Physiotherapy

St John’s Hospice has a specialist palliative care physiotherapy service, for the benefit of In-patients, Day Therapy patients and clinic out-patients.

We are:
Elaine Gisbourne, Senior Physiotherapist
Linda Churton, Technical Instructor
Jacqui Dixon, Senior Physiotherapist

We assess each patient, and design treatment programmes according to the individuals’ needs. We address issues such as muscle weakness, joint stiffness, reduced mobility, breathlessness, cancer-related fatigue, and pain management. We can provide some mobility aids, and make referrals for wheelchairs.

We would love to hear from you if you have any questions or comments.
