In a nutshell, you will book in with one of our interventional physiotherapist.

On the first visit, you can expect our interventional physiotherapists

1. assess and learn about your condition

2. treatment, treatment, treatment

3. right of the bat, treatment will be given on the first visit.

4. They will be treatment appropriate to your condition at the stage of recovery

5. Be prepared you can expect more than one treatment approach to be recommended and given if they are appropriate to be used together

You will understand you condition and the recovery timeframe. You will also be informed about the level of recovery that we are working towards

It is reasonable to expect some condition we can bring back to 100%, but some we can't.

This is the conversation you are going to have with our interventional physio. To answer the questions what is the reasonable expectation, how long will it take, what treatment will be required and what is the plan at each stage of recovery.

Often immediately.

Of course it depends on the conditions. Over 80% of our clients feel immediate relieve of their symptoms walking of of our treatment rooms.

Overall recovery timeframe does vary. However, our goals is to show noticeable changes in symptoms within 2 weeks and functional changes within the first 6-12 weeks.

Some client stops their visit at this stage. And it is absolutely acceptable. You should feel that you can do the things you need or love without much issues. Almost returning to pre-injury/flare up level now.

After this, it is about injury prevention and getting to the "root cause" of the issue. We refer this to stage 3 and 4 recovery. It is about how we can reduce the risk of flare up or reinjury in the future.

Let say you have a had a lower back pain for 20 years. We can admit that we can't 100% cure it in just 6-12 weeks.

So, what we do is we spend time and effort in stage 3 and 4 to reduce the frequency of flare up (say every half year from every month), level of pain each flare up (say self manageable pain from debilitating 10/10 pain) and ease of flare up (just bending down VS after painting the whole house in a weekend).

I would say roughly 50% of our clients continue on their journey to stage 3 and 4.

The rest would have a very good run until their next flare up. And then we fix them up so they can function again.

No. Although it is common to that client see us for help after many rounds of failed treatment, we do see a number of conditions that they never seen anyone before.

Either ways, clients tends to stay with us because they can see better results

Yes! We encourage you bring along you loved ones or someone you trust.

One they become your moral support (who likes to see a doctor let alone physio), but it also help us touching more lives, showcasing what we can do to help.

Often times we end up seeing all your siblings and cousins because they see the results!

Not going to lie, it is a process that you and our physio go through together.

It will depends on the goals that you set with your interventional physio.

For common conditions, like chronic lower back pain, it is often we see immediate symptoms relieve (but we are physios we like to talk conservatively, so say it takes up to 2 weeks to see noticeable changes in symptoms). Clients would feel improvement in pain. They can do more in the daily life. Pain is less irritable and not as easily aggravated.

Some client will stop treatment at this stage. Roughly after 4 -5 sessions.

Some client stops their visit at this stage. And it is absolutely acceptable. You should feel that you can do the things you need or love without much issues. Almost returning to pre-injury/flare up level now.

I would say roughly 50% of our clients continue on their journey to stage 3 and 4. It's often a 2x weekly sessions for the first few weeks and then a 1x weekly/fortnight visit. So say it 12 - 20 sessions over the span of 12 weeks.

The rest would have a very good run until their next flare up. And then we fix them up so they can function again.

Our team of interventional physio treats painful musculoskeletal problems from headaches to hands issues, back pain, plantar fasciitis and anything in between. 

Our interventional physios are supported by senior staff, who treats and manages complex presentations, such as multi-area, widespread pain pattern, complex region pain syndrome and fibromyalgia.  

If you are in doubt if we can help you, we encourage you to start a conversation with our senior physio by clicking on the live chat button. We will understand your conditions and point you to the right direction. 

Great! That means you are serious about your health and recovery. And clearly you are hitting a bottleneck that’s why you are reading this. 

This is exactly our expertise. Clients move away from their past physiotherapist to us because they don’t see the outcome they expected. 

The price of Physiotherapy sessions depends on the clinic, types of referrals (if any), private health insurance and funding body (if any). If you would like more accurate appointment fee, please talk to us on the live chat.

A general physio focuses on rehabilitation and exercise prescription. Generally little or no hands on or equipment therapy will be provided as part of an appointment. 

Interventional physio emphasises on treatments. We provide outcome focused therapy which aim to reduce pain, improve range of movement and function. We provide hands on therapy along with equipment and technologies. You can expect symptoms reduces quicker and return to work/sport/things you love faster.
