Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy

Musculoskeletal physiotherapists have undergone advanced post graduate training in addition to their physiotherapy degree to assist in the accurate assessment and diagnosis of musculoskeletal injuries, including low back and neck pain, pelvic girdle and hip pain.

With a strong commitment to being the best at what we do, the physiotherapists at our clinic have a strong commitment to regular, ongoing professional development. The result is a clinic that is delivering the most up to date, evidence based care.

Our physiotherapists always look at the underlying and driving mechanisms that drive your musculoskeletal conditions, not just focussing on the presenting symptoms. In this way we can help not only your immediate concerns, but empower you to achieve better health and prevent further injury.

After a comprehensive history and examination, treatment techniques and self -management strategies are used that are individually tailored to achieve the ultimate goal for each patient.

Techniques include:

Patient education to ensure that you have a clear understanding of your condition and rehabilitation

Posture and Movement analysis

Functional task analysis and correction

Gentle hands - on techniques such as spinal and joint mobilisation and manipulation if indicated

Specific exercise prescription to improve your strength and spinal stability

Soft tissue techniques

Real Time Ultrasound assessment and retraining

Specific to general fitness programs

Breathing and Relaxation strategies
