Services
Physiotherapy helps restore movement and function when someone is affected by injury, illness or disability. We will help to improve mobility in affected joints and muscles as well as helping to relieve pain and discomfort. Physiotherapy can also improve sporting performance, and help to prevent future injuries, stress and strain, and therefore the need for lengthy rehabilitation.
Pilates is a method of exercise that consists of low-impact flexibility, strengthening and endurance exercises that particularly focus on core strength and helps to improve general fitness and wellbeing. Pilates has something to offer people of all ages and levels of ability and fitness, from beginners to elite athletes.
The vestibular system sits within your ear. There are several ways in which this can become dysfunctional and cause dizziness and balance problems however this can often be helped with specialist physiotherapy which we provide at West Kirby Physiotherapy. Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is characterised typically by intermittent vertigo triggered by particular movements.
Acupuncture is a treatment derived from ancient Chinese medicine. Fine needles are inserted at certain sites in the body for therapeutic or preventative purposes. This results in the body producing natural substances, such as pain-relieving endorphins. It's likely that these naturally released substances are responsible for the beneficial effects experienced with acupuncture.
Although therapeutic massage is often relaxing, the main of is not relaxation. Therapeutic massage works on the body's deeper soft tissue structures by softening, lengthening and stretching them to ease and increase the range of movement. It encourages relaxation and increases the production of endorphins - the body's natural mood elevators and painkillers.

After the first visit with Cat I felt confident in her diagnosis. Videoing me on treadmill to help identify the root cause of my problem and giving me specific exercises to strengthen weaknesses. Her hands on approach really helped release some muscles that overtime had been so tight they where causing a lot of pain. Massive relief to finally feel pain free. Thank you!

I have been having problems with my feet since 2016. Decided to try a private physio to see if they could help. After my assessment with Cat, she contacted my GP and arranged for an x-ray and blood tests. It turns out I have gout and tendon problems. Cat has given me exercises to help with the tendon problems and the GP is helping with the gout.
Cat was a great help and everyone there is very friendly. Highly recommended.

Sent my son to West Kirby Physiotherapy after a year of him suffering pain in his legs after doing sports. He was diagnosed within 10 mins of his consultation and the physiotherapist was amazing, making him feel comfortable and at ease. We were given a personal physiotherapy program to follow, with lots of advice and a follow up appointment. Since following the program, there has been a significant improvement in my son's mobility and the pain has almost completely vanished.

Following shoulder surgery, I attended West Kirby Physiotherapy. I found them to be extremely friendly, professional and knowledgeable. They were able to pinpoint my issues quickly and suggest various strategies to deal with them. I would like to thank the team for their help and will certainly use them again!
