Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly will I see results?
Many clients notice improvements in pain, mobility, and strength after just a few sessions. However, depending on the severity of the injury or condition, a series of treatments may be necessary for full recovery.
Your therapist will be happy to discuss a treatment plan with you at your initial consultation.
Do I need to be injured to see a sports physiotherapist?
No, sports physiotherapy is beneficial for injury prevention, improving performance, and correcting movement patterns, even if you are not currently injured.
We always recommend booking in for a follow-up treatment within 1-2 weeks after your initial appointment to review progress. We will then discuss if any further sessions may be beneficial.
Most conditions can be treated within 4-6 sessions, although if your condition is chronic, or if you are highly active and in competition or working in a physically demanding job, you may want to consider regular maintenance treatments every 6-12 weeks.
Can I continue exercising during treatment?
Your physiotherapist will guide you on which activities to avoid and may recommend modifications to your routine. You will also receive specific exercises to aid recovery.
What other services should I consider?
You may want to consider booking in for a Full Body MOT.
Our Full Body MOT is a comprehensive review of your overall physical health and mobility. It is comprised of:
– Full Body Mobility Assessment: We’ll assess your body’s range of motion to pinpoint any areas of stiffness that may be limiting your flexibility.
– Postural Assessment: Our therapists will evaluate your posture to identify imbalances that could be contributing to your back, neck, or joint pain.
– Muscle Strength Testing: We’ll conduct muscle strength tests to find weak areas that may be causing muscle tightness, back pain, or joint discomfort.
Treatment Options Included
– Massage Therapy: We offer a range of massages—from deep tissue for muscle recovery to relaxation techniques. These treatments target muscle tension and help alleviate stress, leaving you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.
– Manual Therapy & Osteopathic Joint Mobilisations: Our experts will use hands-on techniques to restore proper joint movement, helping to relieve stiffness, neck pain, lower back discomfort, and improve overall joint function.
– Personalised Exercises & Stretches: Your Full Body MOT includes a tailored set of exercises and stretches designed by our personal trainers and physiotherapists. These are targeted at strengthening weak muscles and improving overall flexibility and mobility, ensuring you stay active and strong throughout the winter.
Can I claim physiotherapy sessions through my private health insurance?
In most cases, yes. We work with a number of leading health insurers including:
We always advise to contact your insurer for pre-approval before commencing treatment with us.
What happens if I need a scan? Or if I need to undergo surgery following an injury?
If we feel that you would benefit from further diagnostic tests or support from a specialist consultant, we can arrange for a private referral to a specialist for further care. We work closely with Ross Hall Hospital to co-ordinate your ongoing healthcare plan. Post surgery, we will be able to review your condition with your specialist to plan ongoing rehabilitation and recovery.
Client Testimonials
“Working with Neyomi was a great experience. She listened to my needs and her encouragement helped me feel confident to return to training after twisting my ankle during a match. The exercises have been great and really easy using the app to show me what to do”
— James W.
“I can’t thank Marc and the MD Therapy physio team enough for their support during my rehabilitation. They really took the time to understand what was going on with my back after a bad scrum tackle left me almost unable to walk. Not only did they help get to the bottom of my back pain but also kept me motivated every time I came in for a session, there were days I was feeling really down cause I just thought I’d never feel ready to play again. But it’s great to be playing rugby again after just 4 months off!” — Chris J.
“I would never have considered sports physio for my back after I started feeling really stiff getting out of the car and finding it really hard to get a good night’s sleep. But a friend at work said I should see MD Therapy and they’ve been great. Can’t believe the improvement in only a few sessions. Already feeling better and no pain sitting at my desk! Marc is amazing at his job! Thank you!”
— Michael B.
