What is a Remote Consultation?
With the Covid-19 virus and corresponding social distancing staying home for many of us is the only option. So Hugo has set up a remote Consultation option through tele/video software.
If you have not been treated by Hugo before then you will need to an Initial consultation. This will take approximately 30mins and it will involve a full case history where Hugo will ask detailed questions about your pain and injury. There will also be a visual assessment see ing what movements do and do not cause you pain. Finally, Hugo will talk through with you what has happened and the potential causes of your pain. He will prove you with specific advice to help reduce the pain and prescribe some specific Therapeutic exercises that will help address the cause of the pain and help with the healing process.
Using Video to help the healing process
Hugo also facilitates his patients’ recoveries by videoing his patients practising their exercises, with their permission, so they complete them effectively and properly at home to accelerate their recovery time. As a Remote consultation patient you will have access to his dedicated YouTube channel, for Therapeutic Exercise where a library of specific exercises can be found to help you recover and give you a useful reference point for the future.
