Physiotherapy

For a physiotherapy appointment at Body Consultancy, it’s best to wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to the areas your therapist will assess and treat. Typically, athletic wear or clothing that permits movement, like a t-shirt, shorts, or leggings, is a good choice. Avoid wearing tight or restrictive clothing as it may hinder the therapist’s ability to perform evaluations and provide treatments effectively. The therapist will need to clearly see and palpate/touch/assess movement in the area of your complaint. Additionally, don’t forget to wear appropriate footwear, such as athletic shoes, if needed for exercises or assessments.

At Body Consultancy, new patient consultations for physiotherapy last 50-60 minutes, allowing a comprehensive physical assessment and medical history to take place. A diagnosis and treatment are usually included in this first consultation.

Subsequent treatment sessions are 20-30 minutes, focusing on personalised care and addressing specific musculoskeletal needs efficiently and effectively with manual therapy and rehabilitation exercises.
