What to Expect at Your Physiotherapy Appointment

Your first appointment is a comprehensive assessment designed to help identify the underlying cause of your symptoms and create a personalised treatment plan.

Initial Consultation

During your first visit, Laura will take a detailed medical history, discussing your current symptoms, lifestyle, level of physical activity, occupation, and any relevant medical history. This information helps build a complete picture of your health and ensures your treatment is tailored to your individual needs.

A thorough physical assessment will then be carried out to evaluate how your body moves. You may be asked to change into gym clothing or underwear that you feel comfortable being assessed in. Laura will guide you through a series of simple movements while assessing your posture, mobility, range of movement, joint function, and muscle strength.

Your Treatment Plan

Once the cause of your condition has been identified, Laura will develop a personalised treatment programme. Depending on your needs, this may include one or more of the following:

  • Massage therapy
  • Joint mobilisation and manipulation
  • Acupuncture
  • Soft tissue techniques, including massage, trigger point release and stretching
  • Postural and movement re-education
  • Ergonomic advice
  • Pilates and core stability training
  • Traditional and Kinesio taping
  • Pelvic floor assessment and treatment
  • Personalised exercise prescription

Supporting Your Recovery

Your treatment doesn’t end when you leave the clinic. You’ll receive a tailored home exercise programme, along with practical advice to help manage your symptoms and reduce the impact of everyday activities on your condition. Completing your exercises and following this advice is an essential part of achieving the best possible results.

Appointment Duration

  • Initial Assessment: Up to 60 minutes
  • Follow-Up Appointments: Approximately 35–45 minutes

If, during your assessment, Laura believes physiotherapy is not the most appropriate treatment for your condition, she will advise you accordingly and, where necessary, recommend referral to your GP or another healthcare professional.

  • Follow-Up Appointment (35 minutes): £43
