What to expect?
On your first visit we will discuss your current problem and how it is affecting your life, your previous injuries, medical history and your physical goals. Next, a physical assessment will be carried out to establish what structures are causing you pain and what underlying factors are contributing to your problem.
Following your assessment we will discuss the findings and consider the best evidence-based rehab plan. Treatment typically includes plenty of advice and education, a tailored evidence-based rehabilitation program, and hands-on treatment.
After your first appointment, your Physiotherapist will have a treatment plan in action. We will start will a catch up on how you have been doing since your previous appointment, a physical assessment to monitor your progress, a re-evaluation of your rehab program and hands-on treatment.
