Therapy & Depression


When you are discharged from the hospital you may be allocated Out Patients Appointments in Physiotherapy. This means that you will probably go back to hospital to see a Physiotherapist, initially say, once a week.

This doesn't stop you getting private physiotherapy sessions as well, though some 'hospital physios' may not want to treat you if you go elsewhere for help.   It's a good idea to talk to your physio before looking for another physiotherapist and check that both physios know what each other is doing!

Indeed your physio at the Hospital may be able to recommend a physioterrorist!

If not, there are the names of qualified local Physiotherapists listed at
(click on) Physio2u or PhysioFirst
or try looking in Yellow Pages for someone who is, preferably, a Neuro-Physiotherapist.
