What
to expect: Modern
physiotherapy is all about encouraging the body’s own
optimal, natural healing. An extensive medical knowledge of the
body’s structure, function and mechanics is the basis for
accurate assessment, diagnosis and treatment of your problem. Once
the source and cause of pain or dysfunction is clearly established,
a variety of predominently “hands on” treatment
techniques can be used to relieve pain, restore joint movement,
lengthen tight muscles. “Sorting the cause” is
paramount to this treatment approach, and skilled exercise
prescription is used to strengthen weak muscles and improve core
stability as appropriate. Education also plays a primary role, to
ensure that you understand what’s wrong, and what you can do
to prevent further problems and stay pain free! More serious
problems requiring investigation or specialist review are identiied
accurately and early by a therapist with a sound medical
background.
