Extended scope physiotherapy
Joint injections in Stafford, without waiting for a GP
Our extended scope physiotherapists are qualified at master's level to prescribe and to give steroid and hyaluronic acid injections. We believe injections should support recovery, not replace good rehabilitation, so they are only offered after a full assessment and where the evidence supports them.
- • Persistent joint pain that hasn't settled with physio alone
- • Osteoarthritis pain and stiffness
- • Inflammatory flare-ups limiting movement
