Your Physiotherapy Journey
Initial Consultation
During your first session (45-60minutes), your physio will take a detailed history and assess posture, flexibility and strength. We may use special tests to identify the structures causing your symptoms. Treatment usually includes hands‑on therapy (such as massage, joint mobilisation, cupping or dry needling) to alleviate discomfort and improve mobility. We’ll also prescribe targeted exercises via our digital platform, ensuring you have clear guidance for self‑management.
Ongoing Care
Follow‑up sessions (30–60 minutes) focus on progressing your exercise program, reassessing your movement and addressing any remaining restrictions. We provide education on ergonomics, load management and activity modification to reduce the risk of reinjury..
