Telehealth Appointments with Riccardo at The Body Lab
Personalised Care from Anywhere
At The Body Lab, Riccardo Galeotti offers Telehealth appointments to ensure you receive top-tier personalised care, no matter where you are. Whether you’re struggling with chronic pain, recovering from injury, or seeking expert advice on movement, biomechanics, or posture correction, our Telehealth services provide an effective and convenient solution for those unable to visit the clinic in person.
With over 18 years of experience in functional biomechanics, acupuncture, and movement therapy, Riccardo is a specialist in treating issues related to gait, foot mechanics, posture, and chronic pain. Unlike traditional therapies that focus on temporary pain relief, Riccardo’s approach targets the root causes of your discomfort by examining and improving the way your body moves.
Through Telehealth appointments, Riccardo can evaluate your movement patterns, analyse your posture, and guide you through tailored exercises designed to restore function and reduce pain, all from the comfort of your home.
What to Expect During a Telehealth Appointment
Riccardo’s Telehealth sessions are designed to provide the same comprehensive care you would receive in person. During your session, Riccardo will:
Conduct a detailed movement assessment
Riccardo will observe how you stand, walk, and perform various movements to identify dysfunctional movement patterns contributing to your pain or discomfort.
Guide you through personalised exercises
Based on the movement analysis, Riccardo will prescribe targeted exercises to improve your movement, strengthen weak areas, and reduce pain.
Offer expert advice on posture and ergonomics
If poor posture or daily habits are contributing to your symptoms, Riccardo will provide strategies to improve posture and reduce strain on your body.
Provide follow-up support
Riccardo offers follow-up Telehealth sessions to monitor your progress, adjust your treatment plan, and provide continued guidance.
Why Choose Telehealth at The Body Lab?
Unlike other therapy models that may focus on passive treatments like massage or adjustments, Riccardo’s approach through Telehealth is rooted in active movement therapy and education. This means that you’re not just receiving temporary pain relief but building long-term strategies for improving how your body functions.
Key Differences to Other Therapies:
Personalised Movement-Based Approach: Rather than relying solely on passive treatments such as chiropractic adjustments or physical therapy machines, Riccardo focuses on improving the body’s movement patterns and biomechanics. This approach ensures that you gain functional improvements that translate into better posture, less pain, and more efficient movement.
Root-Cause Diagnosis: Many therapies address the symptoms of pain without investigating its deeper cause. Riccardo’s method is designed to identify and treat the root cause of your discomfort, ensuring a more sustainable recovery.
Holistic Focus: Riccardo’s Telehealth sessions are not limited to treating pain but aim to improve your overall well-being by enhancing your body’s alignment and functionality.
Long-Term Solutions: Through education and tailored exercise programs, Riccardo empowers you to manage your own health, reducing dependency on long-term, ongoing passive treatments.
Who Can Benefit from Telehealth at The Body Lab?
Telehealth appointments are ideal for anyone seeking personalised care but who may:
• Live in remote or rural areas with limited access to specialized care.
• Have a busy schedule that makes it difficult to attend in-person appointments.
• Need follow-up support after an initial in-person consultation.
• Be seeking expert advice on posture correction, foot mechanics, or chronic pain management.
Additionally, Riccardo’s Telehealth sessions are particularly beneficial for those dealing with:
• Chronic pain such as lower back pain, foot pain (e.g., plantar fasciitis), or shoulder pain.
• Postural issues due to prolonged sitting or poor ergonomics.
• Foot problems such as bunions, flat feet, or gait issues.
How It Works: Telehealth at The Body Lab
When you book a Telehealth appointment with Riccardo at The Body Lab, the process is designed to provide personalised care tailored to your specific needs. Here’s how it works:
1. Free 15-Minute Consultation: Before booking a full session, it’s required to schedule a free 15-minute consultation with Riccardo. During this brief call, you’ll discuss your concerns, symptoms, and movement patterns. This initial conversation helps Riccardo determine if Telehealth is the right approach for you and what specific therapies may be needed. This ensures that your Telehealth session is customised and effective in addressing your needs.
Note: You cannot book a full Telehealth appointment without completing this free consultation first. This step is critical for Riccardo to assess your needs properly and to guide your treatment plan.
2. Send Photos/Videos: After your free consultation, you’ll be asked to send photos or videos of your feet, lower legs, or any other relevant body areas. This visual data helps Riccardo assess visible alignment issues, swelling, deformities, or other structural concerns.
3. Movement & Gait Analysis: Based on the photos or videos, Riccardo will perform a detailed movement and gait analysis. This involves analyzing your gait (how you walk) and other key movements, such as squatting or balancing exercises, to identify the root causes of your pain or discomfort. By understanding your movement biomechanics, Riccardo can develop a tailored treatment program that addresses any underlying issues.
4. Initial Consultation: Using the information gathered from the videos and movement analysis, Riccardo will conduct a full Telehealth consultation to discuss your symptoms, movement patterns, and history of pain in greater detail. This deeper evaluation allows for a more refined and effective treatment plan to be created.
5. Personalised Exercise Program: After your consultation, Riccardo will guide you through a customized exercise program designed specifically for your condition. These exercises will target areas of concern, whether it’s improving posture, correcting foot alignment, or optimizing movement patterns. All exercises can be done from home with easy-to-follow instructions.
6. Pre-Order Wedges for Therapy: In some cases, Riccardo may recommend custom wedges to help correct foot alignment or improve movement efficiency, particularly if issues like flat feet or misalignment are present. These wedges can be pre-ordered to integrate into your therapy program, so it’s essential to discuss the potential need for them during your consultation.
7. Follow-Up Care: Your treatment doesn’t end after one session. Riccardo will provide follow-up consultations to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your therapy plan. You may be asked to send updated videos of your movements to track improvements and ensure that the therapy is on the right path.
Why Schedule a Free Consultation First?
Scheduling a free 15-minute consultation ensures that Riccardo can properly evaluate your condition before booking a full Telehealth session. This initial conversation helps determine if custom wedges or other specialised treatments are required and guarantees that the Telehealth session will be fully tailored to your needs.
Since the free consultation is mandatory before any Telehealth appointment, it helps streamline your treatment and ensures that you receive the most effective and personalised care from the start.
