How do physiotherapy sessions work?
Treatment begins with an assessment that identifies the cause of the problem and agrees on goals, followed by sessions according to a clear plan. Progress in physiotherapy is gradual by nature and depends a great deal on keeping up your exercises at home between sessions. These are the usual steps:
- 1 Assessment: the physiotherapist asks about your pain, tests movement and strength, and reviews your doctor’s reports and X-rays.
- 2 Plan: you agree on goals and an approximate number of sessions.
- 3 Treatment sessions: guided exercises, plus other techniques where they suit your condition.
- 4 Home exercises: a simple programme to continue between visits.
- 5 Review: your progress is reassessed and the plan adjusted as needed.
Do you need to see a doctor before physiotherapy?
For a recent injury, or pain that comes with numbness or weakness, it’s best to be examined by a doctor first to rule out a fracture or other causes. That is easy to arrange here, because the orthopedic clinic and X-ray department are in the same building.
If you have a referral or report from another doctor, bring it along with any scans. Ask our team when booking which documents are needed and how long a session lasts, and wear comfortable sportswear that lets you move freely.
Common questions
How many physiotherapy sessions will I need?
It varies from person to person, depending on the problem, how long you’ve had it and how you respond to treatment. The physiotherapist gives you an estimate after the first assessment and reviews it as you progress. Keeping up your home exercises helps you get better results.
Does physiotherapy hurt?
You may feel some soreness or muscle tiredness after the first sessions. This is common and usually eases within a day or two. Sharp or increasing pain is not expected, so tell your physiotherapist straight away so the exercises can be adjusted.
Is the department suitable for older people and wheelchair users?
The polyclinic is wheelchair accessible. Exercises can be adapted for older people and anyone with limited mobility, often with a focus on balance and preventing falls. Mention your needs when you book so the team can prepare for your visit.
