During your first visit, the therapist will start by asking questions about your injury or condition. They will ask how it happened, what movements cause pain, what activities you’re not able to do, and more. Next, they will ask about your past medical history. They will also look at any imaging that you may have. Then they will begin an assessment.

We encourage patients to bring any imaging that they may have to their first visit. These reports can help give further details regarding your injury or condition. They may help the therapist when figuring out your course of treatment.

Some injuries or conditions may not require imaging, however. So don’t worry if you do not have any imaging or imaging reports. The therapist performs specialized testing during your first visit that provides details beyond information found in imaging.
