Physio FX Client Experience

Arrive Prepared!

At your Initial Physiotherapy visit, you will have a scheduled appointment lasting approximately 60 minutes with a Physiotherapist who will evaluate your condition. The initial evaluation will include a “history” (some questions regarding the condition and your general health), followed by “physical testing” (which involves standard methods of evaluating flexibility, strength, and function of the muscles, joints, and neurological structures involved with your condition).

After the physical testing is complete your Physiotherapist will discuss their evaluation and set out a treatment plan with you. Your plan will include recommended passive treatments that will be performed in our clinic, an introduction to the active component of the treatment plan, and your “homework”. You can expect to receive some treatment, some education, and some homework before you leave our clinic.

At your Initial Massage Therapy visit, you will have a scheduled appointment with one of our  Registered Massage Therapists. Part of your scheduled time will be reserved for the R.M.T’s brief evaluation of any conditions you may be experiencing. Following the assessment, your Massage Therapist will explain how to position yourself on the Massage table, will ask you to undress, and will leave the room for your privacy. Before re-entering, they will knock to ensure that you are prepared, and covered by the top sheet on the table. At the end of your treatment, your Massage Therapist will discuss some stretching options with you, and will remind you to drink lots of water! They will also provide you with their re-booking recommendation or refer you to another Specialist if they feel your condition warrants added attention.

Please note that the time reserved for your appointment includes the time to discuss your session goals with your therapist and the time required to change before and after the hands-on portion of your session.

At your Initial Naturopathic Medicine/Acupuncture visit you will have a scheduled time lasting approximately 90 mins with our Naturopathic Medicine Doctor. There is a short Intake Form to be completed prior to starting the treatment. Your Naturopathic Doctor will discuss your general health any issues you may be experiencing and your goals for your care plan.  A treatment plan will be discussed and you will receive preliminary care all within this first session.

At your Initial Chiropractic visit, you will have a scheduled appointment that will last approximately 60 minutes with a Chiropractor who will evaluate your area of concern. The initial assessment will include a medical history where the Chiropractor will learn about any existing conditions, your general health as well as your main area of concern. Next, the Chiropractor will carry out a physical test/exam (i.e., tests of strength, flexibility and overall functioning), which will help them reach a diagnosis and decide a suitable treatment plan. After the physical test(s), your Chiropractor will discuss their evaluation and the appropriate treatment plan that usually entails passive (i.e., interferential current therapy, ultrasound) and active (i.e., exercises, stretches) treatment. During your initial assessment, you can expect some treatment, client education and homework.
