The first consultation and follow ups:

Dipa will ask you about your medical history, general health, concerns, and goals relevant to your presenting symptoms. The examination will involve assessing areas of complaint, surroundings structures, checking your posture, compensations and mobility. Some clinical tests can be carried out, as this will help understand what structures may be driving your symptoms and inform how to tailor your treatment. Once a working diagnosis is formed, she will discuss a treatment plan with you and highlight how long it may take to resolve your problem.

Dipa's expertise is functional movement, yoga and pilates so she can help you find ways to improve your practice while avoiding compensation and long term risks on the body.
