What To Expect At My First Visit

What you should expect from your first visit with us:

  • You will meet our friendly front office staff, who will welcome you to Amped Physiotherapy.
  • You will meet with our physiotherapist for the initial evaluation.

Step 1: Introduction

  • We will explain what we will do on the first day, from start to finish of the appointment.

Step 2: About You

  • We will ask about your history and daily habits. Do you exercise, do you smoke, do you have kids? All of these may seem unrelated to your problem, but they are not. Please be sure to share all the information we ask about!

3: Your Goals

  • We will ask what you want out of your treatment – What is your main goal? Why is this important to you? What does your success look like? Imagine we are having this conversation a year from now – what would you be happy to achieve?

4: Assessment

  • We will assess you, then explain your problem as clearly as we can in our working diagnosis. It may be a simple, specific diagnosis, or you may have a regional problem that requires us to work on more than just the sore area to help you get better.

5: Treatment

  • We use manual therapy, movement control, and exercise in your treatments. Your homework will reinforce what we have done in the clinic.

6: Homework

We won’t promise the homework will be easy, but we do promise it will be realistic for you to fit into real life

7: Plan of Care

  • We will fill out your Initial Plan of Care form, which outlines the number and frequency of your future appointments, and what we will focus on to help you achieve your goal. You will get a copy to take home with you.

8: Booking

  • We will take your form to the front desk, where your plan will be reviewed. Our client care staff will book as much of your plan as possible, and you will receive an email or paper copy of your upcoming appointments. We offer many convenient appointment times, however, prime times can become busy, so it is best to book ahead as much as possible.

9: Follow-ups

  • We will ask how you have changed since the assessment. We will review your homework, and use our manual therapy, movement control work and exercise treatment tools during your visit.

10: Recovery Expectations

How you should prepare for your visit:

  • Arrive a few minutes early for your first appointment.
  • Make a list of questions that you have to discuss on your first visit.
  • List signs and symptoms that can be of importance to the therapist.
  • Have in writing key past medical history, previous treatments, current medications, and other important information.
  • Bring comfortable clothing that will allow the physiotherapist to visualize the area you are having treated.
  • Bring your calendar to book your follow-up appointments!

Great space, professional, sports oriented. Jenn asked about my goals in recovery, and gave me a solid plan. My progress has been amazing even in a short time. Far better than three other places I've been. She even went through some of my routine to modify and check my form. Best decision was to come here. And not half as far as I thought.

Jorden is very knowledgeable and professional I drive 2hrs from my home for my sessions with him and it’s so worth it . I am so thankful for all that he has done for me this far I am doing things I thought I wouldn’t be able to ever do again . every session I leave feeling better. I have had several knee surgeries and due to coming to amped with Jorden this recovery has been hands down the best experience I’ve ever had . Thanks again Jorden keep being awesome 😀

I moved to Ottawa last year and I was looking for a new physio and I’m so glad I chose Amped Physio. From the front desk staff to their physiotherapists, they are all super friendly and helpful. I have the pleasure of working with Ian as my physiotherapist and my experience has amazing. He goes above and beyond for you, very informative and just a really great guy. Highly recommend Ian and Amped Physio.

I struggled to find a good physiotherapist in Orleans Ottawa, I went to others for so long and none helped me heal my back injury. I found Denise through Google search with Amped Physio and I can’t tell you enough on how mentally relaxed I feel since I have been going to her; aside from working on great exercises to get me back to the gym she’s been so kind and understanding. She explains everything in detail where no doctor has explained to me. I recommend her 110% if you need a great physiotherapist who you will feel better with results and not feel like you wasted your time, money and energy then go see Denise :)
