Every problem needs a different approach. Together with the patient we not only investigate the diagnosis but also search for the root of the problem. Treating the symptoms can help alleviate pain and regain function but to avoid the problem coming back long term it is equally essential to treat the cause.
‘Evidence Based Medicine’ (EBM) is “the conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients”. EBM allows us to base the choice of our assessment and treatment methods on scientific research. A Masters degree in physiotherapy means we have a thorough scientific and academic background allowing us to incorporate EBM in every aspect of our treatment.
At Kinesiology Physiotherapy we not only focus on the problem at hand but also on the physical, psychological and social impact it has on the person. Every person needs to be approached individually as per the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) model of the World Health Organisation (WHO). The different aspects of the ICF model demonstrate how two patients with the same exact disorder can have very differing impacts in their lives, with different limitations and restriction. Our physiotherapists assess each patient individually with the effect of the pathology to the patient’s life as important as the pathology itself.
