Our Treatment

Our treatment approach is tailored to each individual, simply because conditions and recovery times differ for every patient. We will always try to keep things simple, to ensure that there is no unnecessary confusion and that any fears that you may have are alleviated. Good communication between patient and therapist is vital to achieve the most effective results.

During your initial consultation we will take a thorough case history of your current symptoms and other medical issues. Following this we will complete a physical examination. Once an impression has been reached about your condition, you will be given an initial explanation and a treatment plan.

If further tests are deemed necessary such as X-rays or perhaps an MRI scan, this can be arranged via our referral process to local private hospitals.

On Arrival

We politely ask that you arrive at your appointment time and to please wait outside the treatment room until greeted by your clinician.
Our admin team are working remotely, therefore occasionally the door maybe locked. We would greatly appreciate your patience and to wait for your physiotherapist to be greeted - tel: 0131 235 2354.
Please remember to bring appropriate clothing to your session. For example, shorts for lower limb and lower back issues and/or a scoop neck vest top for upper limb and neck issue. This is to allow the physiotherapist to assess and treat the presenting area as efficiently as possible.
Based on the size and layout of our clinic, please do not bring anyone else to your appointment unless they are your carer, guardian or chaperone.

Facilities

Please provide us with prior notice if you require disability access or whether you are currently using any mobility aids e.g. crutches, sticks or a wheelchair. A home visit maybe more appropriate and our team will be able to arrange this for you. Please call 0131 235 235.
Our toilet unfortunately is not disability accessible.
We have a rehab gym and gait analysis space which is in use throughout the day.
