Physiotherapy can be defined as a treatment method that focuses on the science of movement and helps people to restore, maintain and maximize their physical strength, function, motion and overall well-being by addressing the underlying physical issues.

As professionals, our physiotherapists are experts at providing physiotherapy treatment for:

1. Preventing injury and disability;
2. Managing acute and chronic conditions;
3. Proving and maintaining optimal physical performance;
4. Rehabilitating injury and the effects of disease or disability;
5. Educating patients to prevent re-occurrence of an injury.

Advanced Physiotherapy for Athletes

Our highly trained physical therapists are also closely involved in the care and wellbeing of athletes including recreational, semi-professional and professional participants. This area of practice encompasses athletic injury management under 5 main categories:

1. Acute Care – assessment and diagnosis of an initial injury;

2. Treatment – application of specialist advice and techniques to encourage healing;

3. Rehabilitation – progressive management for full return to sport;

4. Prevention – identification and address of deficiencies known to directly result in, or act as precursors to injury, such as movement assessment

5. Education – sharing of specialist knowledge to individual athletes, teams or clubs to assist in prevention or management of injury

We employ a variety of techniques, depending on the nature of the injury or problem we are treating. The most common physiotherapy techniques are:

• Manual manipulation: Moving joints and soft tissue helps to improve circulation, drain fluid from the body, and relax overly tight or muscles with spasms.

• Electrical nerve stimulation: Small electrical currents delivered to affected areas helps to suppress and block pain signals to the brain.

• Acupuncture: Needles stimulate the nervous system and work to dull pain, release muscles, boost the immune system and regulate various body functions.

• Demonstration: Teaching proper movement patterns allows patients to help heal themselves.

• Functional testing: Testing a patient to assess his/her physical abilities.

• Device provision: Prescription, fabrication and application of assistive, adaptive, supportive and protective devices and equipment.
