Physiotherapy Fawkner: What To Expect
1. Initial Examination
In your physiotherapy consultation, we focus on understanding your concerns and examining your medical history, along with conducting a detailed assessment. This process helps us gather vital information about your chronic conditions, musculoskeletal or sports injuries, enabling us to select the most appropriate manual therapy for your unique situation.
2. Educational Guidance and Treatment Blueprint
Now that we understand your situation, it's our chance to enlighten you! We use visual learning tools, including anatomy models and informative posters, to give you a detailed explanation of your condition. Afterwards, we'll present your manual therapy options and seek your input.
3. Active Physical Treatment
At our physiotherapy clinic, your hands-on treatment, be it dry needling, joint mobilisation, Clinical Pilates, remedial massage, or a blend of various therapies, is always delivered with a friendly smile.
4. Training and Ongoing Support
Our approach to treatment encompasses more than direct hands-on therapy. We actively continue to assist you in preventing future injuries, which can impact anyone, not just individuals with existing injuries.

Do you provide treatment for chronic pain?
Yes, managing chronic pain is part of our services. We recognise the role chronic pain can play and strive to help you manage it effectively.

Can I receive treatment on the same day as my first appointment?
Usually, you can start your treatment on the same day as your initial assessment. There might be exceptions, such as when a referral for further assessment is required. But as a general rule, you can look forward to beginning treatment on the day you’re assessed.

What is the typical number of physiotherapy sessions?
