About the Clinic
We are a local physiotherapy clinic that has served our community for over 20 years. We offer personalised one-on-one treatment designed to get you back to your normal life as quickly as possible.
We have only Chartered Physiotherapists, to guarantee the quality of your care.
We are prepared to treat any back or neck pain, sports injuries, sprains and strains, and whatever else pains you. We also offer an orthotic service where we can assess your feet to determine if you need custom orthotics and get them manufactured for you.
Our Philosophies
We have a few core philosophies that shape how we treat you.
Rehabilitation has to be individually targeted.
We treat you as an individual person – as a whole person – and try to build a strong therapeutic relationship so that you get the best possible outcome for your situation.
You may have a similar pain to the person up the street, but that doesn’t mean that what got them better will work for you in exactly the same way.
Factors that shape our approach include:
- Your genetics – which affect healing, inflammatory processes, muscle bulk, and many other processes in your body.
- Your fitness level – our starting point for rehabilitation differs between a fit athlete and a sedentary office worker.
- Diet can affect healing.
- Sleep patterns – sleep is critical for healing, stress management, and pain control.
- Work environment – posture, habits, and activity levels.
- Other medical conditions that can slow healing or rehabilitation (diabetes, obesity, heart conditions, rheumatic conditions, etc.)
- And many other factors.
This means that what your body needs to get better is very much individual to you.
Rehabilitation is a process, not an event.
Most of the time, rehabilitation is about building up weak muscles, lengthening tight tissues, strengthening tendons, and retraining movement and control. All these things take time – sometimes months – and even a basic soft tissue injury needs a minimum of 6 weeks to heal.
The process of healing – thousands of cells repairing and remodelling tissue – cannot be rushed. It can be optimised, and we help make sure nothing is slowing it down.
Rehabilitation is a team sport.
We don’t get you better. We coach you through the process of rehabilitating your tissues.
We apply hands-on techniques to restore freedom of movement and allow you to exercise. We use pain relief techniques so you can do the rehabilitation activities. We educate you on what you need to know.
Ultimately, the person who does the work is you.
