What is Physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is not only a physical treatment. It is considered an art and a discipline that has evolved over 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.
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. 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 your age, condition, injury, or profession, physiotherapy can be a powerful tool to make the most of your mobility and 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.
Our Physio Approach
A Pinch Of Prevention’s physiotherapists are driven people who want to support you achieve your best physical self. Our physiotherapists will first assess you and then give you a diagnosis. After that, they will create a treatment plan suitable for you following this four-step process: Release, Re-educate, Reinforce and Retain.
Release: The main muscle that is causing 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.
Retain: How to hold your form during movement so you can perform the functions you need to do to move forward 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.

The Advantages of Physiotherapy
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 discomfort can result in a decreased range of motion, which could have a negative impact upon your life. Physiotherapy aims to improve your range of motion by improving and maintaining joint integrity.
Assist in Healing
We want to see you heal from within by reducing pain, enhancing mobility, and providing treatment for your symptoms.
Strengthen Muscles
Strengthening exercises are an important part of physiotherapy. To do this we support you to work the muscle which encourages its growth, and in time, increases its strength.
Prevent Future Injury
We believe that prevention is not only our name but our calling! Prevention is always better than cure. We do our best to serve our patients and ensure they prevent any future injuries.
Improve your quality of life
Life is meant to be enjoyed, so don’t wait a minute longer to get started! Physiotherapy has a way to increase happiness and improve your quality of life.
What can physiotherapy do?
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 assess, diagnose and treat a range of muscloskeletal and orthopaedic conditions including:
- 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 Expect From Your Physio Appointment?
An initial consultation involves a thorough assessment and informed diagnosis and treatment, which considers relevant symptoms and your medical history. 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! You have many options and your physiotherapist will discuss them with you.
Your physiotherapist must develop treatment and management strategies that suit your condition and goals. 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 can use various techniques including manual therapy, dry needling, trigger points release, joint mobilisation and manipulation and muscular and myofascial relief. They may also recommend active treatment such as electrotherapy, taping, hydrotherapy, and clinical Pilates. 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.
