What a typical first appointment looks like

1. Your story, first (about 10 minutes) — Your therapist asks where it hurts, how it started, what makes it better or worse, and what you want to get back to. Bring any imaging reports or a medication list if you have them.
2. Movement assessment — You'll be guided through movements, strength and flexibility tests — and specific tests for joints or nerves — so the cause is identified, not guessed. This is usually 15–20 minutes of a first visit.
3. Treatment starts the same visit — First visits aren't just talk. Expect hands-on treatment, a first exercise or two, and clear guidance on what to do — and avoid — until your next visit.
4. Your plan, in plain language — Before you leave you'll know the likely timeline, how often to come (follow-ups are typically shorter, around 30 minutes), and your home exercises. Progress is re-measured as you go, and the plan changes if you plateau.

Your part

Do your home exercises as prescribed, wear comfortable clothing you can move in, and bring your care card, extended-health details, any imaging reports and a medication list. Appointment lengths are typical ranges — the clinic confirms yours at booking. ICBC and WorkSafeBC claims are welcome where the service is covered.
