AI is now streamlining physiotherapy clinics by handling notes, creating personalised treatment plans, tracking adherence, engaging patients and supporting billing, but the biggest advantage comes from integrated platforms like Preve that unify these tools and allow physios to spend less time on admin and more time on patient care.

Ah, the classic physio ghosting. One moment, they’re committed to getting better, diligently nodding along as you explain their rehab plan… the next? Poof. They vanish. So why do people disappear into the void, leaving their rehab incomplete? Here are some of the most common reasons, pulled from research, forums, patient interviews, and a fair bit of real-world physio experience.

Non-adherence to physiotherapy plans, reaching as high as 80%, leads to poorer functional outcomes, higher risk of re-injury, longer time off work or sport, greater healthcare costs, and even psychosocial impacts like anxiety and depression, making patient engagement and adherence critical for recovery success.

Effective treatment planning involves starting with a diagnosis, structuring phases with clear goals, linking appointments to the plan, including manageable home exercises, setting exit criteria, and regularly revisiting the plan to adjust as needed, ensuring patient trust and better outcomes.
