Physiotherapy

At Physiosports we have a unique approach to physiotherapy management.

We believe that in order to recover from any injury the patient needs to be actively involved in the process. To this end your initial examination will involve:

1. Completing a thorough and accurate assessment of your injury.
2. An in-depth explanation, including the underlying causes of your injury.
3. Development of an effective treatment program which fits in with your lifestyle and goals.
4. Finally, an implementation of strategies to optimise your recovery including possible referrals to rehabilitation, diagnostic imaging, sports physicians or podiatry.

This all takes time, which is why we utilise 30 minute appointments to ensure that you acquire everything you need.

Physiotherapy has evolved rapidly in the last 10 years. Research has affirmed that our hands are our greatest asset. At Physiosports we rarely use machines with our focus on being a more ‘hands-on’ approach to treatment.

Pain and stiffness are actually symptoms of poor movement strategies. Where most treatments fail is that they focus solely on relieving pain and not addressing the underlying problem. This is why at Physiosports we emphasise the need to change the way you move; we want to cure the condition not treat the symptoms. The combination of ‘hands-on’ therapy and rehabilitation will help you move well and stay well.
