Physio Team
Whether you're a weekend warrior, a competitive athlete, or simply chasing after your kids, pain or restricted movement can stop you from doing what matters most.
By taking a holistic, non-invasive approach to pain and reduced function, you can experience long-term benefits. Physiotherapy helps manage injuries, health conditions, and general wear and tear, getting you back on track to better movement and comfort.
What is
Physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy, or physical therapy, is an allied health service delivered by skilled professionals. Physiotherapists assess your condition in-depth to uncover the root cause of your pain or mobility issues, providing a clear diagnosis and effective treatment plan.
Creating a treatment plan involves addressing the issue, preventing recurrence, and integrating your personal goals, such as sports performance and everyday activities, into your recovery journey.
The treatment process combines several physiotherapy methods, chosen according to your specific requirements. Manual therapy is essential, supported by devices and technology where appropriate. A significant part of treatment includes advice on prevention and tailored exercises to incorporate into your daily routine.
What to Expect at a
Physio Appointment
During your first appointment, our physiotherapists in Canberra will perform a thorough evaluation, discuss your concerns, and review your medical history. They will then create a personalised treatment plan to address your specific needs and goals, potentially involving other health professionals for comprehensive care.
Physiotherapy treatment may include the following:
- Manual therapy, such as joint manipulation and mobilisation, soft tissue work, and stretching.
- Resources and equipment, such as gait analysis technology and VALD Dual force plates, which can provide analysis of strength & movement imbalance.
- Complete Concussion management and treatment.
- Assessing foot function and strapping.
- Education on posture, exercise prescription, and biomechanical issues as well as exercise and stretching prescription, such as core strengthening and stability for the neck and back.
Conditions
We Treat
Physiotherapy is a comprehensive treatment option for a variety of conditions. Our expert physiotherapists aim to relieve pain and improve mobility, while also addressing the underlying factors contributing to your discomfort.
For example, by targeting joint stiffness/hypomobility in your neck, physiotherapy may help to reduce and prevent your migraines. By targeting your poor posture, physiotherapy may improve your pain, range of movement, and even general fatigue.
Some concerns that can benefit from physiotherapy include:
- Sports injuries, including joint, bone, and soft tissue issues.
- Muscular aches, such as neck and lower back pain.
- Reduced or loss of range of movement and motion in certain joints.
- Preoperative preparation (prehab).
- Postoperative rehabilitation.
- Injury prevention.
- General chest and thoracic expansion which may aid breathing.
- Increased falls risk.
- Health conditions that can benefit from exercise and movement, such as osteoporosis and heart disease.
