Physiotherapy
Physio Team-Works
At Physio Team-Works, we provide the highest standard of care possible to all our patients and clients. We achieve this through concise, excellent diagnostic skills based on good clinical evidence.
We treat a wide range of conditions through various treatments such as;
-
Physiotherapy
-
Shockwave Therapy
-
Acupuncture
-
Injection Therapy
-
Pilates
Your first physiotherapy session will be conducted in a private room on a one to one basis with strict confidentiality. You will be asked a series of questions to note your current complaints and we will then ask you a series of questions about any past medical history that is relevant to your complaint.
To assess your problem, we will then be required to examine the affected area in question. (Remember to wear appropriate clothing).
Once we have assessed your physical condition we will be in a better position to provide you with an accurate and thorough clinical diagnosis. If your problem requires a specialist consultant opinion, we can make the appropriate steps on the day of your assessment and refer you directly.
The first physiotherapy session can take between 30 and 45 minutes, however there is no extra charge if takes any longer. Providing you are suitable for treatment we shall treat you on the day of you initial examination.
Some more complex problems might require more time. Follow up appointments are usually based on 30 minute appointments, however if needed we can book double appointments if we feel your problem needs more time.
In other cases you may only require advice. Rehabilitation is always specific. Therefore programs are tailored to your needs; we always ensure that we have provided you with the necessary understanding of any individual programme of exercises. This ensures you have confidence to continue your recovery outside the clinic environment.
