There are only a handful of Specialist Physiotherapists in each state and are part of a fellowship of specialist physiotherapists.

Physiotherapy Treatment

Physiotherapy Treatment may consist of a range of techniques such as:

• "hands on" joint mobilisation or manipulation techniques
• Soft tissue massage
• Taping of joints or muscles
• Stretching and/or strengthening exercises
• Clinical Pilates and spinal control (core stability) exercises
• Making thermoplastic splints for hand fractures/sprains

We also provide a musculoskeletal screening service for sporting clubs and individuals. This involves a thorough assessment of the way an individual's body is functioning, with particular emphasis on the requirements of their sport.

This allows us to identify:

• Factors that are causing current injuries or "niggles"
• Factors that may predispose an individual to the development of particular preventable injuries
• Factors which may be restricting and limiting performance
• This has proven to be a valuable tool in assisting athletes to get the most out of themselves and achieve their full potential.
