Treatment
If you have an appointment with one of our professional physio team, they will want to establish the cause of your condition and understand exactly how it is affecting you. This means that your physiotherapist will ask you questions about your injury, pain or disorder and then assess your movement quality and strength. Once they are sure they understand your condition, they will begin treatment.
Treatment can include one or more proven physiotherapy techniques and each individual will receive specific treatment that will assist with their injury. Your physiotherapist will explain the treatment they would like you to have, and how this will assist with your recovery.
