‘Congratulations on beginning your Journey to Recovery with Precision Physio’.

At your first appointment you will need to bring:

• any x-rays or scans you have had recently;
• your health fund or pension card;
• a GP referral;
• insurance details or WorkCover medical certificate;
• EPC referral or patient care plan where applicable;
• DVA referral form or a current veterans affair card.

On your first visit you will be asked to arrive for your appointment about 10 minutes early so that we can provide you will all the relevant information and to ensure there is enough time to fill out the appropriate forms required by your physiotherapist.

Your first treatment session.

Your first treatment session will last for 45 mins to 1 hour and your physio will do a full examination to work out your diagnosis, discuss this with you and let you know what is required to get you feeling better!

Your physio will perform a detailed assessment of your condition. This session could include hands-on treatment, the use of our gym and you may be given some home based exercises to do. You might be required to have an x-ray or other diagnostic tests to choose the most appropriate therapy to suit your condition. Most musculoskeletal problems can be addressed by a physio and if you require any other assessment your physio will consult your GP.

Once your physio has assessed your condition and diagnosed the problem they will make sure you understand what’s wrong. They will work with you to develop an effective treatment plan that takes into account your lifestyle, leisure activities and general health. This will include advice on how you can help yourself.

Our goal at Precision Physio is to ensure that the underlying problem is corrected and that the risk of the pain recurring is minimised.

Our treatment programs combine hands-on treatment with specifically structured exercises to give clients long-term freedom from pain!
