As with other sports, equestrian athletes benefit from a Sports Physiotherapist being part of their team. Sports Physiotherapists have completed 6+ years university training to be highly skilled in assessing your physical impairments impacting your performance.
What does an online consultation involve:
Completion of a Questionnaire regarding your/coaches concerns, riding experience, goals, past medical history and so on.
Slow motion analysis of short video(s) of you riding.
A teleconsult/video call to continue your assessment, discuss the findings of the video analysis as well as your goals, and to formulate an individualised plan/program.
Your riding specific and individualised rehabilitation/performance program will be emailed to you and you are encouraged to keep in touch with Zoe regarding your progress.
A follow-up consultation to progress your program may be scheduled for 2-8 weeks time depending on the presenting issue.
Telehealth is claimable on most Private Health Insurance funds.
