HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
Typically this will be 3-4 but will depend on how long you have had the symptoms, the diagnosis or how severe the injury. Some of our customers require only one appointment whilst others may need several to gain full recovery.
do i need to undress?
For a proper assessment the part of the body in which you are experiencing symptoms does need to be exposed. For shoulder and neck assessments for female patients a vest type top is ideal. For knees and hips a pair of shorts is preferred. Patient's dignity is a priority but if you are concerned please email or phone us.

The clinic room is large enough for 3 people so you are welcome to bring you partner or parent.
