If you're living with a neurological condition, we may be able to assist you in improving how you move and manage daily tasks more independently.
From injury management to tailored rehab, we help you return to your sport ready to perform at your best.
We provide rehab support for a variety of situations, including before and after surgery, as well as work, road, and sports injuries.
We may help you maintain mobility, independence, and an active lifestyle when living with a long-term health condition.
We assist with getting you back to work by identifying any physical concerns and equipping you with strategies to stay safe.
We believe life should be enjoyed at every stage, and staying mobile and independent is a big part of that. We're here to support you.
Hydrotherapy offers great support for recovery, long-term pain, and general wellness. Come along to one of our sessions.
We offer pain education that unpacks the science of pain and gives you useful ways to understand and take charge of it.
Many conditions can be treated with physiotherapy, from rehabbing a specific injury to more general pain management. Our dedicated team of clinical and sports physiotherapists has seen it all, no problem is too big or too small.
Our physiotherapists may use a range of treatments depending on your condition, such as soft tissue massage, joint mobilisation, tailored exercise programs, hydrotherapy, dry needling, electrotherapy, temperature-based therapies, and education.
We recommend wearing clothing that’s easy to move in and gives your physio access to the area of concern, such as activewear or shorts and a t-shirt. Supportive footwear is also ideal.
Everyone’s needs are different. The number of sessions will depend on your condition and how your body responds. Your physio will provide an estimate and adjust the plan as you progress.
While some patients may experience some discomfort, physio treatment should in itself not be very painful. If you feel any discomfort during your session, be sure to communicate this to your physiotherapist so that they can adjust their technique accordingly.
