At the first appointment a detailed assessment will be performed. This will involve taking a history from you of your current problem and any relevant medical history. An examination will be performed to assess, for example your movement and strength of the affected region. You will be asked to undress to your underwear if appropriate so that the affected area can be seen. Your dignity will be maintained at all times.
Following the assessment an explanation will be given to you of your symptoms and a treatment plan will be devised and discussed with you. Treatment will be started at the first appointment. Subsequent sessions will involve a short reassessment, continuation and progression of your treatment.
All assessments and treatments are on a one to one basis in your workplace.
