FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions
Here you can read the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions.
What exactly is physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is a treatment that can be given patients in order to aid with pain relief, healing and rehabilitation of injuries, pain, medical and surgical conditions. The treatment is often recommended for a variety of muscular, joint and nerve conditions that may be the result of injury, illness or disability.

Physiotherapists will treat the patient using hands-on techniques. Aside from the included manual treatment, physiotherapists can also use electro medical  treatments, acupuncture and  giving you good advice on how to alter your lifestyle which can reduce the possibility of further muscular pain and joint problems, as well as providing you with exercises to take care of chronic conditions.

Is physiotherapy the same as massage?
Physiotherapy will introduce massage techniques if it is a suitable treatment to aid in a patient’s recovery however; it is more than a massage. Treatments can range from manual therapy which moves the joints, soft tissue mobilisation which would introduce a massage, to acupuncture, exercises and many more.
What problems can physiotherapy help with?
There is a wide variety of health conditions that physiotherapy can aid with, many of these conditions are in relation to the bones and joints, nerves, and soft tissues. Achieve Physiotherapy specialises in the assistance of conditions such as: arthritis; sports injuries; antenatal and postnatal; post operative recovery; back and neck pain; issues with the bones and joints and issues that occure in the occupational/corporate workplace environment.
What does treatment involve?
Upon meeting a physiotherapist, they will initially begin a full assessment and physical examination in order to determine the nature of the patient’s condition, as well as the cause. Following this, the impact of the condition will be reviewed, as will the patient’s medical history to establish, in mutual agreement with the patient’s wishes, which treatment is most suitable and will then compile a tailored treatment programme.
How should I dress?
It is advised that patients wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. Bear in mind that a physiotherapist will need to visually assess a patient regarding posture and movement, and will possibly need to move various areas of the body, thus these areas will need to be visible and assessable. Additionally, when the treatments involve manipulation and massage the site of injury will need to be exposed.
