Although we can not assess you with our hands, our experience and expertise allows us to see faulty movement patterns and detect other tricks just by watching you move in front of the camera. We will ask specific questions to confirm our working diagnosis and we may ask you do to a few assessments during the consults at home, so we can get a better idea of how you are moving, and what the problem areas are, to help guide our treatments.
Why online consultations work:
- We help you set goals set you goals. We help you to identify the difference between common and normal, and how to get back to normality after a life even like having a baby or a surgery where we need to make the most of the acute period when the body is in healing overdrive!
- Planning exercise and activity to prevent long term problems and potential surgery down the track.
- Demonstrating and teaching self treatment techniques and self release exercises to you
- Providing advice about lifestyle changes that can be made to help improve symptoms
- Having someone to ask your questions, someone who is on your team to help you get dry, pain free, strong, and free from problems in the pelvis.
Time to make the first step to a lifetime of freedom from pelvic problems.
