We recommend a 45 minute appointment if you are new to us, or if you are a returning customer with a new problem or injury.

This gives our physios plenty of time to take your medical history, discuss your problem, complete a full assessment, diagnosis and create a treatment plan.

We often have time to start some hands on treatment during this session as well.

You may be asked to remove some items of clothing to enable us to assess your movement and complete effective treatment. Please come wearing clothes you feel comfortable to move in.

If you have had your assessment and are returning so we can check in and continue your treatment, our 30 minute follow up appointment should be what you will need.

This is the service to book if you have already had a Cancer Rehabilitation New Patient Appointment. 

Deep tissue massage techniques to prevent injury, reduce soft tissue tension and maintain optimal condition. The techniques will warm the muscle and increase local blood flow.

Sports massage is also helpful for recovery from workouts and rehabilitation of injuries.

Please note, if you have a new injury or pain, we ask that you book a New Patient Appointment. This is so we have a chance to assess, diagnose and treat your injury, which will be more beneficial to you than just a sports massage.

Physiotherapy after a stroke can help you to learn to move again, so that you can get around more easily and improve your ability to carry out daily tasks.

We can help you to build muscle strength, improve balance, improve your walking or stair climbing, work on transfers in and out of bed or a chair, combat fatigue and help with other symptoms of stroke. We use targeted treatment that is all tailored to you and your exact needs.

Please book a New Patient Home Visit if it is the first time we have seen you, as your physiotherapist will need longer to take a full medical history, conduct a thorough assessment of your movement and symptoms, and write their initial report, including a plan for treatment.

This includes all travel time and expenses, and any follow-up correspondence that your physiotherapist makes with you. Further sessions after this will be shorter as there will be less assessment to complete, and will focus more on rehab progressions.

Vestibular Rehabilitation is designed to help people with dizziness and vertigo arising from the vestibular system, which is our balance centre within our inner ear. Your physiotherapist will assess the cause of your dizziness, and work with you to improve your symptoms. This may include certain manoeuvre's or exercises.

A longer session is needed for this due to the complexity of the vestibular assessment and treatment.
