Physiotherapy

The Hospital has an experienced team of Senior Physiotherapists who work in modern, safe, fully equipped facilities.

Physiotherapy is used extensively to relieve pain and optimise function, and to ensure the safe return to home life, work, sport and leisure activities. Conditions and illnesses which physiotherapy can help to treat include pre and post operative rehab, arthritis, fibromyalgia sports and soft tissue injuries and back and neck pain.

Inpatients and outpatients undergo an initial consultation which involves a full assessment before an appropriate rehabilitation treatment programme is established.

Hydrotherapy

King Edward VII's Hospital Sister Agnes is one of only three hospitals in London to own a dedicated hydrotherapy pool. The pool is heated to 35 degrees Celsius, providing a warm and buoyant environment in which to exercise. Flotation equipment is also used to enhance and progress a treatment programme. One to one or group sessions in the pool are available with a fully qualified physiotherapist, who will provide individual feedback on exercise programmes.

Therapy at Home

Appointments can be made for Physiotherapy or Occupational Therapy to visit you in your home environment, either as a follow-up from your care in Hospital or if you have difficulty getting to outpatient facilities. Please contact the Physiotherapy Department for more information.
