The physiotherapy process

At your first appointment a detailed history will be taken, followed by a thorough assessment of your condition. Please allow up to one hour for your first appointment. It may be useful to bring a pair of shorts or vest top as the physiotherapist will need to see the areas that relate to your condition. You will receive expert advice and treatment and we will provide you with a personal recovery programme tailored to your needs.

Follow up appointments last up to 30 minutes which includes note writing time for the physiotherapist. With your permission our physiotherapists will liaise with your GP and provide a detailed discharge summary at the end of your treatment. Our physiotherapists can also refer you to a consultant who can arrange diagnostic tests if necessary including X-ray, CT and MRI scanning.
