What is Physiotherapy?

Visiting physiotherapy means you want to feel and move better. It’s so much more than this!

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. Remember, this is your body. You’re the one who controls it and we are here to support you manage it.

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!

No matter what your profession or age, physiotherapy can make your life manageable and improve your well-being. 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.

The Advantages of Physiotherapy

Physio may aid a range of people with a variety of health concerns, at different activity levels, and in different stages of life. There are many forms of physiotherapy. Each one has its own goal depending on the individual needs and wants.

Reduce Pain

Physiotherapists have a wide range of training in pain management. All of these methods aim to reduce 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 to improve your range of motion by improving and maintaining joint integrity.

Assist with 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

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.

An Improved 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 has a way to increase happiness and improve your quality of life.

What is physiotherapy good for?

Every day Australians, as well as sports professionals, trust physiotherapy to treat a wide range of conditions that can cause pain and reduce mobility.

We can diagnose, treat and monitor a variety of orthopaedic and muscloskeletal conditions like

Neck Pain
Back Pain
Joint Pain
Sciatica
Whiplash
Shoulder Pain
TMJ or Jaw Pain
Strains and Sprains

Not only will physiotherapy treat your symptoms for a specific injury, but your physiotherapist will provide you with long-term health maintenance, and healthcare advice which aims to optimise your quality of life.

What to Look Forward To On 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. 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 can work together if something seems ‘off’ or needs improvement.

Initial consultations include a comprehensive assessment, informed diagnosis and treatment. This includes taking into account your medical history and relevant symptoms. 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.

A variety of techniques are used by physiotherapists, including joint mobilisation and manipulation, muscle and myofascial releases, trigger point release and manual therapy. Dry needling and exercise therapy are also some of the options. They may also recommend active treatment such as electrotherapy, taping, hydrotherapy, and clinical Pilates. Whatever treatment your physiotherapist suggests, they have considered it thoroughly and fully believe that the treatment they recommend will assist you to reach your goals.

Answers to Your Physiotherapy Questions

Do physiotherapists appointments require a referral?

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. A Pinch Of Physiotherapy’s physiotherapists are happy to collaborate with your healthcare team, whether they are podiatrists, dentists, or another healthcare professional. They are also open to accepting Enhanced Primary Care Plans from your doctor.

What qualifications do physios 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. It is a requirement for all members to complete at least 20 hours of continuing practice education (CPE) annually in order to maintain an active membership with these regulatory bodies. This allows patients to feel secure that their physiotherapist remains a board-certified professional. They are subject to an ethical code, remain current with research and techniques and have met all of these requirements.

How many physiotherapy sessions will I need?

It will depend on your personal goals, needs, and treatment plan. Some may only require a few sessions. Others may need a longer-term, more intensive plan.

Is there a desired clothing for physio treatment?

You don’t have to dress up to impress! You can wear whatever you like, but ensure that we can still work on the affected area of your body. You might wear shorts if your knee pain is severe, and a singlet if you have pain in your shoulders.

Are Medicare and private health insurance accepted for physiotherapy?

It all depends on your particular case. Physiotherapy coverage may be available through Medicare with an Enhanced Primary Care Plan, and if you have private health cover this may or may not include physiotherapy– we recommend you check with your insurer if you’re unsure.

How do I determine if physiotherapy is right for me?

Contact us if you are unsure if physiotherapy might be right for you. 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.
