The team of state registered physiotherapists offers physiotherapy services to adults registered with a South Sefton or Liverpool GP.
We aim to promote independence and improve quality of life for people with physical problems caused by accidents, ageing, disease or disability. These include respiratory conditions, orthopaedic and musculoskeletal conditions, mobility issues, neurological conditions and those receiving palliative care.
