Physiotherapy

Our Physiotherapists are responsible for assessment, diagnosis and management of musculoskeletal (muscle, joint, tendon etc) conditions and impairments, ensuring you have full functional mobility and knowledge in how to best manage your body.

This can include standard hands-on manual therapy, dry needling acupuncture, exercise-based rehabilitation, Clinical Pilates, education regarding the cause of any mobility issues and treatment plans to build toward independent management.

Our Physiotherapists

Our Physiotherapists are also able to provide DEXA imaging in clinic to assess your Total Body Composition and Bone Mineral Density, with no GP referral required and results emailed directly to you.

The Physiotherapist will also be able to refer for diagnostic imaging where appropriate, and link with local personal trainers, gyms and health clubs to assist in independent fitness outside of WLC Medical.

DEXA Scan

A DEXA scan is a low-dose X-ray that provides detailed information about either your Bone Density, or Total Body Composition, in a quick, non-invasive scan.

What is the difference between a Bone Density Scan and a Total Body Composition Scan? 

  • A Bone Densitometry (Bone Density) Scan is a scan that measures the strength of your bones to help assess fracture risk and bone health.
  • A Total Body Composition Scan measures muscle mass, fat mass, and bone mass, to give a detailed picture of your overall body composition.

Our DEXA Scanner

To have a DEXA scan at WLC Medical you don’t need to have a GP referral. However, we do accept referrals completed by GPs addressed to either our clinic or other clinics, after which we are happy to provide results to your treating GP with your consent. Simply bring the referral with you at the time of the appointment.

 

Dietetics

Diet & Health Optimisation

Diet and health optimisation goes beyond food choices alone. Our Dietitians help you understand how nutrition, lifestyle, and physiology interact to shape your health, using clinical information to guide personalised strategies.

Decode what your body is actually telling you

We help interpret blood tests, symptoms, and health history in context, so results aren’t just “normal” or “abnormal”, but meaningful and actionable.

From confusion to clarity

If you’ve received mixed advice, tried “doing the right things”, or feel your body isn’t responding the way it should, we focus on identifying what’s really driving the pattern.

Our Dietitians

Targeted changes, not generic rules

Rather than rigid plans, we prioritise realistic, high-impact adjustments across food, movement, sleep, and daily habits, tailored to your physiology and lifestyle.

This approach supports informed decision-making and long-term health, working alongside your broader medical care.

Metabolism Testing

Here at WLC Medical, we offer advanced non-invasive metabolism testing as part of your dietitian appointment. This test provides immediate data about how your body uses energy, helping guide more precise and effective nutrition and lifestyle strategies.

Metabolic health plays a major role in how your body regulates weight, energy, blood sugar, and fat storage.

If you’ve struggled with:

  • Difficulty losing or maintaining weight
  • Low energy or fatigue
  • Insulin resistance, PCOS, or fatty liver
  • Feeling that your body isn’t responding to “doing the right things”

Metabolism testing can provide valuable insight into why.

The test takes around 5 minutes and involves sitting comfortably and breathing normally through a mouthpiece.

Please note that if you have chosen our DEXA Sports Package (Body Composition Scan and Metabolic Testing) with one of our dietitians, the dietetics consultation on the day is limited to discussing the results of your scan and ECAL test.

 

Psychology

The Psychologist is at the heart of addressing your “Why?” with regard to finding and treating the root cause of any behavioural patterns that lead to habits that may be detrimental to your health. The role of the Psychologist will benefit everyone, building the necessary skills and techniques to create meaningful and sustainable lifestyle changes.

Our Psychologists

The Psychologist can also assess and treat people across the spectrum of mental health disorders, including those with eating disorders and behaviours negatively affecting their food, fitness and overall health choices. With a known causal link between intake of antidepressants and weight gain, this can also be managed between the Psychologist and a person’s Psychiatrist to ensure maximal benefit to each person.
