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.
