FAQs
Can I continue seeing a therapist even when I feel better?
At [site-name], we understand that Physiotherapy is not just about treating the symptoms of your condition but also preventing future injury or pain. This is why we encourage our patients to continue seeing a physiotherapist even when they start to feel better.
While you may feel significant improvement in your symptoms and overall function, it is important to understand that Physiotherapy is a comprehensive and ongoing process. Continuing to see a physiotherapist can help you maintain your progress and prevent future injury or pain.
Our expert physiotherapists will work with you to develop a personalized maintenance plan that addresses your unique needs and goals. This may include ongoing exercises, stretches, or lifestyle modifications to help you maintain optimal function and prevent injury or pain.
After you have finished your therapy sessions, you can continue to see our physiotherapist in several different ways, for example:
- Your therapist will see your review and progress in your at-home therapy program.
- You can schedule a re-evaluation after a month to ensure you are still doing well and modify your home program as needed.
- You can arrange to see your therapist at regular intervals (i.e., every six months) for a consultation to assess your progress, ensure you are not regressing, and deal with anything new that may have started.
We can also arrange to meet you at your gym to work with you on determining what equipment and exercises would benefit your continued recovery.
If you have any questions or concerns about continuing Physiotherapy even when you start to feel better, please do not hesitate to discuss them with our physiotherapists.
Can my physiotherapist diagnose me?
The definition of diagnosis means to identify or determine the cause or nature of a disease, disorder, or other medical condition. The process of diagnosis typically involves collecting information about a patient's symptoms, medical history, and physical examination results. This information is then used to form a diagnosis, which is a medical opinion or conclusion about the nature of the condition.
During your initial session at [site-name], our physiotherapist will conduct a thorough evaluation, including a detailed history and comprehensive physical examination. This assessment helps determine the severity of your injury or illness, pinpoint the source of your symptoms, and identify contributing factors.
The goal of Physiotherapy is to help you find relief and/or recover from your condition. Although the diagnosis is essential to this process, it is not the main focus of a Physiotherapy visit. For example, the diagnosis may point to the location of your symptoms. Still, it does not account for all the factors affecting it, nor does it account for how it is affecting the rest of your body. Our therapists look at the whole person to help you resolve all of your issues, not just the diagnosis.
In addition, physiotherapists regularly collaborate with physicians to confirm or explore potential contradictions to a diagnosis, ensuring the accuracy of your diagnosis and the appropriateness of your treatment plan.
You can trust [site-name] to guide you toward improved health and well-being. Our dedicated team of experts and our commitment to your personalized care will help you get the results you deserve!
