Online surf specific Sports Physiotherapy VIDEO Consultations
If you have had a shoulder, back, neck or leg injury that just isn't getting better, even though you have seen multiple health practitioners or a doctor, then an online surf specific online physiotherapy video telehealth consultation is just for you.
If all you have done to fix your injury is some simple stretches, plus a bit of massage, there is so much more that you can, and should be doing, in order to help yourself get back in the water surfing freely again.
How does an Online Surf Sports Physiotherapy TELEHEALTH Consultation work?
Really easily!
Once a time is booked, you will receive an email link which you can simply click at the time of your session and you're live. Your session is secure as our software passes all privacy healthcare standards for Australia, Europe, United States and the UK, and your information is private and never shared with a 3rd party.
You don't need to download any software for the consultation. (We don't use zoom etc, as it isn't secure enough for health consultation regulations)
Over the course of your consultation, you will be questioned about the nature of your injury and how it impacts your surfing, work and day to day life. You will have an opportunity to also ask your surf physiotherapist relevant questions, and we will discuss any recent or previous scans you may have had.
A physical examination is then performed, where we will watch you move, bend twist and perform specific tests so that we can determine what your diagnosis is, and more importantly, what we're going to do about it, to fix your issue once and for all.
Following the assessment, you will be given clear instructions on what needs to happen next and which specific rehabilitation strengthening exercises you need to do.
You will receive access to our exercise app, which will have your bespoke program.

This allows you to start to work on your specific strengthening exercises, and to make sure you are doing them correctly.
At your second consult, its an opportunity for you to ask further questions, and then for your surf physiotherapist to progress your rehabilitation to the next stage.
Your physiotherapist will give you an indication of how many sessions will be required, based on your specific injury and assessment.
WHAT IF I NEED SCANS?
If you are based in Australia, we can order X-rays, Ultrasounds and MRIs for you, and email you the referral slip.
If you are based outside of Australia, we can write a referral letter to your health practitioner and give them guidance on the appropriate scan.
We will be able to discuss your scan results with you.
