Our articles are not designed to replace medical advice. If you have an injury we recommend seeing a qualified health professional. To book an appointment with Tom Goom (AKA ‘The Running Physio’) visit our clinic page. We offer both in-person assessments and online consultations.
I remember doing my first online consultation a few years ago and wondering, will this help? Can we do what we need to without being physically with a patient? I was pleased to find the answer to both questions is a definite YES!
When working with athletes the key information is often what they tell us rather than the tests we do. We can determine training habits and optimise them to the right level. We can discuss recovery strategies and sleep. A runner can describe their symptoms in detail and we can explore pain and its behaviour to form a working diagnosis. As systems have evolved there are tests we can send in advance for a patient to do, or guide them through them within the session.
We can create and share exercise programmes and even monitor symptoms during these exercises with new software.
In short, an online consultation can be a great way to get expert help and form a plan to get you back to the sport you love.
