Once you have registered, you will be able to arrange an initial video consultation with your physiotherapist.   The exercise programme runs for 12 weeks. 12 weeks is enough time to allow the body to adapt to the exercises, and to form a good habit with exercise. This is the ideal timeframe to assess whether you are likely to benefit from the exercises and advice contained within the programme. 

During this period you will have 2 further follow-ups with your physiotherapist.  You can also message the physiotherapist at any time during the programme, ensuring you are supported throughout. 

You will receive two easy exercises with video instructions every day in the app. They take 5-10 minutes to perform. After completing an exercise, you report to your physiotherapist how it went. If necessary, your physiotherapist will adapt the exercise according to your pain and your physical ability. 

Initially, the exercises will be simpler so that you get used to the movements and find the right technique. The exercises will gradually become more difficult as you become stronger, have less pain and feel more confident. Your feedback to your physiotherapist is vital to making sure that the programme is tailored perfectly for you.

I’ve had an excellent experience at MSK in Bedford. From the physio – who was superb, through to the consultant app.

The exercises they prescribed made a difference in 3 days and now just over a week after seeing them, the pain is MILES better.
