The Physiotherapist will take you into one of the individual treatment rooms. A series of questions will be asked on the history and nature of your condition. Aggravating and easing factors will also be asked so that the Physiotherapist can gain a true picture of your problem, such as how it commenced and how it is affecting your everyday life at home and work. Questions on your medical history, medication and lifestyle will also be asked. If you take a number of medications it may be easier to write these down on a piece of paper before you come.

Once the subjective examination (above) has been completed the clinical or objective examination will be performed. You will be asked to undress so that the area to be assessed and treated can be seen. Please wear suitable clothing for this, your dignity will be maintained at all times. The Physiotherapist will ask you to perform a series of movements and will perform their own tests to determine for example; pain, movement, muscle length and power, muscle balance and stability as necessary.

Physiotherapy is a specialised profession aimed at individuals of all ages to prevent, restore, maintain, develop and enhance movement and function. These circumstances may occur naturally through ageing, injury or disease. The aim is to restore the client’s function, movement, fitness and well-being to achieve a healthy and active lifestyle.

Physiotherapy achieves this through a process of assessing an individual’s movement and function and using agreed upon goals and objectives. Physiotherapy views human movement and function at home, leisure and work as central to the health and well-being of individuals.

We are able to offer private individual treatment rooms furnished with modern electrotherapy equipment and exercise gymnasiums at our listed building in Woodley.
