Evidence-Based Patient Musculoskeletal Resources

The curated links are self-help ("DIY") exercise printable resources that GPs I work with commonly use with their patients who sustain physical injuries before they refer their patients for physio treatment at Acland Street Physiotherapy. It is important to note that you have unlikely been thoroughly assessed and diagnosed by a physiotherapist. The curated exercises below are obviously not personalised exercises however they can be a useful starting point for you to try before you consider making a booking in with us.
