All our physiotherapists are highly trained and experienced in dealing with acute or chronic musculoskeletal pain. We use a combination of manual therapy, exercise therapy and electrotherapy to ensure you make a quick and complete recovery. If we are unable to help you, we will endeavour to refer you to a suitable specialist.
Our physiotherapists are able to provide screening in relation to specific sports. A screen includes a series of sports specific tests done by a physiotherapist from which a list of deficiencies are made. Based on these deficiencies, an exercise program is devised to address them before they contribute to an injury that may cause time in season to be missed.
The most important aspect of returning to sport quickly after injury is to have a plan of re-introduction to training and appropriate time to start playing again. Our physiotherapists are able to devise a progression of exercises and drills for training, and estimate accurate targets for when it is safe and sensible to return to sport.

Your rehabilitation will be supervised by an experienced physio in our airconditioned gym and will coincide with others who have had the same or similar operations, giving you extra support and motivation.
Prehabilitation is an exercise program undertaken prior to surgery.
