    FINDING ALTERNATE WAYS TO HELP DURING COVID 19 PANDEMIC

    RECENTLY, I FOUND MYSELF IN A SITUATION WHERE I WAS FORCED TO CLOSE BRAMHALL PHYSIO DUE TO COVID 19 BUT UNABLE TO RETURN TO THE NHS TO HELP MY COLLEAGUES, DUE TO MY OWN RECENT HEALTH ISSUES.

    I FELT HELPLESS AND NEEDED TO FIND SOMETHING TO DO, TO FEEL AS THOUGH I WAS MAKING A DIFFERENCE, HOWEVER SMALL.

    A PATIENT OF MINE ASKED ME IF I WOULD HELP MAKE ITEMS FOR THE NHS FRONT LINE WORKERS, CAREHOME WORKERS AND HOSPICE STAFF, SO I  FOUND AN ALTERNATE USE FOR THE TREATMENT ROOM AND TURNED IT INTO A SEWING ROOM AND SET ABOUT MAKING SCRUBS, HEADBANDS AND SCRUB WASHBAGS. 

    SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE FOUND WAYS TO UNITE AND SUPPORT OUR AMAZING FRONTLINE WORKERS WHO ARE OUT THERE EVERYDAY PUTTING THEMSELVES AT RISK TO HELP OTHERS AND AS A NATION WE WILL ALWAYS BE INDEBTED TO THEM. THANK YOU ALL.

    WHILE WE WAIT FOR PERMISSION FROM THE GOVERNMENT TO REOPEN FOR FACE TO FACE APPOINTMENTS, I WILL BE WRITING BLOGS TO HELP WITH COMMONLY OCCURRING MUSCULOSKELETAL ISSUES, WHICH I HOPE YOU WILL FIND USEFUL. IF THERE IS ANYTHING SPECIFIC YOU WOULD BE INTERESTED IN READING ABOUT PLEASE EMAIL ME AT Bramhallphysio@outlook.com OR THROUGH THE APPOINTMENT BOOKING PAGE.

    AS SOON AS I AM ABLE, THE CLINIC WILL BE RETURNED TO NORMAL READY TO WELCOME MY PATIENTS BACK.

Introducing Injection Therapy at Bramhall Physio


We are delighted to welcome Joanna Gardiner MCSP SRP as a member of our team at Bramhall Physio.

Jo Gardiner qualified in Physiotherapy in 1986, she specialised in musculoskeletal problems from 1990 and in 1995 became one of the first Extended Scope Practitioners in the U.K. Since then she has worked in Orthopaedic Clinics and Injection clinics within the NHS. As part of her Masters she qualified, in Orthopaedic medicine, Injection Therapy, image Interpretation and supplementary prescribing, amongst many others. She has presented at Physiotherapy National Congress. Recently she qualified as an Independent Prescriber at Cumbria University. This allows her to prescribe and administer injections whenever they are needed with no delays in requesting prescriptions from GPs. 


There are many conditions that can be helped by corticosteroid injections (CSI), please see our injections therapy page. Jo can also administer Hyaluronic acid injections, usually using Ostenil Plus. Hyaluronic acid is a product that is naturally found in your body’s joints and synovial fluid but as we grow older or injure our joints it becomes harder for the body to replenish it. So these injections can be our own ‘WD40’! 


 If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact the clinic or Jo on 07748 137942 or email: injectionclinics@gmail.com
