FAQ’s

Are The Practitioners All Fully Qualified?
All Physiotherapists at Aberdeen Physiotherapy are fully qualified and members of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) and the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC)
Do I Need A Doctor's Referral?
You do not necessarily need to see your GP prior to physiotherapy, unless your Insurance Company stipulates this as a requirement. If you are paying for treatment independently you are free to see a physiotherapist first. We may contact your GP or ask you to visit them if we feel this is necessary.
Are You Registered With The Major Health Insurance Providers?

Yes, we are registered with most major providers. However, we no longer accept Bupa. Some insurance providers require you to obtain a pre-authorisation number prior to attending the clinic.

What Do I wear to the sessions?

It is recommended that you wear loose fitting clothing.You may feel more comfortable wearing shorts for lower limb and back problems. Your physiotherapist will require you to partially undress to assess and treat your problem appropriately.

Can a friend/relative accompany me?

Of course you are welcome to have a friend or family member in the treatment room if this makes you more comfortable. Children and babies can come into the room although you may prefer to get someone to look after them to ensure that you get the most out of your session.

What should I expect from my first visit?
Your first session will normally last 40 mins. This will allow the therapist to assess your main problems, discuss your goals and start your treatment programme. A registration consent form requires to be completed prior to treatment – for this reason, please arrive 5 minutes prior to your appointment.
