What to expect during your physiotherapy session.

If you are planning on booking a session at START Clinic, please watch this You Tube video to give you an idea of what a typical session involves. It is about 4 minutes long and details what generally happens in your first appointment as well as the address, what you need to bring, wear and give consent to. I will ask if you have watched and understood the video before any examination takes place.

Things to bring to the appointment:

1. mobile phone with charge and memory so I can video/photograph your exercises

2. suitable clothing to allow examination and treatment of the effected area and surrounding area

3. footwear specific to your sport ie. golf shoes/football boots, hiking boots

4. copies of x-rays or scan reports, lists of medications and previous injuries

Please familiarise yourself with the cancellation policy. I try to be as punctual as possible for your appointment. 

If you are going to be late, please message me on 07900 555 005.

Bernie is a Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) Certified Medical Professional. Having an intricate knowledge of the stresses the body goes under during the golf swing means a better understanding of potential injuries and swing characteristics.

START Clinic can  perform a dynamic screening process which assesses everything from neck range of movement to your ability to stand on one leg with your eyes closed. All 16 tests affect your ability to swing a golf club efficiently. Just working on a few identified areas of stiffness and weakness can dramatically improve your ball striking and decrease the risk of injury.

Having a medical professional who can find what you need is one thing. Being shown how to get it and WHY you need it will make so much more sense. If you understand what your body is missing and how it can affect your swing, you are much more likely to do something about it.

Give it a go. I am totally confident that you will gain more than just information.
