How we'll help put you "Back in Business!"
We aim to reduce pain and recurrences by improving your understanding of your condition. A thorough assessment is used to assess movement dysfunction. This includes examination of movement patterns, muscle length & strength, as well as quality of muscle activation. Palpation of soft tissue is used to reveal the precise nature of any tightness. Further, diagnostic procedures include assessment of joint function.
Through my formative years as a physiotherapist to elite athletes in Switzerland, I learned the importance of taking a broader perspective. Therefore, if for example we were treating low back pain, I would assess the pelvic girdle, lower limbs, ribcage and shoulders. Similarly, if we were treating the shoulder, I would examine the neck, rib cage and low back-pelvic girdle. Hereby an holistic approach is taken.
Exercise regimes are designed to treat the specific pathology, but are also used as a self assessment tool for you to manage your pain as well as attain your performance goals.
Standard consultations are 40 minute sessions and we strive to have you back in business within 3 - 6 treatments.
On the initial consultation you can expect
- a thorough evaluation , including history taking and movement assessment
