How our lives have changed in the last month with the recent spread of the corona virus. The current social distancing laws implemented by the Australian government have resulted in Macarthur physiotherapy implementing a variety of different and flexible mediums to deliver our great health services to our very valuable clients.

Suffering from General Aches & Pains? At MacArthur Physiotherapy, we understand that life can suddenly become quite difficult and tiresome when you are suffering from a multitude of different aches and pains. Constant pain, tightness, spasms or an inability to perform your usual activities can be both disheartening and debilitating. When you know that you are not living your best life, simply because of the aches and pains you are experiencing – what’s the solution?

At MacArthur Physiotherapy, we love sports! Unfortunately, we treat lots of people who are dealing with sports related injuries, and it doesn’t matter whether you are an elite athlete or a weekend warrior, sports injuries can come out of the blue and strike hard. It’s no fun dealing with an injury, but when it lays you up and prevents you from participating in your favourite sports, it’s an even bigger problem in your life.

Macarthur Physiotherapy’s clinical staff are your trusted support team for your surgery. You no doubt have concerns about your upcoming procedure, so we work with you and your medical team to reduce the chance of complications and maximise your surgical outcomes. Our Park Central clinic is situated within Campbelltown Private Hospital.

Paediatric Physiotherapy is an evidence-based therapy that assists to not only improve and optimise physical development in babies/children and improve movement dysfunction but also achieve family centred goals. Physical problems in children can begin in early stages of life. Paediatric Physiotherapy plays an important role in a number of conditions in infants and children.

Prostate cancer is the second most diagnosed cancer globally. One of the treatments for prostate cancer is radical prostatectomy. Unfortunately, up to 60% of men can experience urinary incontinence after the surgery. While urinary incontinence improves over time, some men can still experience the symptoms 2 years later. Pelvic floor muscle training has been shown to improve urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy.

Vertigo is considered a sensation of whirling and loss of balance. It can feel like the room is spinning or a sense of imbalance. One of the most common causes of vertigo is BPPV. Once we have excluded other conditions possibly causing your dizziness and identified the problem as BPPV, it can be quite easily treated by re-positioning the particles in the inner ear back where they belong.

This modern technique is widely used to assess the core muscle function. Using a diagnostic ultrasound, your therapist can see your different layers of muscles contract and relax, giving a clear visual of how these muscles are working. Ultrasound physiotherapy can be used for any muscle retraining by accurately displaying the muscle functions and whether you are using the ‘right’ muscle’ and doing the ‘correct’ exercises.

This therapy is a non invasive treatment solution for long term soft tissue pathologies. Shockwave Therapy will enhance and reset the healing pattern while reducing pain and improving function. Physical effects of shock waves include – pain reduction, increased metabolism, promotes tissue healing and regeneration, and muscle tone recovery. With very few negative side effects, Shockwave Therapy is indicated for conditions that are normally very difficult to treat, and is now widely used for many therapeutic and wellness applications.

Dry Needling Plus (DNP) is an integrated neuromyofascial needling approach developed by Andrew Hutton, a dry needling expert and Sports Physiotherapist. DNP incorporates traditional Japanese Meridian needling techniques within a global musculoskeletal framework. It provides treatment effects similar to traditional manual therapy. Furthermore, it does not cause strong pain or muscle soreness resulting from other Western dry needling techniques. Wei has completed both Level 1 and 2 DNP training to provide this dry needling treatment.
