Complete Physio

Performance starts with precision.

At our Bury St clinic, we use force plates, dynamometry, and advanced running analysis to assess strength, movement, and biomechanics in detail.

Whether you’re returning from injury or chasing a new PB, testing helps us build a smarter plan for your goals.

Base of thumb osteoarthritis is one of the most common causes of hand pain - especially when gripping, pinching or opening jars 👍

The joint at the base of the thumb (the CMC joint) works hard every day, allowing a huge range of movement. Over time, the cartilage can wear down, leading to pain, stiffness and weakness.

Common symptoms include:
▫️ Pain at the base of the thumb
▫️ Difficulty gripping or pinching
▫️ Weakness opening jars or turning keys
▫️ Swelling or tenderness
▫️ A grinding or clicking sensation

Understanding the anatomy is the first step in understanding why these symptoms develop — and what treatment options may help.

Hyaluronic acid injections can help reduce pain, improve movement and support joint function in people with osteoarthritis 🦵✨ Often used for knees, but also suitable for other joints, these injections work by improving lubrication and cushioning within the joint — helping you stay active for longer. At Complete Injections, all procedures are ultrasound-guided for accuracy, safety and comfort. If osteoarthritis is slowing you down, there may be options beyond painkillers and surgery.

We measure.

Force plates show us what the eye can't see:

→ Left vs right force production
→ Landing asymmetries
→ Ground reaction patterns

Our team just spent a full CPD day sharpening up on them.

Because "you're fine" isn't good enough when you're coming back from injury — or chasing a PB.

Every performance and sports injury assessment at Complete Physio now includes force plate testing.
