Welcome to Empower Physiotherapy, where our dedicated team is committed to providing thorough and individualized physiotherapy assessments aimed at understanding your unique needs and guiding you towards optimal health and function.

Purpose of a Physiotherapy Assessment:

The primary purpose of a physiotherapy assessment at is to gain an understanding of your musculoskeletal health, identify any areas of concern, and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing a chronic condition, or seeking preventative care, our assessments are designed to empower you on your journey to wellness.

What to Expect from a Physiotherapy Assessment:

During your physiotherapy assessment, you can expect a detailed and patient-focused examination conducted by our skilled physiotherapists. The assessment process involves:

1. Patient History: We begin by discussing your medical history, current symptoms, and any relevant lifestyle factors. This information helps us understand the context of your condition and potential contributing factors.

2. Physical Examination: A thorough physical examination follows, evaluating aspects such as joint range of motion, muscle strength, muscle palpation and posture. Our goal is to identify any areas of dysfunction and develop a clear picture of your musculoskeletal health.

3. Functional Assessment: Functional assessments involve observing your movements and identifying any limitations or compensations. This allows us to tailor your treatment plan to address specific functional goals.

4. Diagnostic Tests: In some cases, diagnostic tests such as imaging may be recommended to provide a more detailed understanding of your condition.

5. Treatment Plan: Following your assessment, we will develop a plan for follow up tailored to your specific needs and goals. This will depend on your injury, funding stream, and often includes multiple treatment options. 

Duration of Assessment

An assessment typically ranges from 60 to 75 minutes. This extended time frame ensures that our team has the opportunity to conduct a thorough evaluation and discuss findings with you in detail.
