What you need to know about us
The physiotherapists at Adelaide West Physio and Pilates are carefully handpicked not just for their physiotherapy skills.
They are also chosen for their people skills and their unswerving passion for helping each person they see!
Each of our current staff of physios is Adelaide-trained, which means they have a solid background in manual ‘hands-on’ treatment.
Our number one priority is the person that we are treating. You will never be left on a machine while we are treating someone else. At Adelaide West Physio and Pilates, our undivided attention is on you and no one else.
We are not a physio practice that uses electrotherapy machines. In fact we abhor the unnecessary use of electrotherapy by any health professional. Electrotherapy is largely unsupported in the scientific literature except in a few specific applications.
Our physiotherapy continuing education is a priority. You know you are getting the most up-to-date treatments which get you back to what you love faster! We have one hour continuing education sessions scheduled twice each week.
This amount of continuing education and collaboration sets us apart from other health care practices.
We make sure that you understand what is going on.
We carefully explain everything during your physiotherapy consultation plus provide you with a written treatment plan that includes:
- what is wrong
- what we can do to help you
- what you can do to help yourself and
- how long it will take to get better, including how many treatment sessions it is likely to take to get to your best
Fully understanding your problem is the key to helping you the fastest and allowing you to help yourself as much as possible.
