Recently I had a client ask if I could give a second opinion on a diagnosis.
As Remedial Therapists we aren’t medically trained to diagnose.
Only doctors, osteopaths, physiotherapists or chiropractors can diagnose a health condition.
However, we are trained to identify symptoms of commonly occurring pain issues, structural and muscular testing, identify health conditions that we can’t support you and will refer to the right specialist, and how to best support you to manage your symptoms, including suitable movement and exercises.
Some therapists may have particular areas of interest but for the most part we all have the skills to help you with your musculoskeletal system.
Some common discomfort or pains I have supported clients either to manage or reduce tension:
- Sciatica
- Piriformis Syndrome
- Headaches/Migraines
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Sore shoulders
- Everyday low back discomfort/low level pain
- Pregnancy discomfort
- Pelvic Girdle discomfort
- Abdominal Scar Adhesions (CSection, etc)
- Forearm discomfort
And so much more.
I am here to help you feel more ease in your body. The intention is to support your body to self heal. Tension isn’t bad, it’s telling us something, or holding parts of our body together in the way it knows.
Our bodies are intelligent!
