How does a Physiotherapist decide the best form of treatment?
Physiotherapists undertake a thorough assessment of each problem. This will involve a thorough examination, together with an understanding of your work, rest and recreational activities. This full assessment may identify a problem which is situated some distance from where the pain is felt. It also ensures that the diagnosis and treatment will relate to you and your whole lifestyle. After full consultation with you and your physiotherapist, and possibly your doctor, the best form of treatment will be decided on.
