Your initial consultation is all about understanding you. We will start with a detailed discussion of your medical history and symptoms, followed by a physical assessment of your movement, strength, and flexibility. We usually provide your first treatment in this same session and create a personalized recovery plan.

Every body is different. After your first assessment, your therapist will give you an estimated timeline based on the nature of your injury and your personal goals. Some acute issues resolve in 3–5 sessions, while chronic conditions or post-surgical rehab may require a longer-term plan.

Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows you to move easily. If we are treating a lower limb (knee, ankle, hip), shorts are ideal. For neck or shoulder issues, a tank top or loose t-shirt works best so we can easily assess the area.

Our goal is to reduce your pain, not increase it. While some manual therapy techniques or new exercises might cause mild “good” soreness (similar to a workout), we always work within your pain tolerance. Communication is key—we want you to feel safe and comfortable throughout.

Typically, an initial assessment lasts between 45 to 60 minutes to allow for a deep dive into your case. Follow-up treatment sessions are usually 30 to 45 minutes, depending on your specific treatment plan.
