The initial consultation will usually last for between 45 minutes and 1 hour. This consultation involves obtaining a full medical history, followed by a thorough examination and treatment of the affected areas. Treatment techniques vary depending on your condition, but may involve soft tissue massage, stretching, manipulation and mobilisation techniques. Almost all techniques are 'hands on'. A return consultation will generally last for 30 to 45 minutes.
Patients are encouraged to participate in home stretching and exercises to help reduce the number of treatments required to resolve their pain or injury. Scott or Jane will advise you of this during your treatment.
Do I Need A Referral?
