FAQs

Our assessment will tell us what you need to do at home. It could be training yourself to react differently to a set of circumstances or to make you fitter to cope with demands or even to ease off and rest.

Your homework will always be clear, simple, quick and effective. If isn’t it’ll be boring and you’ll be unlikely to keep it up.

A standard appointment will always last at least 30 minutes. This is usually enough if you have a recent pain issue. If you’ve had your problem for longer than three months we know many factors can affect your pain. This needs up to an hour to accurately understand your problem and make a treatment plan.
