AI Prompts for Physiotherapists: Handle the Paperwork Faster

Physiotherapists are trained to assess, diagnose and treat — not to spend an hour writing patient handouts and Instagram posts. AI produces the first draft of your written content in seconds, so you can focus on the clinical work. Here are 3 prompts to get you started. The full pack has 47.

Home exercise program explanation email

A patient who understands why they're doing an exercise is far more likely to actually do it. This prompt writes a clear, motivating email that accompanies the HEP and answers the questions patients always ask before they ask them.

Write an email to accompany a home exercise program for a physiotherapy patient. Patient name: [NAME]. Their condition or injury: [e.g. lower back pain, rotator cuff strain, post-knee surgery]. Key exercises in the program: [LIST 2-3 EXERCISES]. How often to do them: [FREQUENCY]. What the patient should feel vs what is a warning sign to stop: [GUIDANCE]. Tone: warm, clear and encouraging — like explaining to a friend. Under 200 words. No jargon.

Instagram post on injury prevention

Consistent social media builds trust and brings in new patients who find you before they're injured. This prompt turns any physio tip into a practical, shareable post that positions you as the local expert.

Write an Instagram post on physiotherapy injury prevention. Topic: [e.g. desk posture, running injury prevention, warm-up routines, common lifting mistakes]. My audience: [e.g. office workers / runners / tradies / gym-goers]. Format: a short hook, 3-4 practical tips, and a call to action to book an assessment or follow for more tips. Tone: professional but approachable — expert, not clinical. Add 4 relevant hashtags.

Post-appointment review request message

Google reviews are the most powerful way to attract new patients in your area. Most happy patients mean to leave one but never get around to it — a well-timed, personalised message after a successful appointment dramatically increases the rate.

Write a short, friendly message asking a physiotherapy patient to leave a Google review. Practice name: [PRACTICE NAME]. Patient name: [NAME]. What we treated: [BRIEF DESCRIPTION, e.g. lower back pain, post-op knee]. Include a placeholder for the Google review link. Tone: genuine and appreciative, not pushy. Under 80 words. Can be sent as SMS or email.
