Job Description
How we work
Our practitioners work as one team. Care at Joint Space is integrated, patient centric and focused on the whole patient journey, and physiotherapy is an integrated part of that journey. Our physiotherapists share patients with our osteopaths, chiropractors, medical practitioners and movement coaches, and work across our gym, movement space and recovery space, so a patient’s rehabilitation continues in the place where they will carry it on. Clinical standards and direction are held by our Clinical Director.
We see a wide variety of patients, from desk workers and older patients to people recovering from surgery, runners, active people and athletes, and most of them come to us wanting to feel well and move well in their daily lives.
Physiotherapy at Joint Space currently includes:
- Exercise based rehabilitation in our gym and movement space
- Manual therapy, including joint mobilisation, manipulation and soft tissue work
- Post operative rehabilitation
- Movement screens and assessments, alongside the FRC movement assessments run in our movement space
- Return to play programmes for active people and athletes
- Kinstretch and movement classes that patients can continue with once their treatment ends
What we expect from you
- A DHA licensed or DHA eligible physiotherapist able to practise in Dubai
- An exercise based physiotherapist with solid experience in post operative rehabilitation, movement screens and assessments, and return to play
- Strong hands on skills, with manual therapy as a central part of how you treat
- A clear plan of care for each patient that follows the Joint Space patient journey, drawing on our wider services such as movement, recovery and education, with progress reviews built in so patients understand where they are and what comes next
- An approach that sees the person as one connected system, with lifestyle as a real part of their care
- Shared care with the wider team, referring across disciplines when it serves the patient
- Contribution to our workshops, education and community events
What Joint Space offers you
- A clinic built around movement, with a gym, a movement space and a full recovery space (sauna, cold bath, hyperbaric, red light and PEMF) to use as part of your patients’ care
- An established physiotherapy team, with colleagues across osteopathy, chiropractic and functional medicine who share patients and talk to each other
- A patient base that approaches its health proactively
- The autonomy to build your practice within our ecosystem
- Opportunities to teach and keep developing through our workshops and our education platform
Requirements
Who we’re looking for
We are looking for a physiotherapist who enjoys the diversity of what Joint Space has to offer, from the variety of patients to the gym, movement space and recovery space they can use in their care, and who wants to work in an integrated environment where care is shared across a team. If that is the kind of clinic you want to be part of, we would like to hear from you.
Joint Space is a self pay clinic, and the role is full time and on site.
