How do you decide the price of the treatment?

After assessment, as Physiotherapists we consider which treatment modalities (e.g. massage, shockwave therapy, joint mobilisation, etc.) will provide the best outcome for your condition. Our joy as physiotherapist is ensuring you recover quickly, with the best outcome. Each treatment modality (e.g. massage) has a treatment code and specified rate as per Discovery rates. To prevent patients from experiencing financial toxicity, only certain combinations of treatment codes can be used together, so that the total amount for the treatment is never unreasonable.

Do I have to stop exercising after treatment?

NO! Please go to gym after your physio session with us! The latest clinical evidence shows us that protected loading in a CRITICAL part of healing of from a significant injury. Protective loading whilst healing from an injury has statistically superior outcomes as opposed to resting, and then resuming training.
