You are more likely
to continue your exercises if you are able to
see how they fit in to your own environment and
lifestyle. Those clients that rehabilitate well
are always those who have been doing their exercises
away from the clinic.
Many Physiotherapy practices
and gyms don’t have the space required for
successful functional rehabilitation- you do –
Spare room, conservatory, study, hallway, garden,
garage, hotel room, meeting/conference room, sports
club, gym, park, village hall. |
Just had surgery? In too much pain
to leave the house! What about the kids? I need to stay
in for a delivery, I’m awaiting an urgent call,
I don’t have enough time to get to the clinic
and back, traffic’s bad – We all find excuses
or have to cancel clinic visits – let us come
to you and save you the trouble.
What better way to understand and
resolve the causes of postural back, neck and joint
pain than to actually see where and how you work, rest
and play.
Do I have enough
space?
Yes! You would be surprised at how
a little lateral thinking and a lot of specialist portable
equipment enables Physio2You to successfully assess,
treat and train people in their own homes, offices or
place of their choice.
Below are a few guides to the amount
of space required – but don’t worry, if
you don’t have the space we have various venues
near to you – just give us a call.
| |
Verbal
Assessment- |
|
A reasonably quiet
room |
| |
Physical Assessment- |
|
Standing, sitting, lying or moving.
the amount of privacy required depends on you and
which area of the body we are working with.
|
| |
Treatment
Couch- |
|
Minimum space
required =
|
| |
Physio / gym
type exercises- |
|
Minimal space such as a hallway
or centre of a room. |
| |
Sports
Rehabilitation-
|
|
Inside space of minimum 3.7m² (40ft²)
OR garden, garage,
driveway, park – You are going to get hot
and sweaty anyway!

But I already
have a Physiotherapist / Trainer
Physiotherapy isn’t 10minutes
of hands-on treatment and then finish off with a machine
– we believe in full 30min sessions of hands-on
assessment, treatment and/or focussed 1-2-1 rehabilitation.
Training isn’t watching someone
on a machine or carrying out a standardised program
– we believe in functional, specific, effective
and client-focussed training and rehabilitation.
Due to low overheads we don’t
need to cram the diary full of clients or overlap sessions,
we give you as much treatment as we think necessary
on the day.
Most Physio’s charge double
to visit their clients at home, office or elsewhere
– we don’t have clinic overheads and so
pass on the savings to you.
Read my profile, see the equipment
we have available to use, realise the many experiences
and specialties weI have to draw upon – I challenge
you to find a Physiotherapist, Trainer, rehabilitator
or coach who is more committed, focussed or qualified
to make you better.
But I could just join
a gym or class
Contrary to what most ‘lifestyle
healthclubs’ would have you believe, you need
minimal equipment to successfully achieve your health
and fitness goals – in fact you are more likely
to continue long-term and improve in a way that helps
in real-life if you fit exercise into daily life and
use simple principles such as body weight loading, leverage,
proprioception and plyometrics.
Strength and cardio-vascular training
on machines does little to prepare your body for real-life
stresses and strains. In reality most day to day tasks
and activities are multi-directional in nature (flexing,
extending and rotation) and vary in speed, position
and situation. Bin the gym, and train to win!
