We appreciate that value is important to you and our fees reflect the level of training, experience and standard of care that you will receive.

Our goal is simply to get you better!

We will help you with your symptoms & advise you with anything you need help with.

 

What to expect at your Initial Consultation

  • Case history

We will need you to tell us all about your symptoms and your past medical history. We will then ask you some specific questions to help us. This helps us formulate some differential diagnosis.

  • Examination

We will then need to examine the area and related areas that are causing your symptoms. We will ask you to perform some simple movements. We will then carry out some specific orthopaedic and neurological tests to help challenge our diagnosis ruling in conditions and ruling out others depending on test results

  • Diagnosis

This is what separates qualified musculoskeletal professionals like physiotherapists and Osteopaths from massage therapists and personal trainers and any other practitioner that is not regulated by a governing body – They are not qualified or educated enough in anatomy, physiology or pathology to make an accurate diagnosis. We will tell you to the best of our ability what is causing your discomfort with any differential diagnosis if it isn’t quite clear at this stage.

  • Treatment and Rehabilitation Plan 

“Treatment”, can take many forms – advice, reassurance, lifestyle changes etc, these may have the biggest effect of your presenting problem.  We will discuss treatment options and carry out the most appropriate treatment plan based the most up to date evidence base.

  • Advice and Reassurance

We will give you some specific advice and reassurance on what to expect. We will tell you what to do before your next session in order to show you how to help yourself, speed up your recovery and reduce your symptoms.

Follow up Consultation –

A follow up appointment is requited to see the results of the initial season and guide future management. On your next visit we will ask if symptoms have changed and improved. We will then do a re-exam of the area with some specific tests to check your progress. After this we will carry out the appropriate treatment needed.

As you progress through your treatment plan we will offer some individual advice on how to avoid these symptoms in the future. This will be related to your work, lifestyle and hobbies.

***Treatment Plans***

Patients who invest in themselves and engage with comprehensive treatment plans often experience improved outcomes as these plans encourage consistency and adherence to care.

Treatment Plans allow patients to buy a number of sessions at a discount because they are committed to investing in themselves to getting better.  The vast majority of musculoskeletal conditions can be helped given appropriate personalised rehabilitation and time. Some conditions like Frozen Shoulder, Rotator cuff strains, tendonopathy or arthritis, will require weeks if not months of care.

Initial Consultation and Two follow up Sessions

This is an excellent starting plan because it allows for a few sessions to formulate a treatment plan and see some results to assess how recovery will go.
