Your physiotherapist will assess your symptoms, movement, and physical function before developing a personalised treatment plan based on your condition and recovery goals.

What happens at my first physiotherapy appointment?

Your first physiotherapy appointment provides an opportunity to discuss your condition, symptoms, and how pain or injury is affecting your everyday activities.

Your physiotherapist can assess your movement and physical function and discuss what you want to achieve through treatment. This information is used to develop an individual physiotherapy treatment plan rather than applying the same approach to every client.

Depending on your condition, your plan may involve manual therapy, exercise, or other appropriate physiotherapy techniques. Treatment and exercise can then be adjusted as your rehabilitation and recovery progress.

Can physiotherapy help with sports injuries?

Yes. Motion Ease Physiotherapy provides sports physiotherapy for clients recovering from sports injuries and sporting injuries.

Sports injury rehabilitation will depend on the nature of your injury, your current physical function, and the demands of your chosen sport. Physiotherapy treatment may include manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, progressive strengthening, and sport-specific exercise and programming where appropriate.

Your physiotherapist can adjust your exercise program throughout injury recovery as your movement and strength improve. Motion Ease Physiotherapy also provides return-to-sport support and combat sports injury rehabilitation.

How does exercise rehabilitation support injury recovery?

Exercise rehabilitation can form an important part of recovery from an injury. Your physiotherapist can recommend an exercise program based on your current movement, physical function, and individual goals.

Exercise may be used to progressively work on movement and muscle strength throughout rehabilitation. The specific exercises recommended will depend on your injury and stage of recovery.

For clients recovering from sports injuries, sport-specific exercise and programming may also be incorporated where appropriate. Your exercise program can progress over time as your strength and physical capacity improve.

What is manual therapy?

Manual therapy is a hands-on treatment approach that may be included as part of your physiotherapy treatment plan.

Whether manual therapy is appropriate will depend on your condition, symptoms, and individual needs. It may be combined with exercise and other available physiotherapy techniques as part of your treatment and rehabilitation.

Your physiotherapist will determine which approaches are suitable following your assessment. Your treatment plan can then be adapted as your movement, physical function, and recovery progress.

Can physiotherapy help with pain relief?

Do you provide exercise programs as part of physiotherapy?

Do you provide post-operative rehabilitation?

Motion Ease Physiotherapy provides post-surgical rehabilitation for clients recovering following surgery.

Post-operative rehabilitation needs vary between individuals. Your physiotherapist can develop a treatment and exercise plan based on your stage of recovery, physical function, and individual goals.

Physiotherapy and exercise may focus on progressively supporting movement, mobility, strength, balance, and flexibility. Your rehabilitation can be adjusted over time as you work towards returning to everyday activities and, where appropriate, exercise, work, or sport.

How many physiotherapy appointments will I need?

The number of physiotherapy appointments required varies depending on your individual condition or injury, symptoms, recovery goals, and response to treatment.

Following an assessment, your physiotherapist can discuss an appropriate treatment plan with you. Some clients may require physiotherapy for a shorter period, while others may benefit from ongoing treatment and exercise rehabilitation.

Your progress can be reassessed throughout your recovery. This allows your physiotherapy treatment and exercise program to change as your movement, strength, and physical function improve.

How can physiotherapy support injury prevention?

Injury prevention is one of the areas of expertise at Motion Ease Physiotherapy.

Your physiotherapist can consider your movement, strength, exercise, and the physical demands of your work or sport when developing an appropriate plan. Exercise may be incorporated to support physical function and help reduce the risk of future injury.
