Medical Information Disclaimer

The information provided on this website is intended for general educational and informational purposes only.

It is not a substitute for an individual assessment, diagnosis, treatment plan or personalised advice from a physiotherapist, GP, consultant, oncology team or other appropriately qualified healthcare professional.

Information published on this website is written for a general audience and cannot take account of an individual's medical history, diagnosis, medications, treatment, investigations, risk factors or other circumstances.

Do not use information from this website to diagnose yourself or another person, change medication, stop medical treatment, delay medical assessment or replace advice provided by your healthcare team.

Exercise and rehabilitation recommendations must be individualised. An exercise, rehabilitation or treatment approach that is appropriate for one person may not be appropriate for another.

If you are unsure whether physiotherapy or exercise is appropriate for you, please seek advice from an appropriate healthcare professional.

The information on this website is reviewed periodically, but medical and scientific evidence changes over time. Where appropriate, references and publication dates are provided.

This website does not create a physiotherapist-patient relationship merely because you read, access or interact with general information published on it. A professional relationship and associated duty of care arise when personalised clinical care is undertaken.
