Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy uses exercise and movement to speed up your recovery and help you regain full function whilst you are in hospital. This includes breathing exercises, exercises to gain strength in your limbs, assistance to walk, and advice on activity levels when you go home.

The Physiotherapy Team can assist with a wide range of medical conditions including recovery from surgery, chronic heart and lung conditions, and rehabilitation after heart attack.
