What to Expect During Your First Visit at Beyond Health Physiotherapy

Starting physiotherapy is a major step toward recovery and wellness—whether you’re dealing with pain, an injury, or post-surgical healing. Your first visit is designed to be welcoming, clear, and collaborative.

1. A Warm Welcome and a Comfortable Environment

As you walk into our SE Calgary clinic, you’ll be greeted by our friendly front-desk staff. If you haven’t already completed our online intake form, we’ll guide you through it. This includes your health history, current condition, and wellness goals.

Our clinic atmosphere is clean, calm, and supportive to help ease any first-visit nerves.

2. Thorough Assessment by a Licensed Physiotherapist

You’ll meet with one of our expert physiotherapists in a private room. They’ll take time to understand your symptoms, lifestyle, and health goals through:

• Medical history review
• Detailed conversation about your pain or limitations
• A physical assessment of posture, mobility, flexibility, and joint/muscle function

This process helps identify the root cause of the issue—not just treat symptoms.

3. Personalized Treatment Plan

Based on your assessment, your therapist will design a customized treatment plan tailored to your condition and lifestyle. This may include:

• Manual therapy
• Corrective exercises
• Postural training and education
• Dry needling, ultrasound, or taping (as needed)

Our approach is focused on long-term healing and prevention.

4. Initial Treatment Begins

Often, your first appointment includes hands-on treatment or basic exercises. Your therapist will explain each step and make sure you’re comfortable throughout. You may also be given at-home stretches or exercises to support progress.

5. Setting Goals and Scheduling Follow-Ups

Your physiotherapist will outline a recovery timeline, frequency of sessions, and clear milestones. We track your progress and adjust plans as needed—with your input at every stage.

6. Transparent Billing and Easy Scheduling

Before you leave, our reception team will help book your follow-up visits and walk you through insurance claims and billing (we offer direct billing to most providers).
