Physiotherapy can help with a wide range of concerns, from targeted injury recovery to ongoing pain. Our team of clinical and sports physiotherapists brings experience and care to every situation—big or small.
Our physios may employ a variety of treatments in the management of your condition, including hands-on therapies (such as soft tissue massage and joint mobilisation), exercise therapy, hydrotherapy, dry needling, electrotherapy, hot and cold therapy, and patient education.
If possible, wear loose, comfortable clothing, such as shorts and a t-shirt. Your physio will need to be able to easily access the affected area, and tight or restrictive clothing can impede this. It’s recommended to wear comfortable footwear, as you may be on your feet and moving around.
The number of sessions depends on your individual condition and how you respond to treatment. Your physio will guide you on what to expect and aim to reduce the frequency over time.
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.
