Ideally you should aim to arrive 5-10 minutes before your first appointment to complete a consent form. This includes details of your GP, medical history and any medications that you may be on. If you have a long list of medications, it may be worth bringing your repeat prescription list. If you are using a health insurance policy, you will require the details of your policy. Please see the Price List for more information.

The first part of your appointment involves taking a detailed history of your injury/condition. It can be worth thinking about these questions below, as often people forget details when put on the spot! We will also discuss your occupation, lifestyle, current activities/sports and how these may be impacting on your condition. We can discuss if any changes need to be made to aid your recovery.

Once we have a detailed history, we then need to examine the area. We start by looking at your posture/stance/gait (if appropriate) and will then concentrate on the specific area causing you the problem. For a lower back/lower limb problem it can be worth bringing a pair of shorts with you.

For neck, upper back or upper limb problems we will often require your top off. For ladies, if you feel uncomfortable, we can sometimes work around a strappy vest. Please be reassured that at all times we will respect your privacy and make sure that you are comfortable.
