Our Physio Approach

As an intervention, physiotherapy touches all stages of life, from treating injuries and prescribing exercises to occupational health assessments, pelvic floor care, continence management, and falls risk mitigation. 

At A Pinch Of Prevention, our physiotherapists are committed to supporting you in achieving your personal best, working within what’s possible for your body and goals. Our physiotherapists begin with a thorough assessment and accurate diagnosis, then develop a personalised treatment plan using our 4-step process: Release, Re-educate, Reinforce, and Retain. 

Release: Loosening the primary muscle affecting the joint to restore more natural function. 

Re-Educate: Guiding the muscles involved in movement to function properly, decreasing discomfort and preventing recurring pain. 

Reinforce: Strengthening the key muscles to lower the risk of injury happening again.

Retain: Showing you how to preserve proper form during activities, helping you achieve your goals and sustain progress.

What To Expect From Your Physio Appointment?

Physiotherapists work with the body’s musculoskeletal system and are trusted by GPs to help with pain, stiffness, and mobility. If you’re not feeling your best, we’re here to help you get back on track!

During your initial consultation, we conduct a full assessment and diagnosis based on your symptoms and medical background. Treatment plans are tailored individually—even for the same condition—and your physiotherapist will explain your options before beginning care. 

Treatment and management plans are designed around your unique needs, whether you’re dealing with a sore knee, headaches, arthritis, or a sports injury. Your physiotherapy journey is guided by what you hope to achieve. 

Your physiotherapist may use techniques like joint mobilisation, manual therapy, myofascial release, trigger point release, dry needling, and exercise therapy. Each recommendation is thoughtfully selected to give you the best chance of success.

Your Physiotherapy Questions Answered

Do I need to be referred to a physiotherapist?

A physiotherapist is an autonomous first-contact practitioner. This means you don’t need to be referred by a doctor to see us for acute injuries or chronic pain. 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 does a physio have?

Physiotherapy in Australia is a highly regulated industry that requires successful completion of university-level tertiary studies, active membership with The Australian Physiotherapist Association (APA) and registration with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA). Each member must complete at least 20 hours in continuing practice education each calendar year to keep their membership active. 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 sessions of physiotherapy are required?

It will depend on your personal goals, needs, and treatment plan. Some people may only require a few sessions while others might need an ongoing, long-term treatment plan.

What should I wear for my physio appointment?

Here, you don’t need to dress up! Wear whatever you are comfortable in. If possible, bring something that will allow us the opportunity to treat the affected areas.

Is physiotherapy covered under Medicare or any private health insurance?

This depends on your individual circumstances. Physiotherapy coverage may also be available through Medicare under an Enhanced Primary Care plan. Private health insurance may or may not cover physiotherapy. We recommend that you speak with your insurer for advice.

How do I determine if physiotherapy is right for me?

You can get in touch with us to determine if physiotherapy is for you. Our physiotherapists will assess your needs and recommend the best treatment options for you.
