Care for the whole person.
Richard Jones is a Chartered Physiotherapist based in Stratford-upon-Avon. His practice brings together physiotherapy, rehabilitation and hydrotherapy with an emphasis on listening, explanation and practical progress.
An injury or change in mobility can affect more than one joint or muscle. It can change your routine, your confidence and the things you enjoy. Richard’s approach makes room for that wider picture.
That means starting with your story, discussing what an assessment shows and agreeing goals that are meaningful to you. Your plan should fit your current ability and be reviewed as things change.
Your first appointment,
without the unknowns.
Your first appointment, made simpler.
Download your new patient registration and consent form before you come in. Complete the relevant registration and health-history sections, then bring it to your appointment.
Richard will discuss treatment-specific screening and consent with you. Please do not send completed forms through the website enquiry helper.
Tell your story.
Discuss what has been happening, your relevant health history and the activities you want to work towards. Bring any referral letters or post-operative instructions that may be relevant.
Understand the next step.
Richard will explain the assessment and ask for your consent. You can ask questions, say when something is uncomfortable or decline a part of the assessment.
Agree a plan together.
Discuss the available options, what you can work on between appointments and how progress will be reviewed. Further medical assessment may be appropriate if a problem needs a different kind of care.
Come as you are.
Wear comfortable clothing that allows the area being assessed to be accessed appropriately. Let Richard know in advance about communication, mobility, sensory or accessibility needs, or if you would like someone to accompany you.
