Remedial Assessment
Your remedial massage treatment will always begin an assessment and finish with a re-assessment to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment and discuss modifying the treatment plan for next session if necessary.
Assessment time is included in your treatment time (though we do offer a complimentary Initial Consult for your first session – or up to 15 minutes extra free to ensure you get as much hands on time as possible). However rest assured that it is time very well spent as it will ensure we can plan the hands-on portion of the treatment to be much more effective.
A client's complaint is assessed via the most appropriate tests according to the person's situation. Generally your assessment will at minimum include a verbal assessment and postural assessment. It may also include range of motion testing, muscle strength and function testing,neural tests, special orthopedic tests and gait and biomechanical analysis. These tests help identify the most likely cause of pain or injury.
Once the assessment is complete your therapist will happily discuss their findings with you, make a recommendation for treatment plan and number of sessions required for expected outcomes, and gain your consent to proceed with an agreed treatment plan.
