Our Approach
01
Assessment
We allocate an extended initial consultation (45 minutes) for all of our consultations to allow us to complete a comprehensive assessment, provide you an accurate diagnosis of your injury, alongside any contributing factors which relate to you. This is an important component in getting you pain free and back on track, as many injuries which do not improve are related to misdiagnosis or a treatment plan not tailored to you. We also also discuss an estimate of the time it will take for you to be pain free and back to your physical best.
​
Importantly if we do not feel we can assist, we have a range of referral partners including Sports Doctors, Orthopaedic Surgeons, Podiatrists and other allied health professionals which we work collaboratively with.
02
Treatment
For many presentations, getting pain relief, restoring mobility and range of motion are key milestones in rehabilitation. Our physiotherapists are trained in a variety of manual therapy techniques, including dry needling, joint mobilisation and manipulation, trigger point and soft tissue massage techniques.
In contrast to this, some conditions require a period of immobilisation or protection. We are also trained in a variety of taping techniques, and stock and variety of braces to assist in supporting joints.
03
Rehabilitation
In many conditions, being in pain can result in, or be a result of a lack of physical capacity. Rehabilitation is often a vital component in getting you pain free and performing at your best. As clinic exists within a 500 sq metre gym space, we are able to take you through all components of rehabilitation and observe you complete any exercises prescribed. We'll film any exercises we prescribe to give you confidence that anything you need to do outside of the clinic you do correctly.

​
For some longer term conditions, we also provide a integrated rehabilitation membership, including all components which you may need in getting back to sport. This can be more cost effective option which includes a similar service professional athletes recieve.
04
Achieve Your Goals
Many conditions require follow up consultations to ensure you're on your way to achieve your goals and improving. We will ensure you only see the same physiotherapist, so you do not need to repeat your story multiple times.
We also do not overservice, and will not see you for a single session more then what you need to achieve your goals.
