Physiotherapy Treatment
Initial assessment
We allocate an hour for a full assessment of your problem, at the end of which the consultant physiotherapist will make a diagnosis. We will then explain how your problem can be best resolved and with the time remaining begin your treatment.
Treatment sessions
Should you need them, follow up treatment sessions are for blocks of 30 minutes. During this time your injured tissues will be treated to reduce pain and swelling so that you quickly start to feel better. You will also be guided through a varying amount of exercise appropriate for your exact needs. When in pain your body very quickly adapts and compensates so that you often change the way you hold yourself and move. Muscles that once did their job quite happily often no longer do so and need to be woken up again so that normal movement patterns can be regained again. This is vital for most conditions so that the actual pain resolves optimally and the chances or the same or similar problems happening in the future are reduced.
