Your first physiotherapy appointment is an important step toward recovery, better mobility and long-term wellbeing. Whether you’re visiting for a recent injury, chronic pain or post-surgical rehabilitation, our goal is to understand your needs and create a treatment plan tailored to you.
Typically your first physiotherapy appointment with Graceville Painslayers Physiotherapy is a longer session to allow for us to perform a thorough initial assessment. During this first appointment we will:
Discuss your goals
You’ll begin by discussing the reason for your appointment and how your symptoms developed.
Complete an assessment
You'll go through a series of movements, and depending on the injury we’ll also perform a sequence of physical tests.
Discover your options
A conversation and questions, along with a physical examination, are usually enough for the physio to arrive at a diagnosis from there we will discuss the treatment options with you.
Start a custom treatment plan
Your Graceville Painslayers Physiotherapy physiotherapist will develop a treatment plan with you that will incorporate a number of different options that are best suited to you and your symptoms in order for you to achieve your goals.
