Symptoms Can Have Different Causes

Symptoms and health concerns can have many possible causes, including musculoskeletal, neurological, gastrointestinal, metabolic, medication-related, structural, pelvic health, or other medical factors. Physiotherapy may be helpful when symptoms are related to movement, mobility, muscle or joint function, strength, coordination, balance, pelvic floor function, or other areas within the scope of physiotherapy.

Physiotherapy may not be appropriate for every condition. Medical investigation, medication, specialist assessment, imaging, nutrition support, or other treatment may also be required depending on the underlying cause.

Please seek prompt medical attention for symptoms that are severe, rapidly worsening, unexplained, or concerning. Examples include:

  • Significant trauma or a serious recent injury
  • Sudden or progressive weakness, numbness, loss of coordination, or other new neurological symptoms
  • New loss of bowel or bladder control
  • Chest pain, difficulty breathing, loss of consciousness, or a seizure
  • Unexplained fever, persistent vomiting, unusual bleeding, or unexplained weight loss
  • Severe, rapidly worsening, or persistent pain
  • Any other new symptom that may require urgent medical assessment
