When to seek urgent care
Physiotherapy is safe for most people, but see a doctor urgently if you have any of these:
- A fall causing injury or a knock to the head, especially if you take blood-thinning medicine
- Sudden severe dizziness with weakness, slurred speech, or vision loss
- For these, seek urgent care
Do not book physiotherapy for emergency symptoms. Seek urgent medical care first, then use physiotherapy when it is safe and appropriate.
