At North City Physiotherapy our goal is to provide you with the best possible outcome. In order to do this well, a thorough assessment of your injury, condition or problem is the first step for us, and all cases ongoing reassessment is necessary to track and monitor your progress.
Our physiotherapists training & experience will dictate just how well this process occurs.
In our assessment we will conduct a comprehensive examination when you come to us, which involve getting a detailed history, and then doing an objective examination which will be several physical tests on you. At the end of our assessment our goal is to provide the following information:
- Can we help you? Quite important!
- Your diagnosis
- Your prognosis, meaning how long it will take for us to achieve your outcome
- Treatment techniques we will be using
- Any products or additional services you might require in your rehabilitation
- Your treatment plan including how often we need to see to achieve the outcome you want.
Throughout the assessment it’s important that you understand all the information, the why, and then the “how”.
