What is Physiotherapy and how does it work?
Physiotherapy is not only a treatment for physical therapy, but also an art and discipline that has developed over 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. There is a form of physiotherapy for every injury. It aims to promote healing and meaningful change.
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. After all, it’s your body– you’re steering this ship, we’re just here to keep you afloat!
You can find new meaning in your life by restoring it through the discipline and art of 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 can be a valuable tool for improving mobility and well being, no matter your age or condition. Whether you’re a student, office worker, senior citizen, or aiming to become the next best sports star the world has ever seen, physiotherapy may be just what you need to assist you to get back out there.
Our Physio Approach
A Pinch Of Prevention’s physiotherapists have a passion for supporting people achieve their physical best. Our physiotherapists approach your treatment via rigorous assessment and sound diagnosis, which is then followed by a tailored treatment regime encompassing our 4-step process of Release, Re-educate, Reinforce and Retain.

Re-Educate: Learn more about the biomechanics and musculature that control the movement you desire. This reduces pain/episodes associated with painful debility.
Reinforce: Strengthening the muscles that are responsible for injury prevention.
Keep: How to keep your form in motion so you can do the tasks you need to make progress in your life.

The Benefits of 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 discomfort can result in a decreased range of motion, which could have a negative impact upon your life. Physiotherapy aims to drive your range of motion by maintaining and improving joint integrity.
Assist in Healing
Our goal is to support you from the inside out. We can aid in reducing pain, improve mobility and manage any condition you might 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
Prevention is more than just our motto. It’s our business! Prevention is always better than cure, so we do all we can to prevent any future injuries.
Increase the Quality of Life
Life is there to be lived, so don’t waste a minute more not feeling like the best version of yourself. Physiotherapy increases endorphins, thus increasing your happiness, quality and enjoyment of life.
