What happens during treatment session & how long does it last?

How long & what happens?

Your physiotherapy or osteopathy treatment will take around 45 minutes, give or take 5 minutes, depending on your injury. If it’s your first appointment with us, we will ask a few questions about you; how you are feeling, what injuries, if any you have, in order to work out the best plan to help.

The questions generally take around 5 to 10 minutes. We will then have a look at some of your movements to see what’s going with your muscles and joints. After that we will ask you to lie on the couch so we can work on different areas of your body.

We may ask you to take your top and trousers off, so bring shorts if that helps you feel more comfortable. We are used to seeing people in their underwear but understand that the person may not feel that comfortable, we have towels to keep you covered.

Towards the end of the session we will teach you a few movements and exercises so that you can learn how to keep areas of your body moving and feeling stronger. We will email an exercise programme if you wish.
