First class service. Ultrasound was carried out to determine if there was any further damage to my knee joint other than the diagnosed torn meniscus flare up. Transpires I now have osteoarthritis too so I recieved a steroid injection in my knee which was painless and quick and has eased my pain immensely. All my queries were answered clearly and concisely and good advice given with regards to the correct exercise to do to strengthen my leg muscles and slow down further deterioration.

I recently suffered a shoulder injury and visited the Greengates branch for an in depth assessment of injury using Ultrasound. Daniel, the physiotherapist was very helpful and knowledgeable and promptly got to the source of the problem. We worked on some light physio/exercises and I left having booked a follow up phsiotherapy session. I then managed to obtain expediated access to an NHS phsiotherapist so proceeded to cancel my pre-paid session with Daniel and my payment was refunded to me within an hour of cancellation. I cannot recommend Light Joints Physiotherapy highly enough. Very professional and obviously, extensively experienced. Price for Ultrasound is very competitive and almost too cheap as the next best price in the region is at least double the cost. A very easy 5 stars..

I have been suffering neck and shoulder pain since March. In desperation I sought the advice of Light Joints Therapy in Bradford. Within two visits the pain has subsided and movement is so much easier. The service provided is excellent and I would have no hesitation in recommending this practice.

Had treatment from Emily and Amie for serious back and knee pain for months while training in the gym with real day to day life impacts , didn’t know how was going to resolve. Lovely girl, easy to talk to she understood the issue immediately, extremely knowledgable, isolated the pain straight away , found the cause of the issues (there were a few!) and made immediate impact. Can’t thank her enough will continue to use, highly recommend 10/10🙌

I sought out physio for lower back pain which was hurting on a daily basis. I had one session with Daniel Thompson and he diagnosed my issue and gave me excercises to do to resolve the root cause. Within two weeks my back pain had fully gone and I feel back to my normal self. Would recommend to anyone it was well worth it and Daniel is friendly and very knowledgable.

How Our Process Works

Assess

We’ll discuss your symptoms, medical history and goals before completing a detailed musculoskeletal assessment.

Explain

We’ll explain our findings and discuss whether a steroid injection is appropriate.

Injection

If a steroid injection is clinically appropriate and you choose to proceed, it can be performed during the same appointment.

Rehab

We’ll provide aftercare and advice to help you make the most of any reduction in pain and progress with your recovery.

Corticosteroid Injections

The right treatment starts with the right assessment.

Corticosteroid injections can reduce pain and inflammation in some joint and tendon conditions, but they’re not right for everyone.

✓ Persistent joint or tendon pain
✓ Symptoms affecting daily life, work or sport
✓ Limited progress with physiotherapy
✓ Pain preventing rehabilitation

We do not inject the neck, lower back or spine.

Your safety comes first

We use careful assessment, appropriate technique and clear aftercare to minimise risks.

Possible side effects are usually temporary and may include soreness, bruising or a short-term increase in pain. We’ll explain the benefits, risks and alternatives before treatment.
