We'll start with a friendly chat to get to know you and your concerns. Then, we'll dive into a detailed history and physical assessment of the problem area. Depending on your needs, we'll prescribe manual therapy, exercise therapy, or both, and develop a personalized treatment plan just for you.
During your initial consultation, we'll take a thorough health history, discuss your current lifestyle habits, and set some goals. Then, we'll work through a personalized exercise program tailored just for you. And yes, laughter might be part of the prescription! In subsequent sessions, we'll review your goals and adjust the exercise program as needed.
Harris, our Physiotherapist, will diagnose your issue, provide treatment, and give you some 'homework' exercises. Angelique, our Exercise Physiologist, focuses on 1:1 sessions or small group classes, guiding you through exercises without 'hands-on' therapy. Harris is your go-to for musculoskeletal and sports physiotherapy, while Angelique helps those with chronic diseases like cancer or heart disease, building strength and confidence in a private, gym-like setting. Contact us to discuss your needs, and we'll guide you to the right practitioner!
Please bring any reports or scans related to your concern. If you don't have any, that's perfectly fine. Also, bring any referrals you might have. Otherwise, just wear comfortable clothes, bring some water, and come with a positive attitude!
