How can a Physiotherapist diagnose me if he hasn’t even
touched me?
All Physiotherapy appointments start with a 'subjective assessment', in which the Physiotherapist will ask you a well-structured series of questions designed to discover what they need to know about your injury (without touching you). By the end of the subjective assessment, the Physio should already have a very clear idea of your probable diagnosis. The Physiotherapist may then perform some tests to conform this diagnosis.
Your Online Physiotherapist will contact you with any further queries about your injury once they have reviewed your original assessment. They may prompt you to answer further questions, or perform certain movements, and will then assess your feedback regarding these. This process should clarify your diagnosis. If we ever see the need to look further into your diagnosis, we will not hesitate to refer you on to a specialist
How can a Physiotherapist treat me if he hasn’t even touched me?
Most people's traditional view of Physiotherapy is that it involves "hands on" treatment. In reality, this is only a small portion of what Physiotherapists do to assist with injury and condition management. Educating you about your condition, identifying contributing factors from your lifestyle, explaining the do's and don'ts as well as instigating a structured and tailored exercise or rehabilitation program, are some of the most important things Physiotherapists do.
You have given me exercises to do but I’m not sure if I’m doing them right?
The wonders of modern technology open up a whole world of possibility. You could attach a photo or video of yourself doing the exercises, or even organise for us to check them via your webcam in real time!
All the exercise descriptions are very clear and illustrated by photo or video. with demonstration, explanation and guided coaching, so often this makes things very clear.

"Gordon saved my career, I would not go anywhere else for physiotherapy, cannot recommend him enough"
Captain Z Joachim Afani - Senior Tees Pilot.
“I have had the good fortune to have had a career in football which allowed me to play for top clubs in the premier league and honour of playing for my country. This brought me into contact with the worlds best medical practitioners. In my opinion without a shadow of doubt Gordon Ellis is a leading Physiothapist. Gordon has travelled the world with me seeing the worlds best doctors such as Muller-Wohlfahrts and famous surgeon's like Richard Steadman. Gordon's well respected in his field, i remember on every occasion Mr. Steadman let him into the operating theatre to chat and watch my knee operations. When Liverpool held the charity tsunami appeal at Anfield Gordon was selected as Liverpool Legends physio.”
