What is Physiotherapy and how does it work?

Physiotherapy is one way to improve your movement and feeling. However, it is more than just that.

Physiotherapy is not only a physical treatment. It is considered an art and a discipline that has evolved over many years.

It aims to promote healing and meaningful change.

You have a variety of treatment options available, including dry needling, massage, joint mobilisation and many others. We work with you to find the best possible form of treatment for you, so you’ll feel in control as you deserve to be. After all, it’s your body– you’re steering this ship, we’re just here to keep you afloat!

Through the art and discipline of physiotherapy new meaning can be restored back to your life. In time, this may enable you to truly live your life again in a manner that brings you joy. You can live your dreams if you are a passionate footy player, an aspiring dancer or just want to keep up with your grandkids.

No matter what your profession or age, physiotherapy can make your life manageable and improve your 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 variety of conditions can also be assisted by physiotherapists. Their goal is to make people’s lives easier and their bodies function better. We are the team to call if you feel something is ‘not quite right’ or you need some extra support.

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! Your treatment options are diverse and your physiotherapist should discuss them with you before you begin treatment.

Your physiotherapist should develop treatment and management plans that suit your needs so that together, you can address the specific problems you are experiencing. Your treatment should be centred around you, and the results you want from physiotherapy.

Physiotherapists employ a variety of techniques, such as joint mobilisation, manipulation, trigger point relief, manual therapy and dry needling. They may also recommend active techniques such as clinical Pilates, rebalancing, orthotics and taping. 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.
