Our fees for Physiotherapy:
Initial Physio consultations – For patient’s that have not undertaken a physiotherapy session with us before, this is where you will discuss with your Physio why you are visiting, what you hope to achieve, and any relevant information form your medical history. From here, your physio will discuss with you a customised treatment plan that will aim to get you back doing the things you love.
How we can help you:
Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession that assesses, diagnoses, treats, and works to prevent disease and disability through physical means. Physiotherapists are experts in movement and function and work in partnership with their patients, assisting them to overcome movement disorders. Our physiotherapists have experience in treating conditions that may have been present from birth, acquired through accident or injury, or are the result of ageing or life-changing events.
During your first consultation, your Physiotherapist will diagnose the cause of your pain (or concerns). From this, they will design a treatment plan that will address your needs and help you reach your goals. In each session following your initial consult, you will work on this treatment plan, gradually progressing towards your goal. Our physiotherapists can help with preventing further injury, improving sports performance, simply getting out of pain, and many more!
