WhatsApp Forms for Physiotherapists and Chiropractors — Understand the Problem Before the First Session

Pain location, duration, and doctor's advice shape the first session. A WhatsApp form collects them upfront so you can prepare — and patients feel heard before they arrive.

The First Session Starts Better With Context

A patient who walks in saying "my back hurts" gives you very little to prepare for. A patient who has already told you where it hurts, since when, and what they've tried lets you start treating from minute one.

Physiotherapy Enquiry Form Template

Fields to include:

  • Full Name (Text, required)
  • Phone Number (Phone, required)
  • Age (Number)
  • Area of Concern (Dropdown) — Back / Neck / Shoulder / Knee / Ankle / Post-surgery / Sports injury / Other
  • How Long Has It Bothered You? (Choice) — Under a week / 1–4 weeks / 1–6 months / Over 6 months
  • Pain Level Today (Rating)
  • Seen a Doctor? (Yes/No)
  • Upload Reports or Scans (File Upload) — optional
  • Preferred Visit (Choice) — Clinic / Home visit
  • Preferred Time Slot (Choice)

    • Why the Upload Field Helps

    X-rays, MRI reports, and prescriptions are exactly what you would ask for anyway. Letting patients attach them to the form means you can review before the session, not during it. File uploads are available on WhatsLead Pro.

    Where to Share the Form

  • Google Business Profile — "physiotherapist near me" is a high-intent local search
  • Referring doctors and gyms — orthopaedic doctors, sports coaches, and trainers often send patients to physios; give them your link
  • Instagram — short exercise tips with the form in your bio
  • WhatsApp Status — seasonal posts such as desk-posture tips

    • Be Careful With Sensitive Details

    Health information is personal. Ask only what you need for a first assessment, say clearly how you will use it, and keep the details inside your own WhatsApp and dashboard.

    > "Hi [Name], thanks for the details. Lower-back pain for a few weeks usually responds well to a structured plan. I have Tuesday 6 pm free — shall I book you in and send the clinic location?"
