What is Physiotherapy and how do Physiotherapists work?

 

Physiotherapy restores movement and function for those affected by injury, pain or disability. By focusing on the muscular, neural, and skeletal systems, our Physiotherapist can treat various types of pain and movement disorders. In order to meet your therapeutic goals, Yeshodha will perform a detailed assessment and create a comprehensive treatment plan.

Treatment techniques may include manual therapy, strapping, electrotherapy, tailored exercise programs and client education. A good Physio will always encourage you to take charge of your own health. This is done by teaching techniques for recovery, pain relief and injury prevention.

Physiotherapists are first-line practitioners, so you do not need a referral to make an appointment. Where needed, Physios do work closely with other health professionals, to allow for a holistic approach to treatment.

 

What can you expect from a Physiotherapy session?

 

Each physiotherapy session will be unique and individualised, catering to your specific needs and concerns.

Your first session will begin with the taking of your medical history, followed by an assessment and diagnoses. Keeping your main concerns in mind, our Physiotherapist will design a functional and individualised treatment plan.

To boost recovery, you will receive an individualised exercise and home program. This will be reassessed regularly to ensure it is in line with your goals and recovery.

Lastly, a series of follow-up sessions will be recommended.. This will allow for continuity in treatment and to improve chances of full recovery.
