X EXERCISE PRESCRIPTION

Here at X Physio we are experts at exercise prescription. This involves creating a particular plan of physical activity that will achieve the specific needs or goals of the patient.

When considering the traditional physiotherapy model, a physiotherapist will often prescribe an exercise program to be done unsupervised within a gym or at home. With many years of experience, we have found that this does not work. The majority of patients rarely do their exercises and for the remaining patients who do, the exercises are not done correctly. At X Physio, we encourage all patients to perform their exercise program whilst being supervised by one of our practitioners to ensure the goals will be achieved. We do this until we feel confident you can self manage. Think of it this way, if your doctor prescribed a medication to fix an ailment, and if that medication wasn’t the right dose, or type, then it doesn’t work. This is exactly the same concept when it comes to exercise prescription. Exercise prescription is an art, and we have therapists, and clinical coordinators that have a huge amount of experience with this. We are different, and we have exercise physiology training as well.

Further to this, you need to have the right equipment. X Physio is based within a commercial gym with all the necessary equipment to perform any rehab exercise. With full use of the gym, you will be pressed to find any physiotherapy clinic with better, or more extensive facilities than we do. Without the right tools, you can’t get the job done. We have all the tools necessary for a fully comprehensive rehabilitation.
