Hi, R has his first physio appointment tomorrow - just wondering what he might expect? He is definitely going to mention his stiff neck but I am hoping the physio will pick up on other things such as posture, walking and struggling getting out of low chairs. R has asked me not to go to the appointment as he doesn’t feel I need to be there 
Morning Rach … My first neurological physiotherapy involved an assessment only.
50 simple tasks, like standing up from a seated position without using your arms. I scored 26/50. there followed 5 or 6 one hour sessions once weekly where you might ride an exercise bike, walk along a line foot to foot. After the 5/6 weeks you do the same 50 tests to see if you have improved and see if your score out of 50 is better.
Mine was done in a hospital gym. I had 1 to 1 sessions.
I wore shorts, trainers and t shirt. Do take a bottle of water.
He will be encouraged to do exercises at home and advised on lifestyle changes.
Any questions do ask.
Best wishes
Steve
Thanks for getting back to me so promptly, that is really interesting - I think R is going from work so would be in a suit so he may have to rethink that bit. Cheers, Rach
