In order that we can schedule your appointment, we’ll need a bit of information from you. You’ll see a pop up box once you click on the book appointment box. It has a green ‘Log In’ button and a blue Register’ button, it’s the BLUE one you want to select. 

Step 3: Fill In Your Details

Let’s create your login credentials. This step ensures that your information remains secure. Once you’ve set up your name and email address, you’ll need to choose ad reconfirm a password. Finally type in your mobile number and select the big green ‘Get Verification Code’. 

A code will be sent directly to the mobile number you have just entered. Type the code into the box. Tick the small box on the left hand side that says ‘Accept Terms and Conditions’. You’ll notice that the green box has now changed and says ‘Submit’. Click that box and on we go.. 

Step 4: Selecting Your Appointment Duration

Now you’ll see the book appointment box again, this time when you click it you’ll be taken to a box that reads ‘Initial Consultation’.

Select the small button that says 60 minutes (All of our initial consultations are up to 60 minutes so our physios can really understand what is going on for you and how best to treat it or where to refer you).

Now you choose the appointment date and time that suits you best, you’ll see months at the top which you can scroll through and the days are underneath. Click on a day and it will show Blue, yellow and black slots which are morning afternoon and evening (subject to availability). Choose the ideal time for you.
