Hi, I’m Jane and I work at Carers UK – welcome to our forum. Understanding that caring can be very physically demanding at times, we have some guidance here on how to care for your back. I hope this is helpful in some way: www.carersuk.org/help-and-advice/health/looking-after-your-health/caring-for-your-back
Any suggestions or questions are most welcome. Best wishes, Jane
Physio is now usually a self referral form to the local physio dept.
Always state your are a carer as this can sometimes helps with your referral time/s. Additionally, there is a limit of times this service is available. But again sometimes carers are offered more sessions.
It’s possible with not wanting to wait for a NHS referral. To go private and use a carers grant.
Thank you your helpful guidance, @sunnydisposition !
