What to expect…
…at a Rehab appointment
-
Consultation on reason for attending + past injury history.
-
Assessment (range of motion, strength, function, site of injury/pain).
-
A rehab approach consists of:
-
Targeted or general exercise, training/work load management, modifications to activities of daily living.
-
Education on the impact of lifestyle and psychological stressors on physical recovery.
-
-
All rehab exercises will be demonstrated by myself and practiced by you.
-
Following the appointment I will record rehab exercise video tutorials for you.
-
I will produce a personalised rehab program pdf including:
-
dosage (reps, sets, frequency) and exercise cues.
-
markers for regression or progression of the exercises
-
markers for return to activity/work/training/sports performance.
-
-
I will monitor your program progression & make any adjustments remotely. Providing ongoing support and advice with Whatsapp via message or voice notes.
-
I will not upsell follow ups. I will not suggest a multi session ‘treatment plan’ or ‘block booking’.
…at a first Massage appointment
-
Consultation regarding reason for attending + relevant physical history.
-
Injury or pain assessment as required.
-
Thorough Soft Tissue Therapy treatment addressing main reason for attending and any areas relevant or influential to the main reason for attending.

I will not just ‘rub the painful bit’. I will also attempt to identify any other factors which may be contributing to your discomfort and also address those.
