Examination and treatment
During the first appointment, the physiotherapist will create, through a discussion and a consequent examination, a complete picture of your physical health problem.
Based on this, the physiotherapist, together with you, will create a treatment plan.
Each complaint is different and each person reacts differently to his or her symptoms.
Exercises are the core part of treatment. This is intended to influence the movement possibilities of joints, and to increase muscle strength. Other objectives may be: to learn better posture, achieve better balance and stability, better breathing technique and learning to relax.
There are always exercises taught for at home, tailored to your situation and options. It is important that you become aware of what the best way is to move, and gain confidence in your body. For support, the physiotherapist may apply a massage and apply physical therapy.
