What is Physiotherapy and how does it work?

When you seek healthcare  you’re hoping to feel and move better– and that’s what physiotherapy aims to provide. 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 work closely with you in order to find the right treatment for you. 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.

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.

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

Your physiotherapist should create bespoke treatment and management plans that are suitable to your needs after working together on the problems that you have. Whether that’s a sore knee, headaches, arthritis, or a sports injury, your treatment is centred around you and what you hope to get out of physiotherapy.

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.
