MYTH: “I need a scan before I see a physio.”
Not necessarily! For many common aches, pains and injuries, a physiotherapist can assess you without you needing to have a scan or GP referral first.
We’ll talk through what you’re experiencing, look at how you move, assess the affected area and use our clinical expertise to work out what may be causing your symptoms and how best to help. If we feel that further investigation or a scan would be useful, we can advise you on the next steps.
So if you’re putting off booking because you think you need a scan first, you may not need one at all.
