Our service begins with us listening to your story and what you feel is going on from the very beginning and may go back to any childhood injuries you had

We ask you to include any current emotional or lifestyle stressors for example sleep and stress as well as anything you are avoiding at present due to your symptoms. Together we aim to clearly define your ultimate goal in deciding to come to us as it is much easier get to the destination if we know exactly where it is!

Physical Exam

We then proceed to a thorough physical examination and by analysing our findings in line with your story we will begin eliminating possibilities to zone in on your true cause and discover what exactly is going on with you.

A specific outcome

From this we also form specific outcome measures which we can re test after each session to demonstrate our functional improvements and guide future treatments and home plans.

Positivity

These are both vital elements in preventing recurrence of your symptoms. Throughout this process we pride ourselves on our positivity, which studies prove will directly affect your results as well as educating our clients so that you feel less threatened and more empowered about what is going and how exactly together we will get you to your ultimate goal and prevent recurrence.

Variety of Tools

We then have wide variety of tools to choose from to get you feeling the best you can and through gradual exposure principles and bespoke home management plans we prevent the issue from returning – a comprehensive list can be seen in ‘Our Services’.
