Frequently Asked Questions

Physiotherapists are university-trained experts in injury diagnosis, treatment, exercise prescription, injury prevention, and rehabilitation. They help patients recover from physical conditions using evidence-based techniques and hands-on therapy.

Please bring your previous medical or surgical history. If relevant, bring any scan or MRI reports and a list of current medications. Comfortable, loose clothing is recommended for ease of movement during your assessment.

The number of treatments varies depending on your condition and individual recovery rate. After a thorough initial assessment, your physiotherapist will discuss a realistic treatment plan and estimated number of sessions required.
