  • you experience neck pain, pain between the shoulder blades or you feel muscle tension,
  • you experience neurological symptoms such as numbness, tingling or burning sensation in the hands or feet, decreased strength in the hands and feet,
  • you experience acute or chronic pain in the body’s soft tissues or joint pain,
  • you have a ligament sprain, tendon injury or inflammation,
  • you feel pain when doing certain exercises,
  • you are recovering from an injury,
  • you want to improve your posture,
  • you want to assess your physical condition and capacity,
  • you are going to start attending group or individual exercises.

What happens during the consultation?

At the beginning of the consultation, the physiotherapist will ask you to tell about co-morbidities, past injuries, illnesses, general health, lifestyle, leisure activities and daily activities that may be causing the current symptoms. If you have serious health problems (herniated disk, radiculopathy or an injury), it is recommended to bring all available records from doctors and diagnostic procedures to the consultation, to help the physiotherapist to get a more accurate picture of the patient’s health.

This is followed by posture assessment, manual muscle testing, joint examination and assessment of balance and coordination, if necessary. Neurodynamic tests are used to explore the mechanosensitivity of peripheral nerves. The examination allows the practitioner to identify the possible cause of the problem or pain and to define the best solutions to it.

After the assessment, additional examinations – Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), Computed tomography (CT), X-ray examination or a visit to another specialist – an orthopedic surgeon, neurologist or neurosurgeon may be recommended, depending on the problem.

Based on the results of the patient examination the physiotherapist draws up an individual physiotherapy treatment plan, makes recommendations and, if possible, performs the initial treatment immediately. All treatment procedures are first discussed with the patient in order to find the best and most appropriate treatment for a particular person. At the end of the consultation, the patient will be instructed on what tasks and how they will need to proceed at home, and will schedule the next visit if necessary.

After the initial physiotherapy consultation, if necessary, the patient continues to undergo follow-up treatments. Depending on the established treatment plan during follow up treatment the physiotherapist can teach the patient therapeutic exercises, perform joint mobilisations or manipulations, therapeutic massage, kinesiology taping or use other therapeutic modalities.

The initial consultation takes approximately 55 minutes and usually includes treatment as well if appropriate.

Depending on the patient’s problem, follow-up physiotherapy consultations can last between 45 and 55 minutes.
