Hand and Upper Limb Physiotherapy

Your hands are vital for almost everything you do - from dressing, cooking, and typing to sport and work. When pain, stiffness, or injury limit your ability to move or grip, it can make even simple daily tasks feel difficult.

At Physio Plus, our specialist hand physiotherapist Julie Phillips provides expert assessment and tailored rehabilitation to help you regain movement, strength, and confidence in your hands, wrists, and elbows.

We look beyond your symptoms to understand what matters most to you - whether that’s returning to work, sport, or just getting back to everyday life without pain.
