Services and Treatments
Our physiotherapists are experts at providing the following treatments to reduce pain and help your body to recover and function to its fullest potential.
Mulculoskeletal assessment
Your musculoskeletal system includes bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments and soft tissues. Its primary function is to assist your body to support itself, maintain motion, and protect your vital organs.
A thorough assessment of your musculoskeletal system is the key to determining an appropriate and effective treatment.
Our physiotherapists have the training and experience to ensure that rehabilitation and treatment is specific to your unique physiology, and not simply 'recipe-based'.
Exercise prescription
Exercise is an important component of most people’s rehabilitation. The type of exercise needed, the intensity, and duration of your exercise programme will depend on your condition, pain levels, goals, and relevant physical factors.
Our physiotherapists will take the time to assess you thoroughly, take a full health history and develop a plan uniquely suited to your body's rehabilitation.
Pain management
A variety of physiotherapy modalities are utilised at PhysioMatic to help manage pain. Our physiotherapists are experienced in treating both acute and chronic pain conditions.
A thorough examination and specific diagnosis will determine which modalities are best suited to manage your particular pain and a plan of treatment will be created from there.
Strapping/Taping
Strapping or taping your body can be implemented to restrict movement, assist with postural awareness and/or provide sensory feedback for joints and muscles.
The area and presentation of symptoms will determine whether taping is an appropriate part of your management.
Dry needling
Dry needling uses very thin acupuncture needles to trigger certain points in muscles and can be an effective aide to the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions.
Book an appointment with us to discuss your best plan of treatment.
Sport-specific assessment
Many sporting injuries result from tissue overload due to incorrect technique, muscle imbalances, joint restrictions, and the like.
To allow adequate tissue recovery and return to sport, physiotherapists at PhysioMatic will determine the cause behind the tissue overload and address this in treatment.
Horse riding biomechanical evaluation
For riders experiencing musculoskeletal symptoms associated with their riding, a horse riding biomechanical evaluation can be beneficial in establishing the contributing factors behind their symptoms.
Physiotherapists with a horse riding background will perform the assessment. It will include an "on horse" evaluation of the physical load placed upon the rider regarding their physical ability, riding habits and equipment.
The rider will leave with a better understanding of how to reduce the mechanical loads that have likely lead to the development of their musculoskeletal conditions.
Pre- and post-op rehabilitation
Before your surgery, an exercise programme specific to the area being operated on can be commenced for optimal post-surgical outcomes and recovery.
The goal is to hasten recover times and help you to return to full function.
Vestibular rehabilitation
some vestibular disorders result from dysfunction/mismatching of sensory information between the neck, eyes and inner ear.
Our physiotherapists will establish whether your dizziness is amenable to physiotherapy treatment or if a referral back to your GP for further investigation is required.
BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo) is a condition that can be treated here with us.
Balance and fall rehabilitation
Exercises to help improve your balance, strength and agility can reduce the incidence of falls and assist with maintaining independence at home and in the community.
A programme can be tailored to suit your level of function upon presentation. Phone us to book an assessment.
Biomechanical evaluation
Biomechanical evaluations assess the tissue load associated with your occupation or sport to better manage occupation or sport-specific injuries or implement injury prevention solutions.
Ergonomic assessment and solutions
An ergonomic assessment is part of our biomechanical assessments. It allows us to identify drivers of tissue overload that may lead or contribute to pain or injury.
As part of a comprehensive assessment, ergonomic assessments are important in understanding the load your body goes through daily. Ergonomic solutions recommendations will then be a significant part of the management of your conditions.
Orthotics
Orthotics are special shoe inserts that can be used to help alleviate pain and stress to the foot, ankle, knee and hip.
If it's appropriate for the resolution of your symptoms, our physiotherapists can prescribe an off-the-shelf orthotic to help manage your lower limb condition.
