Here at Angie Robinson Physiotherapy, situated in Cossington, each patient is individually assessed to determine the cause of their reported problems. A treatment plan will be devised during your physiotherapy appointment to help solve any problems.
So, what will you need to take with you on your first visit?
You will need to bring details of your medications and medical history, alongside suitable clothing, with shorts being useful for leg and back problems. During the appointment you will be assessed, this may include being asked to do some exercises. Please allow 30-45 minutes for your initial appointment.
