Virtual physio treatment session: Your guide.

Virtual physiotherapy sessions: how, why, what do I need to do? So many questions, I can answer them to make it easier for you :-)

Virtual sessions have their limitation and are not suited for all cases. They are useful, however, in ensuring continuous progress and improving function.

I advise virtual appointments in case of:  

• Acute musculoskeletal injuries like an ankle sprain, back pain or pelvic pain with or without radiation

• Sports-related injuries e.g. from running or biking

• Lifestyle-related discomforts like pain with lifting, standing, walking, cleaning or gardening ( soon we will be able to clean our gardens) 

• Work-related discomforts associated with your not-so ergonomic space at home

• Pelvic floor dysfunctions like pain and incontinence in women

Over an interactive video session, I should be able to:

• Assess any new pain or discomfort with complete history, range of motion, strength and functional assessment.

• Educate you about the condition and treatment.

• Assess posture and movement to suggest some stretches, strength and self-release techniques.  

• Plan exercise progression of your already existing exercise program.

• Correct form for already prescribed exercises with the help of verbal cues.
