I was shocked! ๐ฑ
Once I treated a man in his 90's and it was his FIRST EVER physio appointment!!
I did let him know he has had a very good run, injury-wise! ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ
Safe to say, within a few sessions he was back being pain-free and active again! ๐๐ผโ
But it did make me realise that many people have never seen a physio, and have no idea what goes on at an appointment ๐ง
Let me explain what happens, particularly in your first physio visit ๐๐ผ

This helps us get to know your relevant medical history, your physical activity profile and your specific goals for seeing a physio.

This helps us form a 'hypothesis' as to what the problem could be.

This is unique to every person and injury. We need to conduct a physical assessment to test our hypothesis.

From our assessments, we explain our findings and together we work out what the best plan of action is, starting right away! This usually involves some kind of manual therapy to immediately help reduce your pain (hands-on techniques, gliding joints, massaging muscles, dry needling, theragun, assisted movements etc.)

We let you know how to best manage your condition outside of the physio clinic. This can include lifestyle modifications and exercise prescription to rehabilitate your ache/pain/injury and help prevent it from coming back.
And there you have it! What happens at your first physio appointment with us. Of course, every assessment and treatment is tailored ๐๐ผ ๐๐ผ๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ต๐ฒ๐น๐ฝ ๐ด๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ผ๐ ๐ฏ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ธ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ผ๐ ๐น๐ผ๐๐ฒ ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป-๐ณ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐๐ผ
