WHAT TO EXPECT IN AN INITIAL CONSULT?
Please arrive 5 mins prior to your consultation. Please bring with you any X-rays or further imaging you have acquired in the past, along with a list of any long term medication, or important information regarding your past long term medical history.
We provide full covering treatment gowns however we understand that some people are sensitive to disrobing. Please inform the practitioner at anytime if you feel uncomfortable, we often can treat through loose clothing, leggings, bike pants etc.
Please Note: Our clinic has a 24hour cancellation policy. At least 24 hours would be appreciated to cancel or change an appointment time. When we agree on an appointment we make a commitment to set aside time for one another. If you do not show up it does not alter our commitment and the time we have set aside for you. We reserve the right to invoice you for any missed appointments or when no notice or insufficient notice is received. Similarly we undertake to give 24 hours notice should we need to reschedule an appointment with you.
Our Guarantee to You.
We believe in quality of service, and complete satisfaction with your diagnosis and treatment. We are so confident in our abilities that should you be in any way unsatisfied with the quality of your treatment session provided by one of our Therapists, please contact Kurt at info@toowoonbayosteopathy.com if you have any queries.
At Toowoon Bay Osteopathy and Dry Needling we believe the basis of all good treatment is the diagnosis. On your initial consult we will take the time to adequately gain an understanding as to your presenting complaint, the history of your complaint and history of your general health.
The practitioner will then conduct a thorough structural analysis and diagnosis. We will then explain the main causes of your presenting complaint as to give you greater understanding of your diagnosis, the contributing factors, and education for minimising the effects of your condition.
In all initial consults the practitioner will ask for your Informed Consent before treating you, and will always describe the use of all techniques and reasons behind the use of different techniques.
