    Assessment

    A thorough comprehensive assessment to evaluate the problem quickly. It is not dependant on expensive tests and invasive procedures.

    Treatment

    A series of individualized exercises and advice is then given, based on assessment findings. The emphasis is on active patient involvement and self management. Advanced hands on techniques are administered when necessary.

    Prevention

    Patients are given the knowledge to minimise risk of recurrence and to deal with an onset of symptoms in the future if they should occur.

    Acute and chronic conditions are suitable for assessment and treatment.
