Why Women Over 45 in Rotherham Are Loving Our Free Physiotherapy Sessions

Village Physio

Maintaining mobility, strength, and confidence becomes even more important as we age. For women over 45 in Rotherham, staying active can sometimes feel challenging due to health conditions, joint pain, or simply the hustle and bustle of life. Our free group physiotherapy sessions at the United Multicultural Centre offer expert-led care and a welcoming community to support your wellbeing.

Here is why women across Rotherham are embracing these weekly sessions and why they might be just what you have been looking for:


1. Expert Care from a Chartered Physiotherapist

Unlike many chair-based exercise classes led by fitness coaches, our sessions are designed and led by a chartered physiotherapist from Village Physio. This means every exercise is grounded in medical expertise, ensuring it is safe, effective, and tailored to your needs.


Participants have the unique opportunity to ask questions and receive professional advice on managing pain, improving mobility, or recovering from specific conditions like arthritis or osteoporosis.


2. Tailored to You

Each session is designed with the participants in mind. Exercises are gentle, achievable, and adaptable to suit different fitness levels and health concerns. Whether you are dealing with joint pain, recovering from surgery, or simply want to improve your flexibility, these sessions meet you where you are and help you progress safely.


3. Supporting Common Conditions

Our physiotherapy sessions are particularly beneficial for women over 45 dealing with:

  • Arthritis: Exercises that improve joint mobility and reduce stiffness.

  • Osteoporosis: Strengthening muscles and improving balance to prevent falls.

  • Post-Surgery Recovery: Gently regaining strength and mobility after hip or knee replacements.

  • Back and Joint Pain: Stretching and strengthening exercises tailored to ease discomfort.

  • Balance and Coordination Issues: Preventing falls and improving confidence in everyday movements.


4. A Friendly and Supportive Environment

One of the standout features of our sessions is the warm, welcoming atmosphere. Attending a group class can feel intimidating, but our sessions are designed to be inclusive and encouraging. You will join a supportive community of like-minded women who understand your journey and cheer you on every step of the way.


5. Social Connection and Refreshments

Staying active is vital, but so is staying connected. Our sessions provide an opportunity to make new friends and share experiences in a relaxed setting. Plus, there are free refreshments—a perfect way to unwind and chat after the session.


6. Convenient Timing and Location

Sessions take place every Wednesday from 1 PM to 2 PM at the United Multicultural Centre in Rotherham, with a friendly team ready to welcome you.


7. Completely Free of Charge

We believe that everyone should have access to professional physiotherapy, which is why these sessions are offered completely free. This allows you to benefit from high-quality care without any financial barriers.


What Participants Are Saying

Here’s what some of the women who’ve attended our sessions had to say:

💬 "My first time but thoroughly enjoyed it. You can do as much or as little as you need. A friendly bunch and the physiotherapist is very knowledgeable and helpful.”

💬 “Really enjoy going to the exercise sessions on a Wednesday, the exercises are easy to follow and help keep me mobile and joints a little easier to move.”


Why Physiotherapy Matters for Women Over 45

As we age, maintaining flexibility, strength, and balance becomes crucial for preventing falls and preserving independence. Physiotherapy is not just about recovery; it is about empowerment—giving you the tools to stay active, comfortable, and confident in your movements.
