Physiotherapy, in addition to being a form of physical therapy, is an art form and a discipline that has been evolving over many, many years. It was founded on the belief that a person’s physical injury does not have to be the final straw in their lives. Whatever type of injury you have, there are physiotherapy options that will support you feel in your best shape again.

No matter your age, condition, injury, or profession, physiotherapy can be a powerful tool to make the most of your mobility and well-being. Physiotherapy can be a powerful tool to get you back on the sports field, whether you are a student, an office worker, senior citizen or someone who is trying to achieve the highest level of success in your chosen profession.

A Pinch Of Prevention’s physiotherapists have a passion for supporting people achieve their physical best. Your treatment begins with a thorough assessment, followed by sound diagnosis.

What To Expect From Your Physio Appointment?

Physiotherapists work with the musculoskeletal system, and are often recommended by GPs due to their ability to assist to reduce pain and stiffness. People with various conditions may also be treated by physiotherapists. They aim to improve their mobility and aid them to live a better life. If you feel that something ‘isn’t quite right’ or could use some improvement in any way, we’re the team to turn to!

A consultation is a thorough evaluation and informed diagnosis. It also includes a discussion about your medical history. No two patients’ treatment plans will look the same, even if they have the same condition, so it goes to show that physiotherapy truly is about you! You have many options and your physiotherapist will discuss them with you.

Your physiotherapist should create bespoke treatment and management plans that are suitable to your needs after working together on the problems that you have. Your treatment should be centred around you, and the results you want from physiotherapy.

Physiotherapists use a range of techniques which include things like joint mobilisation and manipulation, muscular and myofascial release, trigger point release, manual therapy, dry needling, and exercise therapy. They might also recommend active therapies such as orthotics, taping and hydrotherapy, rebalancing exercises, clinical Pilates or electrotherapy. Your physiotherapist will recommend the right treatment for you. They have carefully considered the options and are confident that they can aid you to achieve your goals.

Answers to Your Physiotherapy Questions

Do I need a referral in order to visit a physical therapist?
A physiotherapist is an autonomous first-contact practitioner. This means you don’t need to be referred by a doctor to see us for acute injuries or chronic pain. A Pinch Of Physiotherapy physiotherapists will gladly work with any healthcare team including podiatrists and dentists and can accept Enhanced Primary Care Plans from your GP.
What qualifications are required for physios?
Physiotherapy in Australia has a strict regulatory board. It requires successful completion of at least one year of university-level tertiary study, active membership with The Australian Physiotherapist Association or AHPRA registration and active membership with The Australian Physiotherapist Association. To maintain active membership within these regulatory bodies, it is a professional requirement that all members undertake a minimum of 20 hours of Continuing Practice Education (CPE) each calendar year. These rules allow patients to be confident that their physiotherapists are board-certified professionals, subject to an ethics code of conduct, and fully informed about current research and techniques in their field.
How many physio sessions will I need?
Your individual goals, needs and condition will determine how many treatments you need. Some may only require a few sessions. Others may need a longer-term, more intensive plan.
What should I wear during a physio appointment?
There’s no need to dress to impress here! Wear what you feel comfortable in and, if possible, something that will allow us access to the affected area.
Is physiotherapy covered by Medicare or any private health insurance?
It depends on your personal circumstances. Physiotherapy coverage may also be available through Medicare under an Enhanced Primary Care plan. Private health insurance may or may not cover physiotherapy. We recommend that you speak with your insurer for advice.
How can I tell if physiotherapy is the appropriate treatment for my injury?
Get in touch with our team if you aren’t sure physiotherapy would be right for your needs. Our physio team will work with you to assess your needs and determine the best possible treatment options, if any, that may be beneficial for you.
