Your first appointment will be 30 minutes long. During this time
we will do a full assessment, explain what we think the problem
is and discuss a treatment plan with you. Advice and exercises
will be given if appropriate. We will need to see and move the
problem area and so please be prepared to undress appropriately.
Shorts may be helpful if you have a low back, hip or knee problem.
Follow up appointments will also be 30 minutes long but double
appointments can be booked if necessary.
