The house which was converted into the business is old, and when I walked in there was one young woman at reception, and the physiotherapist (her mother?) only. This isn't a deal breaker for me because she is much cheaper than others.
But when I saw her, she pulled out an old textbook to show me the positions she would use on me, and the spine model--which honestly felt like she was just legitimizing herself--and had me do some small exercizes. She did a sort of spine massage, and a couple back stretches and that was it. She thinks it's pinched nerves, but I am pretty sure I pulled those muscles when running, so I'm not even sure about her assessment.
She did a lot of talking and a lot less doing, and I'm not sure what she did was worth the $65. She seems like she's mostly retired but keeps the place open for the few that don't want to pay regular rates. Nice as she is, it just didn't feel professional or even super helpful.
I think I'll go to a regularly priced place next. read more
