Physiotherapy - Could it help you?

Nuffield Health's physiotherapy team in Taunton take your health and and wellbeing very seriously. No matter what your lifestyle, age or goals, we are dedicated to helping you get back to your physical best, whilst providing education and lifestyle advice.

Being located within a hospital means our physiotherapists have close links with expert consultants and treat a lot of patients who have undergone orthopaedic surgery with us, like knee and hip replacements. A patient's aftercare is included in the 'one-off' fee, meaning you can take advantage of our on-site expertise to encourage a full and thorough recovery.

We also see patients just wanting independent treatment, whether you have private medical insurance or are choosing to 'self-pay'. If you are suffering pain and discomfort physiotherapy treatment could help.

Book your initial 45-minute appointment online today and take the first step to a healthier, happier you.
