A Pinch Of Physiotherapy could be what you need
Have a sore lower back? Bad ankle? Are you feeling the effects of your desk job? We are glad that you have made the first step toward listening to your body. People of all ages, from all walks of life, seek physiotherapy to relieve their pain and improve their functioning. That’s exactly what A Pinch Of Prevention aims to do.
What is Physiotherapy and how does it work?
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 born out of the recognition that a physical injury doesn’t need to be the beginning and the end of a person’s existence. Whatever the injury, there is physiotherapy that can ease your discomfort and feel better. It promotes recovery and helps you return to the activities you love.
A variety of treatments are available including massage, dry needling and joint mobilisation. We will work with you to determine the best treatment option for you. This will allow you to feel in complete control. You are in control of your body. We support you to ensure you’re on the right track.
Your life can take on a new meaning by using physiotherapy. In time, this may enable you to truly live your life again in a manner that brings you joy. If you’re a dedicated footy player, an aspiring dancer, or want to keep up with the grandkids, living your dream may be closer than you think!
Physiotherapy is a useful tool that can maximise your mobility and well-being, regardless of your age, condition or injury. Physiotherapy could be the right treatment for you, whether you’re a student or an office worker or senior citizen.
Our Physio Approach
A Pinch Of Prevention’s physiotherapists pride themselves on being highly motivated individuals that are determined to assist you to be the best version of yourself. Your treatment begins with a thorough assessment, followed by sound diagnosis. Then, a customised treatment program is created that includes our 4-step process: Release, Re-educate, Reinforce and Retain.
Release: The primary muscle that causes the dysfunction.
Re-Educate: The biomechanics of the musculature responsible for the desired movement, to operate more efficiently so as to decrease pain/episodes of painful debility.
Reinforce: Strengthen the appropriate muscles to reduce the risk of future injury.
Keep: How to keep your form in motion so you can do the tasks you need to make progress in your life.
A Pinch of Prevention offers physiotherapy treatment to areas including Camp Hill, Carindale, Coopers Plains, Greenslopes, Holland Park, Mansfield, Robertson, Rochedale, Sailsbury, Sunnybank, Tarragindi, Wishart and surrounding areas.

How You Can Benefit From Physiotherapy
Reduce Pain
Physiotherapists are well-trained in many different forms of pain management, all of which aim to reduce feelings of pain.
Improve Movement
Stiffness and/or pain may lead to a reduced range of movement, which may have a negative impact on your life. Physiotherapy aims at improving your range of motion and maintaining joint integrity.
Assist in Healing
We aim to support your healing from the inside out, assisting you to reduce pain, improving mobility, and managing any conditions you may have.
Strengthen Muscles
Strengthening exercises play a major role in physiotherapy. To do this we support you to work the muscle which encourages its growth, and in time, increases its strength.
Prevent Future Injury
A Pinch of Prevention isn’t just our name, it’s also our game! We believe prevention is better than treatment, and we will do everything we can to prevent future injuries.
Increase the Quality of Life
Life should be lived to the fullest – so don’t wait to seek treatment for any of your concerns! Physiotherapy increases endorphins, thus increasing your happiness, quality and enjoyment of life.

Your physiotherapist will not only treat symptoms of a specific injury. It will also provide long-term health maintenance and advice for you to live a healthier lifestyle.
What to Look Forward To On Your Physio Appointment?
A consultation is a thorough evaluation and informed diagnosis. It also includes a discussion about your medical history. Even if the patient has the same condition, no two treatment plans will be created the same. This goes to show that physiotherapy is all about you. There are many treatment options available and your physiotherapist should talk with you about them before you start treatment.
Your physiotherapist will develop treatment and management plans to meet your specific needs. It doesn’t matter if you have a sore knee or headaches. Your treatment will be tailored to you and what you expect 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 may also recommend active treatments such as rebalancing exercises, clinical Pilates, orthotics, taping, hydrotherapy and electrotherapy. No matter what your physiotherapist recommends, they have done extensive research and believe the recommended treatment will be the best for you.
