What Is Physiotherapy?

Physiotherapists use a variety of techniques, including manual therapy, exercise prescription, and education, to help individuals restore movement and function, manage pain, and improve overall physical health.

Your First Physiotherapy Appointment

Beginning physiotherapy can be both exciting and a little nerve-wracking, but when you know what to expect, it can make the first appointment a little easier.

• Initial Assessment: Your first visit will begin with a thorough assessment. Our physiotherapist will take the time to understand your medical history, current symptoms, and any previous treatments you may have undergone. This helps us to create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
• Physical Examination: Following the assessment, the physiotherapist will conduct a physical examination. This may include evaluating your range of motion, strength, and flexibility. The goal is to identify any limitations or areas of concern that need to be addressed.
• Goal Setting: After discussing your concerns and conducting the physical examination, your physiotherapist will work with you to set realistic and achievable goals for your treatment. This collaborative approach ensures that you are actively involved in your recovery process.
• Treatment Plan: Based on the assessment and your goals, your physiotherapist will suggest a tailored treatment plan. This may include hands-on therapy, exercises, and education about your condition and recovery strategies.
• Follow-Up: At the end of your appointment, your physiotherapist will discuss the next steps and schedule any necessary follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed.
