MSK Physiotherapy

MSK Physiotherapy at our Private Physiotherapy Clinic in Taunton, Somerset

Musculoskeletal physiotherapy is the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of problems affecting muscles, joints, tendons and nerves. Every appointment is one-to-one with Ed Davis, an NHS Enhanced Practice Level MSK physiotherapist and First Contact Practitioner.

Expert musculoskeletal assessment and diagnosis in Taunton

Your first appointment is a full MSK assessment: a detailed history, a physical examination and clear clinical reasoning that explains what is driving your symptoms. You leave with a working diagnosis, a plan and an honest view of the likely timescale.

Ed screens for red flag pathology as standard and, where onward investigation, imaging or a GP referral is appropriate, he will say so directly rather than treating around it.

What an MSK assessment includes

History and symptom mapping, movement and strength testing, joint and neurological screening where indicated, an explanation of your diagnosis, and a written rehabilitation plan.

Treatment and rehabilitation

Hands-on treatment where it helps, graded exercise and loading, pacing and return-to-activity planning — progressed session by session against your goals.
