Good to know before
you book
Do I need a referral?
No. You can book directly. If your case needs a GP or surgeon involved, Willem coordinates that for you.
How many sessions will I need?
Most recovery plans run 4 to 12 weeks. You get an honest estimate after the first assessment.
Do you offer virtual sessions?
Yes, for follow-ups and exercise reviews. First assessments are in person.
Ready when you are.
Book directly, no referral needed. Most patients get a slot within 48 hours and leave the first visit with a plan.
