Online physiotherapy consultation

Travelling in person to see a physiotherapist isn’t always practical, which is why we are pleased to offer remote video consultations.

Remote physiotherapy allows you to access our team’s expertise from the comfort of your own home.

These consultations are designed to empower and equip you with the right knowledge to manage your condition.

Using the latest technology, and with software from Physiotec, we provide you with the best tools, advice, and strategies to recover from your injury.

“With the current covid 19 restrictions and my urgent need for physio I booked in with Jakub at W6 Physiotherapy for remote physio. It has far surpassed my expectation and has been very effective. Having had so much success with it, I would certainly use the remote service even out of lockdown as a convenient way to get physio help from the comfort of my own home.” Catherine

Consultation Structure:

1. We listen to you as you describe your health, your injury and the limitations this causes you.
2. We investigate. This may include posture screening or asking you to demonstrate a particular movement in order to evaluate your strength and level of function.
3. We advise. Based on the information gathered, we help you optimise your recovery with a personalised home exercise program. Detailed instructions will also be sent to you via email after the session, with images and videos to guide you.
4. We follow up with another video consultation to monitor your progress.

A remote consultation is treated like any other type of consultation: any sensitive or confidential information is kept secure at all times. We take every possible step to reduce any risks that may impact on your confidentiality, and ensure the privacy of your data. We confirm that any devices we use to contact you and conduct any remote consultations on, are used only by your treating physiotherapist, have the appropriate antivirus and antispyware software installed, and are accessed via a password known only by your physiotherapist.

The consultation will not be digitally recorded, but any clinical outcomes from the consultation will be recorded and added to your record.

By accepting the invite and participating in the remote consultation, you are giving your consent to the consultation as outlined above.

To confirm your identity, prior to the consultation you will be asked for your date of birth and your postcode. We will use this information to check that the details match your information entered during the initial booking process.

Video consultations are securely encrypted. However, it is your responsibility to ensure that you have adequate anti-spyware and anti-virus protection installed on the device(s) you use for your remote consultation with us.

If you are using your mobile phone (or other device using a mobile network) for your consultation, please be aware that it can only be as secure as any other form of communication on that mobile network.

If there are other people in the room with you who may see and/or hear the consultation, you must give your consent for us to conduct the consultation with those other people present.
