WhatWill An MSKPhysiotherapy Treatment Be Like?
After we have taken all your details we look at reaching a diagnosis. Your posture,
movement, muscle length, strength and a variety of special tests will be carried out
to identify the cause and any contributing factors. Once a diagnosis is reached we will
work together to create a tailored plan to get you back on track. This may include a
number of varied techniques which are listed below or indeed one treatment that is
consistent until we reach a milestone where we can readdress your treatment plan.
Tailored plans involve complete specialist guidance while meeting your personal
input as a priority. The programme is put together with goals and milestones which
wecanreach together in a timely but relaxed manner. At Skilled Ways, 95% of the
treatments we use are manual therapy based. This means treatment can be
completed in your own home if this is where you would feel more comfortable.
