Physiotherapy can help you post ligament sprain or tear to regain range of movement and increase the strength of the muscles around the joint to help prevent any further injury.
At the Centre for Clinical Physiotherapy we offer a wide range of services, knowledge and expertise to effectively treat and manage ligament injuries. Treatments are delivered by highly skilled and experienced physiotherapists who are passionate about delivering a quality service and the best possible results for you.
