Giving you the confidence to treat yourself at home!
"Tell me and I may forget, Show me and I may not remember, But Involve me and I will understand"
Confucius 451 B.C
We want you to be as independent as possible and not to depend on us. As part of your treatment we will fully educate you on what causes your pain and how to treat yourself at home. We will involve you in the whole process so that you fully understand your condition.
Many injuries can reoccur but 70% of these can be treated at home with our expert help. Pain can be scary and it is easy to avoid doing something about it. We will give you guidance to work through this.
Tools to treat your own injury at home
You want to be active again as soon as you can. Restore your body’s vitality and maximize your independence as soon as possible by getting the right diagnosis and treatment plan, which will include us teaching you how to treat yourself.
Tell us your goals, and we will help you realise them. Do you want to be pain free, run a marathon or garden more easily? Perhaps you want to treat an old injury.
The right diagnosis means you’ll be pain free more rapidly
Our experienced and fully trained physiotherapists work hard to make sure we get to the root of your condition as soon as possible.
After completing a patient registration form, you will undergo a mechanical assessment to determine how your condition developed and what aggravates your symptoms. Your posture will be observed and you will be asked to perform certain movements to see what effects your pain. This will allow us to diagnose your condition and formulate an appropriate treatment plan.
Your general health will also be discussed. All assessments are confidential.
You will be given a series of individualised exercises that will treat your unique ailment. This will ensure you get back to doing the activities you enjoy as soon as possible. You may even play golf or garden a whole lot better!
If we are unable to help you then we will refer to an appropriate person to manage your condition, for example, a Sports medicine Physician or Orthopaedic Surgeon. This would be in consultation with your referring GP.
The McKenzie Method® - Internationally renowned treatment worldwide
All InForm Physio physiotherapists are trained or are training in the advanced McKenzie Method®. This method is a specialised form of physiotherapy for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of back, neck and extremity pain. You will be given a series of exercises to do at home, specifically designed to get you active again and reducing the chance of your injury recurring.
