While it is well-known that physiotherapists treat injuries, increasing numbers of people are also turning to Physiotherapy because they want to take control of their health and stay well.
Physiotherapy extends from health promotion to injury prevention, acute care, rehabilitation, maintenance of functional mobility, chronic disease management, patient and caregiver education and occupational health.
Everyone can benefit from Physiotherapy whether you are living with a chronic illness, recovering from an injury, or preparing for childbirth.
Physiotherapists always seek to minimise pain and discomfort, even if it is chronic or long-term. They work within your pain threshold to help you heal, and restore movement and function.
Your therapist may utilise modalities such as clinical massage, shockwave therapy, dry needling, and electrical stimulation during your treatment.
These modalities may cause zero or slight discomfort depending on the severity of your impairments.
It is therefore important that you communicate the intensity, frequency, and duration of pain to your therapist so that he/she can adjust your treatment plan if required.
All of our therapists go through a strict screening process and are recognised by the Allied Health Professions Council of Singapore.
We have a multi-disciplinary team with specialists who are experts in their own fields. Their strong expertise allows for internal referrals and collaborations to provide a holistic care that best meets your needs.
Our international team is also capable of providing consultations in 7 different languages: English, Mandarin, German, Dutch, French, Bahasa Indonesia and Malay.
Call us today and our friendly secretariat team will help to match the best therapist for your specific needs.
We are always happy to work with an extended medical network but a doctor’s referral is not necessary as Physiotherapy can be your first option.

Self-referral can help you to eliminate costs and time when you get direct access to the right care for your condition.
