Physiotherapy that gets to the cause

Treatment is based on a thorough assessment to identify the cause of your condition and the factors contributing to it, using proven, non-surgical techniques. We aim to relieve pain, restore movement and get you back to the things you enjoy.

Our approach

Hands-on treatment and sound advice

Most sessions are hands on, not just a sheet of exercises. We combine treatment with tailored advice and an exercise program, so you rely less on ongoing treatment and lower your chance of the problem coming back.

Our physiotherapists are university trained and members of the APA. We get to know our patients, and many have been coming to us on and off for years.

Treatment may include
Joint mobilisation and manipulation
Soft tissue therapy and release
Dry needling and electrotherapy
Taping, strapping and bracing
Stretching, strengthening and stabilisation
Education and advice
