I had pyhsio last January for the same thing but i had the treatment in 2011. My consultant wasn't keen on referring me as he didn't think it would help so i self referred. I don't think it helped to be honest. Although i do think if i had physio just after the treatment then it might've been different. Still got the weakness but i've more or less learned to live with it now.
