Joint Pain & Arthritis
Reduce stiffness, increase mobility, and stay active.

Reduce stiffness, improve mobility, and stay active at every stage of life
Joint pain can affect anyone from active young adults to older individuals managing arthritis. Whether caused by wear and tear, injury, autoimmune conditions, or poor movement mechanics, joint pain can interfere with your mobility, independence, and overall quality of life. At our Camp Hill physiotherapy and Pilates clinic, we provide personalised care that blends hands on therapy, targeted physical treatment, and gentle, functional movement to help you manage joint pain with confidence.
We don’t believe in “just putting up with it” or assuming that pain is a normal part of ageing. Instead, we help you move better, feel stronger, and protect your joints long term.
Manual Therapy: Easing Tension and Improving Comfort
Manual therapy is often the first step to reducing stiffness and discomfort in painful joints. Using specialised techniques such as soft tissue massage, joint mobilisation, and myofascial release, we help release tight muscles around affected areas (like knees, hips, shoulders, and spine), reduce swelling, and improve joint range of motion. These gentle techniques help relieve pressure on the joints and restore more fluid, pain-free movement, even in flare ups.
Physical Therapy: Supporting Joint Health from the Inside Out
Our physiotherapists assess your full body mechanics to understand how one joint may be compensating for another. We use joint specific mobilisation to restore proper movement patterns, and include dry needling or acupuncture if needed to release deeper restrictions or pain triggers. We may also use bracing or taping to support unstable or inflamed joints while healing. Each treatment is tailored to your type of arthritis or joint dysfunction, with a strong focus on education and long-term self management.
This proactive approach not only alleviates current symptoms but also protects your joints from further degeneration or overload.
Exercise Therapy: Movement That Builds Strength and Reduces Pain
Movement is medicine especially for arthritic or painful joints. Our clinical Pilates and functional exercise programs are designed to improve joint stability, rebuild strength in the supporting muscles, and correct faulty movement patterns that may be aggravating your pain. These low impact exercises are ideal for arthritic joints, offering strength and mobility benefits without placing unnecessary stress on inflamed or damaged tissue.
Over time, this tailored exercise therapy helps you move more freely, feel less restricted, and regain confidence in your body whether your goal is to walk pain free, return to recreational sport, or simply move with ease through daily life.
