IN-PERSON PHYSIOTHERAPY PRICES
All Assessments Conducted at Our Gym in Edinburgh (Leith)
IN-PERSON PHYSIOTHERAPY
WHAT TO EXPECT
First we will discuss your Pain/ Injury and produce a detailed history of the problem, how this is affecting you and discuss your goals and what you wish to get back to/ achieve with the help of Physiotherapy
We will then go through a routine Physiotherapy assessment specific to the area and potential areas the pain/ injury is coming from to identify the exact problem that you are having, this assessment will be informed by the history we discussed initially.
If Required- a full Strength and Conditioning/ Sport Specific based assessment will be conducted. This part of the assessment gets you in the Gym and tests you at a higher level of performance to identify any sport specific issues that may only affect you when performing sport specific tasks or when pushing yourself through sport or exercise. The process is underpinned with Physiotherapy Knowledge but taken up a level to help to identify any issues you may be having when performing at higher levels.
A discussion will take place which will inform you exactly what the problem is, how to fix it, recovery timeframes and if needed- how to continue to exercise or work around the issue.
A plan detailing the issue and what was discussed/ found during our assessment with a Individualised Plan showing how to fix the problem will be sent to you
WHERE WILL MY APPOINTMENT BE?
Your appointment will take place in Cast-Iron Strength Gym. I am fully geared up for properly assessing Sport- Injuries and my environment reflects this. You will be assessed in the Gym, don't expect a regular Physiotherapy Clinic that only has a few resistance bands, yoga mats and 2kg Dumbbells, you will be surrounded by Barbells, Squat Racks and Weight Plates with all the Strength and Conditioning based equipment you could need.
​
The way I see it-
Regular Physiotherapist= Works from Clinic
Sports Physiotherapist= Works from Gym
​
The Gym is Located in Leith in Edinburgh in the Swanfield Industrial Estate Just opposite Leith Community Treatment Centre
DO YOU SEE NON-SPORTING INJURIES
Yes, Absolutely. I trained within the NHS initially and am very Experienced with Non-Sporting Populations also. I also see non-Sporting populations/ Injuries regularly at Cast Iron Rehab and am more than happy to help. A regular physiotherapy assessment is at the core of all Assessments I do, we do not need to do the sport- specific gym based stuff if it does not fit in with your goals. However all my assessments will still take place within Cast Iron Strength Gym and I do take an active exercise based rehabilitation approach with all my clients.
DO YOU DO MASSAGE, ACUPUNCTURE OR ANY KIND OF PASSIVE THERAPY?
No I run a sports injury clinic not a spa, Many of these spa based type treatments have a poor evidence base and many of the benefits are hugely overstated. These sort of treatments provide short term pain relief benefits only and my goal is to get to the heart of your issue and make myself irrelevant as quickly as possible, and to get you pain free long-term and to stop the pain from coming back. My goal is not to sell you one side fits all spa treatments with temporary effects that you need to keep booking in for to sustain. I am here to fix your issue not sell you quick fixes with temporary results.
​
CAN MY INSURANCE PAY?
It depends on your Policy, I can send you an invoice and some Insurance Providers will accept this and allow you to claim the money back from them. However, I have not signed up with any Insurance Company to accept their referrals so cannot take any insurance policy numbers as payment.
