Sports Physiotherapy

Sport is an important part in our Australian lifestyle. At times, injuries occur and in most cases these can be effectively treated, managed and often prevented by your physiotherapist. Physiotherapy management can help you return to your sport safely and more quickly than just "rest and see what happens". Specific exercises are often needed to regain flexibility, strength, balance and co-ordination.

Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy


Physiotherapists have expert training in the diagnosis and management of muscle, joint and nerve dysfunction. Our assessment targets joint stiffness or hypermobility, muscle weakness, over activity or imbalances and nerve sensitivity. Pain and poor mobility can be resolved by correct diagnosis and treatment which may include massage, joint manipulation and gentle mobilising, corrective exercises, and postural education to support the spine and other joints. Your home program will be designed to maintain and build on your improvement in the clinic. Knowing what to do to help yourself recover can make all the difference and improves your independence from extensive treatment.


Post Surgical Physiotherapy

Acupuncture Therapy/ Dry Needling


Acupuncture is a safe and simple therapy which is effective at relieving pain in muscle and joint conditions. Physiotherapists may use dry needling in conjunction with exercises, manual therapies and other modalities to restore pain free movement. Dry needling uses very fine pins to release activated trigger points within the muscle. These trigger points may be referring your pain. We also use massage, heat and gentle stretches together with strengthening exercises to regain a healthy muscle.  ​Move Well


Hydrotherapy


Physiotherapists are experts in the prescription of appropriate hydrotherapy programs to regain strength, mobility, balance and aerobic fitness. This is particularly helpful following joint replacement surgery (hip, knee and shoulder), sports injuries, spinal pain and arthritic conditions. The physiotherapists at the Mundaring Physiotherapy Clinic 9295 6622 are trained in prescribing personalised hydrotherapy programs for you. Sarah Lawrence is also an exercise physiologist, as well as an experienced physiotherapist, and has a particular passion for hydrotherapy.
