While some physiotherapists insist that their patients go through the hassle of an actual clinic visit, just to be told “rest and use a heat pack”, we feel that in such situations, patients should not need to waste their time and money.
That is why we prefer if you could give us a call for a short phone based review with our physiotherapist, before making an appointment to see us, just in case we can help you save some time and money through a simple phone call.
Call 67355368 to speak to our physiotherapists now.
Or you can request a call back from our physiotherapists.

Or if you start to notice the following ‘red flag’ symptoms which may indicate possible SERIOUS pathology than just a common musculoskeletal condition:
- Pain results from fall, accidents, sudden impact, lifting heavy objects
- Muscle weakness or decreased muscle bulk
- Fever and unexplained weight loss
- Bladder or bowel dysfunction
- Progressive neurological deficit (Eg numbness, tingling down arms or legs)
- Constant night pain
- Unable to sleep
- Age of onset <20 years or >55 years
- History of cancer
- Ill health or presence of other medical illness
- Disturbed gait, saddle anaesthesia
If red flag signs are present, we will strongly advise you to seek immediate attention from your doctor or physiotherapist and to rest and to avoid physical activity.
If no red flags are present, we may possible reassure you that there are no indications of serious spinal pathology. However, your recovery success will be dependent on how fast you take action to treat your pain. The longer you delay seeking treatment, the longer you takes to recover.
A full recovery from this pain episode is likely if you seek our treatment early to stop the pain and repair injured tissues. We urge you to take action now and speak to our physiotherapist about your pain condition. Call today at 67355368.
Don’t torture yourself another day with your pain!

Your doctor or physiotherapist may reasons out why you need to order an MRI.
Some indications may include: Back pain , neck pain, recent spine or joint injury, headaches , dizziness, knee pain or pelvic pain. MRI may also find a bone fracture when X-rays and other tests do not present a clear-cut answer. Muscles, ligaments, cartilage, nerve and other joint structures are often best seen with an MRI. In many cases, MRI gives clear detailed information about structures in the body that cannot be seen as well with an X-ray, ultrasound, or CT scan. No other kind of imaging can give the high level of detail that an MRI can. However, sometimes the investigations may not directly correlate with the representations of the patient’s condition.
What happens during the MRI process?
During the MRI exam, you will be lying down on a firm table. The technologist will place you on the table and then move the table to the center of the MRI machine. The interior of the machine is like a giant tunnel that is well lit and open on each end. This enclosed tunnel like MRI may triggers off some emotional phobia especially people who are afraid of alone in a dark enclosed area. The MRI makes a loud knocking noise while taking the image. For your comfort, you will be given earplugs or ear phones to listen to music during the exam. You are not allowed to move during the MRI scanning proccess. Some patients are uncomfortable lying still for half hour and it may aggravate or worsen the pain. The test takes approximately half hour to one hour.
An MRI is only a diagnostic tool, not a treatment.
An MRI gives some people peace of mind, but will do nothing to change the symptoms of your condition. Many people say “I need an MRI because it still hurts.” Keep in mind, the problem does not change because an MRI is done. After the MRI is done, the pain level will still be the same. It is true that an MRI may help guide which is the best course of treatments to be effective.
If you think you need an MRI, ask your physiotherapist or doctor. He or she should be able to explain to you why you do, or don’t, need an MRI.
We have treated many cases successfully to a full recovery without a need of going through an MRI or X-ray and save you the money worth spending to see a physiotherapist first.
