90-Minute Initial Assessment

Understanding Your Story, Your Movement and Your Goals

The 90-Minute Initial Assessment is where the real detective work begins.

Pain, injury and movement problems rarely appear overnight, and they're often influenced by factors that go far beyond the area where symptoms are felt. This extended assessment gives me the time and space to properly understand your history, explore your concerns and begin uncovering the root causes of what's holding you back.

Unlike a standard appointment, this is a deep dive into you.

We'll spend time discussing your medical history, previous injuries, lifestyle, work demands, sporting activities, stress levels and any treatments you've had in the past. Just as importantly, we'll explore what you'd like to achieve and what success looks like for you.

From there, I'll carry out a detailed movement assessment, looking at how your body functions as a whole. This may include posture, walking gait, balance, mobility, strength, breathing patterns and movement mechanics to identify compensations, restrictions and areas that may be contributing to your symptoms.

Drawing on my experience in physiotherapy, rehabilitation, NeuroKinetic Therapy®, Anatomy in Motion®, fascial release and performance coaching, my aim is to build a complete picture of how your body is currently working and where improvements can be made.

This session is also about building a relationship.

The better I understand you, your lifestyle and your goals, the more effective the treatment process becomes. Equally, it's an opportunity for you to get to know me, ask questions and understand how I work.

Many people tell me it's the first time they've felt truly listened to.

By the end of the session, you'll have a clearer understanding of:

• What may be contributing to your pain or movement issues
• How your body is compensating and adapting
• Which treatment approaches are most likely to help
• Practical steps you can begin taking immediately
• A personalised plan to help you move forwards

If you've been searching for answers, frustrated by recurring issues or simply want a thorough understanding of your body, this is the best place to start.

My goal isn't simply to treat symptoms.

My goal is to help you understand your body, move with greater confidence and create lasting change.
