Advanced Clinical Support
Find your specialistAt Solent Specialist Physiotherapy, care is led by specialist assessment and clinical decision-making.
In some cases, recovery may be supported by services that are not routinely available within standard physiotherapy clinics. These are only recommended where clinically appropriate and always sit within a wider plan of care.
Ganglion cyst aspiration
Ganglion cyst aspiration is a specialist service that may be appropriate where a ganglion cyst is causing persistent discomfort, limiting function, or interfering with activity.
Aspiration is not suitable for every ganglion cyst, and recurrence can occur. Where appropriate, options can be discussed following assessment.

Imaging request and interpretation
Where imaging is likely to meaningfully inform diagnosis or decision-making, we may recommend appropriate investigations such as X-ray, ultrasound, or MRI.
Findings are interpreted within the clinical context, rather than in isolation, to avoid over-reliance on imaging results that may not fully explain symptoms.

Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) for pelvic health
Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) is a specialist pelvic health rehabilitation tool that may be used in selected cases to support muscle activation, awareness, and control.
It is used as part of a broader pelvic health physiotherapy programme where clinically appropriate.
Joint injection therapy
In some cases, injection therapy may be considered as part of a broader management pathway — often alongside rehabilitation and reassessment.
Decisions around injection therapy are made carefully, based on clinical findings, response to previous treatment, and individual circumstances.

Arranging an appointment
If you are unsure whether a specialist service is appropriate, we recommend starting with an assessment. This allows your clinician to determine what is driving your symptoms and guide you toward the most appropriate plan.
Not every patient needs a specialist service. Our role is to guide decisions with clarity, using the right tools at the right time.
Working within a wider clinical pathway
We recognise the importance of integrated care. Where appropriate, treatment may involve liaison with GPs, orthopaedic consultants, imaging providers, or pain services to ensure care remains joined-up and appropriately guided.
