Arthritis

Arthritis affects millions of people in the UK yet many are told there is little to be done beyond pain relief and waiting for a joint replacement. At Mayfair Health, we challenge that approach entirely. With the right physiotherapy and management strategy, arthritis symptoms can be significantly reduced, joint function can be improved, and quality of life can be meaningfully restored.

Arthritis

Arthritis is an umbrella term for conditions that cause joint inflammation, pain, and stiffness. The most common form is osteoarthritis, a degenerative condition in which the cartilage within a joint gradually breaks down, most commonly affecting the knees, hips, hands, and spine. Inflammatory arthritis, including rheumatoid arthritis, involves the immune system attacking joint tissue and can affect multiple joints simultaneously.

Symptoms typically include joint pain, stiffness particularly after rest, swelling, reduced range of movement, and in advanced cases, joint deformity. Arthritis can significantly limit mobility, independence, and quality of life but the degree to which it does is strongly influenced by how it is managed.

Physiotherapy is one of the most evidence based and effective interventions for arthritis management. Our clinicians design individualised programmes that combine joint mobilisation, targeted strengthening, movement re-education, and pain management strategies, all calibrated to your specific joints, severity, and lifestyle.

We work to reduce pain, improve strength and stability around affected joints, optimise movement patterns to reduce loading, and equip you with the self management strategies to maintain your progress long term. For patients considering or awaiting joint replacement surgery, we also provide pre-operative conditioning and comprehensive post surgical rehabilitation.

We recommend starting with a thorough 60 minute assessment examining joint function, strength, movement, and the impact of your condition on daily life. You will leave with a clear, honest picture of your arthritis and a practical, progressive plan to manage it effectively.

We regularly see patients who have been told to simply live with their arthritis. In our experience, that is rarely the only option.

No GP referral required. Available across all clinics.

Back & Neck Pain

Back and neck pain are among the most common reasons people seek healthcare, yet they are also among the most undertreated. Many people normalise their pain, manage around it, or accept ineffective treatment without ever getting to the root cause. At Mayfair Health, we take a different approach.

Sports Injuries

Whether you are a professional athlete, a dedicated amateur, or someone who simply loves staying active, a sports injury can be physically limiting and deeply frustrating. At Mayfair Health, we understand what is at stake when injury keeps you away from what you love, and we have the clinical expertise to get you back stronger than before.

Pelvic Floor Pain

Pelvic floor pain is more common than many people realise and far more treatable than most are ever told. Whether you have been living with symptoms for months or years, or have only recently begun to notice something is not right, expert help is available. At Mayfair Health, our women’s health specialist provides sensitive, evidence based care in a completely private and supportive environment.

Sciatica

Sciatica can be one of the most debilitating pain conditions a person experiences yet with accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment, the majority of cases respond extremely well to conservative management. At Mayfair Health, our specialist team has extensive experience treating sciatica at every stage and severity, helping patients understand their condition and recover with confidence.

Hip Pain

Hip pain is a condition that affects people of all ages, from young athletes with impingement issues to older adults managing osteoarthritis or bursitis. Whatever is driving your hip pain, it has a significant impact on how you move, how you sleep, and how you live. At Mayfair Health, our specialist clinicians have the expertise to identify the precise source of your symptoms and deliver targeted, effective treatment.

Knee Pain

Knee pain affects people at every stage of life, from footballers and runners managing ligament or meniscal injuries to older adults living with osteoarthritis or recovering from joint replacement. Whatever is driving your knee pain, it can quickly limit how you walk, train, and go about daily life. At Mayfair Health, our specialist clinicians have the expertise to identify the precise source of your symptoms and deliver targeted, effective treatment.

Shoulder Pain

The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body and that mobility comes at a cost. It is one of the most commonly injured and most complex joints to treat effectively. At Mayfair Health, our clinicians combine thorough assessment with targeted, evidence based treatment to resolve shoulder pain and restore full, confident movement.

Achilles Tendinopathy

Achilles tendinopathy is one of the most common and most frustrating overuse injuries affecting runners, athletes, and active individuals. It has a reputation for being slow to resolve, but with the right diagnosis, the right loading programme, and the right clinical guidance, excellent outcomes are consistently achievable. At Mayfair Health, we have the expertise to get your Achilles back to full strength.
