Motion is lotion. That’s the key principle to physiotherapy. But it is often difficult after an injury to decide on the best approach eg. rest/ activity, heat/ice, treatment/no treatment. Everybody and ‘every body’ has it’s unique needs when it comes to healing and rehabilitation, depending on your age, health status, the length of time you have had the problem for, and what you want to get back doing.
By accounting for all these things together we can work with you to come up with a realistic and achievable plan to get back to your best. This plan will be individual to you and your goals and may involve hands on or other therapies to help you gain and maintain motivation and momentum.
The key part of a physiotherapy consultation is the conversation at the initial appointment. Each question is designed to extract the right information about your injury so we can form, modify and prioritise clinical judgements that will allow accurate and appropriate testing, and ultimately a diagnosis. From here the journey to recovery begins.
A quick appointment is key to exploring and offering the best management options.
The Abbeyfields Clinic have physiotherapy appointments available within 48 hours and often we can get you in the same day. We have appointments available from 7.30am to 8.00pm and Saturday mornings to accommodate shift workers and those who have long commutes, or simply cant get time off work during the day.
