It is often said that prevention is better than a cure.

Once we've treated you and you are feeling good again, we have strategies to prevent your suffering from a relapse of your original pain. These strategies are known as rehabilitation.

Rehabilitation involves teaching you specific exercises which might focus on flexibility, coordination, balance, movement patterns, strength, endurance, and matching up of how your brain, nerves, muscles and body work together.

This is very in-depth and specialised.

At Wigan Family Clinic, we have a number of pieces of specialised rehabilitation equipment, normally only found at professional sports clubs, but we find them very effective in treating most people because they enhance and accelerate the rehabilitation process greatly.
