During the appointment the physiotherapist will examine the client and provide instructions on how to relieve pain and improve mobility. You will meet your therapist 1-5 times. If necessary we also organize follow-up appointments.
In problems with the musculoskeletal system you may be assigned to direct access physiotherapy based on an assessment of the need for treatment by a nurse or the physiotherapy time reservation. In direct access physiotherapy the therapist can prescribe sick leave if necessary.
The assessment of need- and treatment plan for lymphatic therapy is done individually and requires a doctor’s referral. A lymphatic therapy assessment is done primarily if a severe lymphatic edema is caused by cancer surgery, radiation therapy, recurring erysipelas-infections and/or its acute aftercare. Comprehensive lymphatic therapy always includes self-administered compression therapy, therapeutic exercise, and active self-care.
