Neurological

Our physiotherapists assess and provide appropriate treatment for people with movement and function disorders that have originated from problems within the body’s nervous and neuromuscular system.

Such conditions may manifest themselves as:

muscle weakness
poor balance
uncoordinated movements
uncontrolled muscle spasm
tremors
loss of function
decreased sensation

Common neurological conditions treated include:

Stroke/ CVA or TIA
spinal cord & traumatic brain injury
multiple sclerosis
Parkinson’s disease
Post-polio
Muscular dystrophy

This service may be an adjunct to neurological physiotherapy already prescribed.

Working one-on-one in the comfort of your home can reduce anxiety and lead to more successful outcomes.

Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy

Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy is a non-invasive treatment that addresses problems in the musculoskeletal system (including joints, discs, muscles, tendons, ligaments and nerves) that cause pain, stiffness and weakness. The approach relies on accurate assessment, skilled techniques and appropriate advice.

Our physiotherapy services include treatment of the following common conditions:

Back and neck pain

Aged Care and Respite

We provide comprehensive assessment and treatment of common aged care issues in private dwellings or nursing home environments. This includes rehabilitation services for people who are in short term respite care to maximise recovery and improve function before returning home.
