Our Approach

Assessment

Our medical professionals will ask you to explain your problem in as much detail as possible. After you’ve explained your problem, we’ll ask you few more details to clarify so we can get a better understanding of what you’re experiencing.

Scans

We’ll discuss previous Scans, MRI, sonars that may help exclude other structures involved. Our physiotherapist talks you through the reports & results and explain each word to ensure you understand the scope of your problem.

Screening & Testing

Now we’ll ask you to perform a set of movements or actions and give feedback on what you’re experiencing whether it be pain, stiffness, pressure or numb – we want to know. Our clinical minds will interpret the data from these tests and guide our thoughts to the cause of your pain and more importantly the extent of the damage to your tissue. With these screening & movement tests we are able to accurately pinpoint the problem.

Diagnosis

Now we have a clear picture of what we’re dealing with. The core of effective treatment is an accurate diagnosis. We’ll explain our findings and give you our professional opinion on what’s the process going forward, recovery time, expected goals and milestones you ought to achieve.

Treatment & Advice

We will guide you through the whole process, no need to worry. At this stage we are able to provide you with sound advice on how to manage the pain and stage of healing. Our medical professionals can advise you what you should and shouldn’t do along with all the factors that may be making your pain worse.

Treatment Program

What’s best for your condition? Some may need exercises, stretches, dynamic mobilization and others may need to take it easy for a few days after a flare-up. So it depends on what stage of healing and recovery you are.

Follow Up

We’ll have to monitor your progress, to ensure you are achieving the goals? After your first session our medical professionals explain when we’ll meet up again. Some conditions resolve over 6-8 weeks, but others may require more frequent check-ups. Healing is a process… and we are here to guide you through it.
