Did you know we offer free 15 minute consultations?

Are you curious about what a pelvic health physiotherapist does? Think it might be right for you, but you’re not sure? Nervous about getting to an appointment and not feeling comfortable with the medical professional treating you? Those are all the reasons (and more!) that I offer free 15 minute consultations to first time patients.

Here are a few more reasons:

#1. I think you should get to “interview” your healthcare providers

Your health is your business, and it can sometimes involve sensitive or vulnerable stuff. I want everyone who visits my clinic to feel comfortable and safe, and one of the ways we can do that is have an informal chat before our first “official” appointment, just to make sure it’s a good fit.

#2. It’s your body

There’s no getting around it: Pelvic health physiotherapy can sometimes involve sharing some pretty private parts of your body with someone you don’t know. It can be intimidating to just walk into a stranger’s consulting room and be expected to just be okay with them touching your vagina or anus. Not only is that a terrible experience for you, that stress can actually cause your body to tense up, meaning your initial assessment might not actually be that accurate. While I always does my best to make sure you’re totally at ease when you’re in the room with me, breaking the ice with an initial 15 minute conversation can really help too.

#3. It’s your money on the line

You’re going to be paying good money to come see me, so I think of the free initial consultation as a kind of “test drive.” You get to meet me before you’ve made any financial commitment, and you can come to your first appointment feeling great about this decision you’ve made. Win-win!
