996.

  • How should I dress?

    It is advised that patients wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. Bear in mind that physiotherapists need to visually assess a patient regarding posture and movement, and will possibly need to move various areas of the body. These areas will need to be visible and assessable. When the treatments involve manipulation and massage the site of injury will need to be exposed.
