An injury consultation is ideal for those who are in pain and/or think they have an injury or condition, and are in need of professional advice and treatment.
Your initial consultation is carried out with the aim of gathering together as much information as possible about the issue you are suffering from; to give us a clear idea of what is wrong and how we can help. This involves a chat between you and your therapist on the issue and its onset, your medical history and your lifestyle.
Your therapist examines the area in question. During the physical examination your therapist may assess your:
Posture
Gait
Associated structures surrounding the affected area
You would then be asked to perform simple movements and your therapist may perform special tests. Structures that may be tested include:
Joints
Muscles
Ligaments
Tendons
The joint capsule.
Once your therapist has determined the underlying cause(s), a tailored treatment program may then be implemented based on your individual needs - to get you back to your peak as soon as possible.
