First Visit

At Queenston Physiotherapy & Wellness, we want your first visit to be a comfortable and educational experience. We start by getting to know you, your relevant medical history, and your current health status and lifestyle, and we work together with you to create a treatment plan that meets you where you are and provides the support you need to achieve your goals. This is some of what to expect upon arriving for your initial consultation:

Warm Welcome and Paperwork

We will greet you upon arrival and check you in with a few brief forms. We will provide you with a few forms to fill out that will allow us to obtain important information about your medical history, current symptoms, and any treatments you have previously received. They may also collect information about your lifestyle and physical activity levels to help them develop a tailored treatment plan for you.

Comprehensive Evaluation

After you complete the required paperwork, you will meet with one of our qualified physiotherapists. This will start with a comprehensive assessment, which entails reviewing your medical history and any specific treatment goals or concerns you may have. This is your opportunity to ask any questions you have about the process or treatment options that may be available.

The physiotherapist will also likely use several techniques to assess your posture, movement, flexibility, and strength. These may include physical exams, palpation (sensing areas of the body for tenderness or tightness), and functional movements to identify what needs the most attention.

Personalized Treatment Plan

Your physiotherapist will discuss their assessment findings and a treatment plan based on your particular condition and goals. This might involve physical therapy or specific exercises, stretches, manual therapy, or even some medicine, depending on the individual needs of your body. The physiotherapist will ensure the treatment plan and the next steps are clear to you.

Your first visit is an opportunity to explore your individual needs with us and for us to work toward your optimal health ultimately. But you are not alone; at Queenston Physiotherapy & Wellness, we’re here to support you on every level. We’re excited to team with you on your journey to healing and health!
