Helping You Get Active & Stay Active
We know it is essential to help people of all ages to stay active – whether it is doing squats to a chair at home, walking around the house, walking the dog or running a marathon – it could involve staying active in community sport – or joining the local gym.
We are here to make sure you can stay active as it is well known that regular physical activity:
- has significant positive physical and mental health benefits
- in adults, physical activity contributes to prevention and management of diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer & diabetes
- it reduces symptoms of depression and anxiety, improves overall well-being
- in children & adolescents, physical activity promotes bone health, development of muscle and improves motor & cognitive development
For Athletes
Our team of Sports & Exercise Physiotherapists are trained to assess & diagnose your injury – to map out a return to train & play plan – and take you on the journey back to your sport.
We understand that injury takes you away from what you love – we have experience in prescribing modified training plans to keep you involved to maintain strength, conditioning & skill while you complete your return to play program.
Return to play plans:
- assess the likely reasons or causes leading to the injury + the risks of recurrence (same injury occurring again) or subsequent injury (another area injured on return to your sport)
- strength programs – prescribe strength & capacity work to bullet proof the muscle or joint from a recurrence of injury
- conditioning programs – prescribe fitness programs that will not impair healing or aggravate your injury to reduce the impact of inactivity during injury. This may involve hydrotherapy or pool running, upper body conditioning, Alter-G running (weightless) or a rehab run program.
- sport specific rehabilitation – our experienced team will provide a rehabilitation program that is specific to the needs & demands of your sport.
