WHY ARE WE DIFFERENT?

At Rehab Retreats we are continually exploring ways to expand your horizons. This can be new environments, simulations and techniques to ensure that we are always pushing ourselves and our patients to be be their best.

HOW CAN WE HELP YOU?

Like every person, every injury is different.

Your physiotherapist will take you through an extensive assessment process to work out exactly what is going on in your situation. This involves a series of questions and physical tests.

The physio will then work with you to make a plan for your recovery. This will involve some education regarding your body and your injury situation, some advice regarding any modifications you may need to make to your daily activities, and a program of specific exercises to rehabilitate your body.

WHAT IS PHYSIOTHERAPY?

Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession that assesses, diagnoses, treats, and works to prevent disease and disability through physical means. Physiotherapists are experienced in movement patterns, function aim to work in partnership with their patients, assisting them to overcome movement disorders, which may have been present from birth, acquired through accident or injury, or are the result of ageing or life-changing events.

Physiotherapy can help recovery from injury, reduce pain and stiffness, and increase mobility. A physiotherapist can also help you prevent further injury by listening to your needs and working with you to plan the most appropriate treatment for your condition, including setting goals and treatment outcomes.

As first contact practitioners, a doctor's referral is not necessary to see a physiotherapist. Physiotherapists, doctors, and other health professionals will often work as part of a team to plan and manage treatment for a specific condition.

Physiotherapy courses vary across the country and entry may be through a bachelor, masters or professional doctorate program. Physiotherapists are required by law to be registered with the appropriate bodies in the countries in which they practice.
