Relief. Rehabilitation. Recovery

Your initial appointment lasts up to 45 minutes and provides an opportunity for a thorough assessment to understand the nature of your symptoms and determine the most appropriate course of care. The session begins with a detailed discussion about your presenting complaint, relevant medical history and what you aim to achieve from treatment. This ensures all aspects of your care are safe, evidence-based and tailored specifically to you. All information is treated in strict confidence. 

A physical examination will then be carried out to assess how your body moves and functions. This may include a combination of active movements, clinical tests and hands on evaluation to help identify contributing factors. Once findings have been explained and treatment options discussed, hands on care will usually begin during your first appointment.

Follow-up appointments last up to 30 minutes and focus on ongoing treatment and reviewing your response to care. Each session begins with a brief reassessment to monitor progress, discuss any changes since your previous visit and adjust the treatment plan accordingly. 

These appointments are designed to build on previous improvements, ensuring your care remains effective and goal focused. Treatment continues to be hands on, evidence based and tailored to your individual progress. Sessions also provide an opportunity to address any questions and refine your management plan as recovery continues. 

Please wear comfortable clothing that allows for easy movement; sportswear, leggings or shorts are ideal. If treatment involves areas such as the knees or hips, loose fitting clothing like shorts or joggers can make assessment easier. You’re welcome to bring a friend or family member with you if this helps you feel more comfortable during your appointment. 

Soreness or stiffness after treatment is normal and typically resolves within 24-48 hours. Advice will be provided on what to expect and how to manage any post treatment discomfort if needed. If you have any questions before, during or after your appointment, please don’t hesitate to ask.
