If you’re looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable physiotherapist, look no further than the Physio and Exercise Lab. I’m incredibly grateful for the care myself and my son have both received. I was recommended by a friend and highly recommended James too.

James and Kade were amazing in getting my back sorted.I was in a lot of pain. After two sessions of massage and dry-needling, plus doing the exercises they prescribed, I was pain-free and running again in 3 days.I'm a big fan of dry-needling.I really liked the fact that they delivered the technical explanation of the muscles and joints and how best to heal them while they "operated". So I got really good value for money.Highly appreciated. Highly recommended.John

Great physio’s that are good at finding the issues, also listening to you and treating you accordingly; even when you’re unusual and react differently to most clients. Can’t recommend enough.

A great practise and always a warm welcome.Marina always gets to the route of the problem, If you have a niggle or an ache then she will locate it and work it out.My monthly 30 minute sessions in there give me the results so I can keep very active being in my late 50's.I do 4-5 45 min sessions of strongfit and liftfit a week which are pretty intense. Marina makes this happen with her magic.Go along to the Lab and it will become a must do thing if you want to keep moving. Love the work Marina & thank you.

I have been going to see James for a multitude of years now, he has treated me for rehab from ankle surgery, scoliosis related injuries and lately severe whiplash from a car accident. James has always been friendly and extremely professional, it is evident that he has his patients best interests at heart and has always delivered great outcomes. Have recommended several family members to him and they have all said the same.5/5

FAQs

Post-operative physiotherapy is essential for aiding recovery after surgery, focusing on restoring mobility, strength, and function. The treatment is tailored to the type of surgery and the individual’s needs, typically involving a combination of exercises, manual therapy, and techniques to reduce pain and swelling. The goal is to promote healing, improve flexibility, prevent complications like stiffness or muscle weakness, and help patients regain full functionality as they progress through recovery.

A typical session may include:

  • Assessment: Evaluating the ankle’s condition, including swelling, pain levels, and range of motion.
  • Customised Exercise Programme: Exercises aimed at strengthening the ankle, improving flexibility, and restoring balance.
  • Manual therapy: Techniques to mobilise the ankle joint and surrounding tissues, aiding in recovery and pain relief.
  • Education: Advice on how to protect the ankle during daily activities and accelerate healing.

Your second consultation, scheduled shortly after the initial visit, offers an opportunity for feedback and questions. A streamlined re-evaluation is conducted through a physical assessment. Subsequent consultations are geared towards supporting your recovery and achieving optimal outcomes for your pain or injury.

The time frame for improvement varies depending on the individual’s condition and response to therapy. Some may notice improvements within a few sessions, while others might need a longer period of consistent therapy.

Wearing comfortable clothing and shoes that allow for movement is recommended. Review our guide on what to what to wear to a physio appointment for more specific recommendations.

It’s also helpful to bring a list of your current medications and a summary of your medical history, including any diagnostic tests related to your vestibular condition.

There are no cancellation fees or 24-hour notice requirements. Just give us a call if you can’t make it to your appointment.

A doctor’s referral is typically not required to visit us unless your condition is associated with Workers Compensation, Motor Vehicle Injury, Veterans Affairs, or a Medicare Enhanced Primary Care plan. In most cases, you can directly schedule an appointment as all our physiotherapists are primary contact practitioners, capable of providing comprehensive care without the need for a referral.
