Physiotherapy services
Optimus Physio provides personalised musculoskeletal, sports and women’s health physiotherapy in Hackney, combining hands-on treatment, progressive rehabilitation and practical exercise around your body and your goals.
Musculoskeletal physiotherapy
Treatment for pain, injury, surgery recovery and movement problems can combine hands-on treatment, movement assessment, exercise prescription and progressive rehabilitation.
The aim is not only to reduce symptoms, but to rebuild strength, mobility and confidence for the activities that matter to you.
Women’s health physiotherapy
Support for staying active through pregnancy, rebuilding strength after birth, returning to running or the gym, and exercising with prolapse, incontinence or leaking.
Women’s health treatment combines physiotherapy assessment with practical, exercise-focused rehabilitation built around your symptoms and goals.
Reduce pain
Hands-on treatment, movement assessment and practical pain management to help reduce symptoms and restore confidence.
Rebuild capacity
Progressive exercise and rehabilitation plans that build strength, mobility and tolerance rather than only treating the painful area.
Return to activity
Support for returning to work, sport, running, gym training, postnatal exercise and everyday activity with fewer limitations.
What I treat
Treatment may include manual therapy, massage, exercise prescription and progressive rehabilitation, depending on your assessment and goals.
Pain and injury
Back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek physiotherapy, and one of the most misunderstood. Whether it’s a sudden flare-up, a long-standing ache, or pain that’s started affecting your sleep or daily routine, the goal is the same: understand what’s driving it, settle the symptoms, and build the strength to keep it from coming back. Most back pain responds well to the right combination of hands-on treatment and progressive exercise.
Pain and injury
Neck and shoulder problems can range from stiffness after a poor night’s sleep to persistent pain that limits how you work, train or move. Headaches, restricted movement and referred pain down the arm are also common. Physiotherapy looks at the whole picture, including posture, movement patterns, strength and load, and builds a plan that addresses the cause rather than just the discomfort.
Pain and injury
Hip, knee and ankle problems, including osteoarthritis, can limit how you move, train and get through the day. Assessment looks at the joint itself as well as how you move and load it, and treatment combines hands-on care with progressive exercise to restore strength, mobility and confidence.
Sport and training
From a twisted ankle to a more complex injury that’s keeping you off the pitch, the aim is always to get you back to training safely: not just recovered, but stronger and more resilient than before. Rehab is structured and progressive, built around what you actually do and the level you want to return to. That means no generic protocols, and no rushing a return that isn’t ready.
Pain and injury
The shoulder is one of the most complex joints in the body, and when it’s not working well, it affects more than you’d think. Reaching overhead, sleeping comfortably, lifting, throwing, pressing, even carrying a bag can become something you dread.
Whether you’re dealing with a rotator cuff problem, acute injury, frozen shoulder, or pain following a dislocation or surgery, physiotherapy can help you understand what’s going on and build a clear path back to full function. Treatment focuses on restoring movement, rebuilding strength around the joint, and getting you back to the things that matter, without having to constantly work around it.
Women’s health
Physiotherapy can help you stay active as your body changes during pregnancy and build strength and confidence after birth.
Sangita also provides structured support for postnatal return to running, gym-based exercise, strength training and other activities, with rehabilitation tailored to your recovery, symptoms and goals.
Women’s health & pelvic health
Prolapse symptoms or leaking during running, lifting and other exercise do not automatically mean giving up the activities you enjoy.
Assessment and rehabilitation can include pelvic floor exercise coaching, load management, breathing and technique, with practical progression towards exercise and training with greater confidence.
