Unique treatments

At Leap Healthcare, we use an exercise-oriented, active rehabilitation approach at every phase of your treatments, beginning with the first phase, the treatment and active recovery phase.

Phase 1

Get better and stronger

In the Treatment and Active Recovery phase, we focus on relieving pain, and restoring function to your body. You’ll feel better, as your body recovers.

Although traditional physiotherapy stops here, we have another two phases to ensure that you develop strength and motor patterns which minimise your risks of further injury.

Phase 2

Grow stronger for life: restore strength, and prevent injury

In the Corrective Strength and Conditioning phase, you’ll develop full healing, as well as additional strength and correct motor patterns to avoid reinjury. Although phase three is optional, it further develops your strength so that you can live a full, active life, and can achieve your goals.

Phase 3

Programmed exercise to improve your strength and performance

In this phase, you’ll develop optimal strength, with physiotherapy-led strength and performance exercises in our modern facility. Extend your range of movement, improve and optimise performance, strength and power, with a customised, physio-led programme.

Specific physiotherapy treatments for sudden or on-going injuries from work or sport

If your work is causing an injury, we help to treat chronic injuries, such as tendonitis, and sudden injuries too.

A personal treatment plan, designed for you, for rapid pain relief and improvement

In your initial assessment, we use technology, so we can get the data and numbers to develop a plan that’s customised to you.
