Your Initial Appointment
Surfcoast Remedial Massage & Myotherapy Torquay uses this critically important time, to assess what your cause of pain is, and discuss how it can be treated.
History taking, orthopedic assessments and testing, Range-Of-Movement analysis and other techniques are discuss with the patient and then used to assess true mobility and the many causes of pain.
​
It is important this process is followed so we can determine a clinical impression (causes of your presenting injury or pain).
Common causes of pain (acute and chronic stages) are typically divided into
3 main categories:
Dermatome or Myotome pain
Neuropathic (Nervous/Spinal related) pain
Musculoskeletal or Joint related pain
​
All acute-based injuries require a short time frame for the nervous system to respond and to allow healing of the injury.
This typically involves rest and cold therapy.
​
As part of all treatments, a thorough treatment plan is discussed first before any therapy is provided.
