Your first appointment in Borehamwood
- We listen first: your physio asks about your symptoms, your health and what you want to get back to doing.
- A proper hands-on assessment: we look for the cause of your pain, not just where it hurts.
- A clear plan: you leave knowing what's wrong, how many sessions you're likely to need and what you can do at home.
- Treatment usually starts that day: hands-on treatment, exercise rehab, taping or shockwave therapy, depending on what you need.
You don't need a GP referral. If you're using health insurance, bring your authorisation number and we'll deal with your insurer for you.
