Great treatment schedule by Abby, after a long international flight and walking crooked for a week, she had me back to normal after a few treatments…ready for my long flight back home to the USA. Did micro needling and cupping- worked well.

Abby was amazing- very knowledgeable, gentle and understanding- and helped me through my pain. I liked that she gave me follow up rehab to do at home- so I wasn’t completely dependent on her. A real pleasure working with her.

What to look for in a physiotherapist

When choosing a physiotherapist, it is important to look for someone who is qualified and experienced in treating your specific injury or pain. You should also ask around for recommendations from friends and family members.

Another important factor to consider is the therapist's approach to treatment. Everyone responds differently to treatment, so you want to make sure the therapist you choose has a method that will work for you.

Finally, make sure the therapist offers a free consultation so you can get to know them and their approach to treatment. This is a great opportunity to ask any questions you have and to get a feel for their bedside manner.

Here are some tips to help you choose wisely!

1. Consider their experience and qualifications.

You want to make sure your physiotherapist is experienced in treating the type of injury or pain you’re experiencing. Ask about their qualifications and how long they’ve been practicing. A physiotherapist with more experience will likely have a better success rate in treating your specific condition.

4. Ask about their approach to treatment.

Everyone responds differently to treatment, so you want to make sure the physiotherapist you choose has an approach that will work for you. Ask about their methods and whether they use any pain management techniques.

5. Make sure they offer a free consultation.

Most reputable physiotherapists will offer a free consultation so you can get to know them and their approach to treatment. This is a great opportunity to ask any questions you have and to get a feel for their bedside manner. Choosing the right physiotherapist in Hillcrest doesn’t have to be difficult. By considering their experience, qualifications, and area of expertise, you can make sure you find the best therapist for your needs. And don’t forget to ask around for recommendations from friends and family members!
