Frequently Asked Questions

What to Expect   

Your first appointment may last for up to an hour and will usually include some treatment. We will also ask you to complete standardised forms regarding your health, pain, beliefs and how your current condition affects your daily life. In this way, we can accurately chart your progress through treatment. Such forms are also a requirement of our governing bodies and insurance companies. Paperwork can be an inconvenience but it does help us deliver the best care for you. 

We always start with the same procedure: talking. We allow plenty of time for you to describe your symptoms or performance goals, allowing us in turn time to listen and thoroughly assess you before progressing. We believe the more time we take at the initial stage, the more effective we can be in helping you to reach your goals faster and easier. 

We have the same approach for every client: 

  • Assessment 
  • Diagnosis 
  • Treatment 
  • Result 

What Should I Wear?  

You should wear suitable clothing: for example, we recommend wearing shorts if you have a leg or back injury. We also suggest that ladies wear a vest top/sports bra for neck/shoulder injuries. If you are attending our Sports Clinic, it is best to bring your usual sporting clothing and trainers. For Orthotics bring a selection of your most worn footwear.

 

Short Notice Cancellation/Missed Appointment Policy 

Our goal is to provide a high quality and effective physiotherapy service in a timely manner. The right treatment; at the right time; to maximise your recovery. You will be aware that we are a busy clinic and appointments are often in high demand. We politely request you give us at least 24 hours notice for appointment rescheduling so it will allow another client to have treatment sooner. For those wishing to cancel an appointment on a Monday, notification must be given on the previous Friday. If you do not attend, or cancel a pre-booked appointment with less than 24 hours notice, we reserve the right to charge you directly, a fee of £40. If you are insured, this fee cannot be charged to your insurance company. We understand that things crop up in people's lives that are unexpected. While truly sympathetic, we cannot absorb the financial responsibility of last minute cancellations or missed appointments.

The Shrewsbury Physiotherapy & Orthotics Clinic are registered with all major insurance providers. Your policy exists between you and your insurance company. Should your insurance company require a written GP referral, please ensure that this is obtained and forwarded prior to treatment as, without it, you will be liable to pay all costs in relation to your treatment.

responsibility to ensure that your treatments are pre-authorised as treatment started prior to this may not be covered by your insurance company. In the event that you do not provide us with your insurance details, we politely request that you settle the fee in full at the end of your appointment.
