Treatment for back and neck pain in Kinross

The human spine is designed to move, to lift and carry and to last a lifetime. Modern lifestyles place a significant strain on the spine, because we spend a lot of time in positions that cause harm and pain. A significant proportion of spinal pain results from our sedentary lifestyle; driving, sitting at work or at home, using a computer, and not moving around as previous generations did. The pattern of relapsing spinal pain can be reduced significantly by carefully analysing the cause of the problem. Therapy will involve a mixture of spinal manipulation, pain relieving techniques, education and advice on exercise and posture. Contact my clinic in Kinross to arrange an appointment.

"I originally arranged an appointment from the website because a previous physio was overbooked and I needed some prompt attention. I didn't know what to expect, but I had shoulder difficulties with nerve pain radiating down my arm. I was able to give a lengthy, unhurried history by phone, saw Rob twice - when he unscrambled the issues and taught me appropriate self-help - that's the kind of physio I prefer! By the third visit, when I could also report a return to my physical activity classes post-lockdown, it was clear the problem had been resolved and I also now know how to cope should it return. I would be happy to seek Rob's help again if necessary."

"Best physio I’ve been to and I’ve seen a lot of different ones over the years. Was recommended to go and see Rob by a friend and I’d highly recommend him too. Friendly approach, thorough assessment of aches and pains as well as provision of a written report with YouTube links to exercises, which was particularly handy when trying to remember exactly what to do."

"The therapist gave me appropriate advice following my calf tear which was followed up by treatment and a recovery plan. I was very satisfied."
