Why choose physiotherapy telehealth?
Clients have many reasons for choosing a telehealth physiotherapist, rather than travelling to a clinic. Telehealth physiotherapy usually provides much of the same services as one would receive by travelling to an external clinic.
Patients who may choose to have an physiotherapist appointment via telehealth include those who are advanced in age, or have mobility issues. Increasingly these patients are maintaining their independence by being able to stay in their homes longer by utilising mobile physiotherapy telehealth.
What ever the reason may be, Telehealth Services Australia will make the process of finding a local, independent, physiotherapist that provides telehealth serices quick and easy.
What does a Telehealth consultation from a physiotherapist entail?
An physiotherapist is a practitioner who helps in the treatment of injury, disease and disorders through exercise, massage, manipulation and other treatments to improve your movement, reduce your pain and stiffness, speed up your healing process and increase your overall quality of life.
When an physiotherapist provides a telehealth service, they may perform an assessment and diagnosis of the patient’s concern and provide some self managed advice. They will then assess and provide some activity modification and a home exercise program so that the patient is able to self improve in the comfort of their own home. A full treatment plan for the patients individual needs would then be provided by the physiotherapist all through telehealth.
Further follow up telehealth appointments may be needed so the patient and their physiotherapist are able to monitor the patients progress.
What Physiotherapy treatments are usually covered?
A physiotherapist is able to provide a very diverse range of treatments over telehealth. Although they are not able to offer a hands on service, with a thorough assessment and the correct diagnosis a physiotherapist over telehealth will be able to put together an individually targeted rehabilitation plan.
It is important that you confirm with your therapist which treatments they provide.
