Do I need a GP referral?

No. As a HCPC-registered physiotherapist, you can book an appointment directly without a referral from your GP. If you've recently seen another healthcare professional or have any relevant scan reports or medical letters, you're welcome to bring these along, but they are not essential.

What should I wear ?

Please wear comfortable clothing that allows the area being assessed to be examined easily. For example, if you're attending with knee pain, shorts are ideal, while a vest or loose-fitting top may be helpful for shoulder or neck assessments. If you're unsure, don't worry—we'll discuss this when your appointment is booked.

How long is an appointment ?

An Initial Assessment & Treatment typically lasts 45–60 minutes, allowing time for a detailed assessment, discussion, treatment where appropriate and a personalised rehabilitation plan.

Follow-up Appointments usually last around 45 minutes, focusing on your progress, ongoing treatment and progression of your rehabilitation programme.

You can find out more by visiting the Initial Assessment & Treatment and Follow-up Appointment pages.

How do I pay ?

Payment is due at the end of your appointment, unless otherwise agreed in advance.

TK Physiotherapy currently accepts payment by bank transfer or cash. If paying by bank transfer, an invoice containing the payment details will be provided following your appointment.

Card payments are planned to be introduced in the future to provide additional convenience for patients.

What happens during my first appointment ?

Your first appointment is designed to provide a thorough understanding of your condition and the best course of treatment.

We'll discuss your symptoms, medical history and goals before carrying out a detailed physical assessment. Where appropriate, treatment will begin during the same appointment, and you'll receive a personalised rehabilitation plan along with advice and exercises to continue your recovery at home.

For a full breakdown of what to expect, please visit the Initial Assessment & Treatment page.

Do you treat sports injuries ?

Yes. I assess and treat a wide range of sports-related injuries, from recreational exercisers to those involved in competitive sport.

Whether you've suffered a muscle strain, ligament injury, tendon problem or overuse injury, treatment is tailored to your individual goals, helping you recover safely and return to the activities you enjoy.

Can you visit care homes ?

Yes, in some circumstances.

I understand that travelling to appointments may not always be possible for older adults or those with reduced mobility. Care home visits may be available depending on the individual's needs, location and the facilities available within the care home.

If you're enquiring on behalf of a family member or resident, please get in touch to discuss your requirements.

Can I claim through insurance ?

At present, TK Physiotherapy is not registered with private medical insurance providers, so appointments are self-funded.

Payment is made directly by the patient at the time of treatment. If this changes in the future, the website will be updated accordingly.

Do I need Equipment ?

No. I'll bring any equipment required for your assessment and treatment.

Most rehabilitation exercises can be completed using everyday household items or minimal equipment. If any additional equipment is recommended, this will always be discussed with you first.
