What to expect from a visit to the physiotherapist?

Almost all doctors refer patients with spine disorders to physiotherapists’ conservative care in preference to other health practitioners. When you visit a physiotherapist for the first time, you will probably be asked for a general medical history and a case history. A physical examination, blood pressure and other diagnostic procedures may be considered necessary.

Depending upon the cause and type of pain, physiotherapists treat in a variety of spinal manipulations, McKenzie method, promoting early activity, specific stabilization exercises, spinal traction, as well as deep friction massage, laser, magnet therapy and ultrasound may be used to ease your pain.
