What is Physiotherapy?

Feeling and moving better is often the goal when seeking healthcare, and physiotherapy certainly helps with that – while also offering a broader range of benefits!

Our Physio Approach

Physiotherapy covers many areas of life, including injury treatment and prevention, education, exercise programs, occupational health checks, pelvic floor support, continence care, and falls prevention. 

A Pinch Of Prevention’s physiotherapists are focused on helping you reach your personal physical best, whatever that may look like for you within your own capabilities. Through detailed assessment and clear diagnosis, our physiotherapists create a tailored plan based on our 4 key steps: Release, Re-educate, Reinforce, and Retain. 

Release: Focusing on the key muscle impacting the joint to address the source of dysfunction. 

Re-Educate: Helping the right muscles move efficiently to ease pain and lower the risk of future dysfunction. 

Reinforce: Building strength in the right muscles to help prevent future injuries.

Retain: Showing you how to preserve proper form during activities, helping you achieve your goals and sustain progress.

Reduce Pain

Strengthen Muscles

Strengthening exercises are a core part of physiotherapy. We help you work the muscle to promote growth and, over time, boost strength.

Prevent Future Injury

Prevention is key at A Pinch of Prevention. We aim to support you in staying strong and avoiding future injuries whenever possible.

What To Expect From Your Physio Appointment?

Physiotherapists focus on the musculoskeletal system and are often recommended by GPs for their ability to help ease pain and stiffness. We also work with a wide range of conditions to help you move better and enjoy life to the fullest. If something feels off, we’re here to help!

During your initial consultation, we conduct a full assessment and diagnosis based on your symptoms and medical background. Treatment plans are tailored individually—even for the same condition—and your physiotherapist will explain your options before beginning care. 

Your physiotherapist will create treatment and management plans tailored to your needs, helping you address specific issues like a sore knee, headaches, arthritis, or sports injuries. Your goals are always at the centre of your care. 

From joint mobilisation and manual therapy to dry needling and exercise programs, physiotherapists draw from a wide range of techniques. Any approach suggested is carefully considered to help you achieve your goals.

Your Physiotherapy Questions Answered

Do I need a referral to see a physio?

Physiotherapists can be considered first-contact independent practitioners. If you have an acute injury, or chronic pain or need to visit us, you don’t require a doctor’s referral. The physiotherapists of A Pinch Of Physiotherapy are more than happy to work alongside your healthcare team; be they podiatrists, dentists, GPs or naturopaths; and are delighted to accept Enhanced Primary Care plans from your treating physician.

What qualifications does a physio have?

Physiotherapy is a highly regulated profession in Australia. This includes successful completion of university-level tertiary education, active membership in The Australian Physiotherapist Association and registration with The Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency. All members must complete at least 20 hours of continuing education each year in order to remain active members of these regulatory bodies. Compliance with these rules allows patients to feel confident that their physiotherapist is a board-certified professional, subject to an ethical code of conduct and remains fully versed with current research and techniques within their field

How many physio sessions will I need?

Based on your goals, treatment plans and individual needs, the number of treatments that you might need may vary. For some, they might only need a few sessions. Others might require a long-term and more comprehensive plan.

What should I wear for my physio appointment?

It doesn’t matter if you dress up or down. Wear whatever you’re comfortable in, and wherever possible, wear something that will allow us to work on the affected area. For example, if you have knee pain you may want to wear shorts, or if you have shoulder pain, a singlet may be a good idea.

Are Medicare and private health insurance accepted for physiotherapy?

This will depend on your specific condition. You may be eligible for physiotherapy coverage through Medicare with an Enhanced Primary Care Plan. If you have private insurance, this may or might not cover physiotherapy.

How do I determine if physiotherapy is right for me?

You can get in touch with us to determine if physiotherapy is for you. Our physiotherapists will assess your needs, and then determine the best treatment options.
