Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy
Musculoskeletal physiotherapy focuses on treating injuries and conditions that affect the body’s muscles, joints, bones, and connective tissues. Our therapists are skilled in diagnosing and managing a wide range of concerns, including:
- Back and neck pain
- Whiplash and shoulder pain
- Rotator cuff tears and bursitis
- Hip, knee, and groin injuries
- Tendinopathies (e.g. tennis elbow)
- Ligament sprains and muscle strains
- ACL and other knee ligament injuries
- Ankle sprains and mobility issues
During your session, your physiotherapist will conduct a detailed assessment and develop a treatment plan tailored to your condition, lifestyle, and goals. All treatment is guided by the latest clinical research and world-class physiotherapy standards to ensure the best outcomes.
Pre and Post-Operative Rehabilitation
Successful surgical recovery depends not only on the procedure itself but also on effective pre- and post-operative rehabilitation.
Our pre-operative programs help you strengthen and prepare your body before surgery, promoting faster healing and better results afterward. Following your procedure, our post-operative physiotherapy focuses on pain management, mobility restoration, and rebuilding confidence in movement.
At Enhance Physio, your rehabilitation plan is completely individualised, whether you’re aiming to return to sport, work, or pain-free daily life. Your sessions may include education, manual therapy, and guided exercises to help you recover safely and efficiently.
Dry Needling
Dry Needling is a targeted treatment that uses fine, sterile acupuncture needles to release tight muscle bands (trigger points), relieve pain, and restore normal movement. By stimulating specific areas of the muscle, dry needling improves blood flow, reduces tension, and accelerates recovery.
The treatment is generally painless due to the extremely fine size of the needles (as thin as 0.3 mm), and patients often feel only a brief twitch or mild sensation as the muscle releases. Combined with other physiotherapy techniques, dry needling can provide lasting relief from chronic tightness and improve flexibility and performance.
Physiotherapy FAQs
What happens on the first physiotherapy session?
You will be greeted by our friendly admin staff and asked to fill out a form including your past history and how your current condition is affecting your life. Your physiotherapist will then perform an indepth assessment by asking you questions around your injury or condition and performing physical testing to assist in diagnosis the cause of your problem. Once the source of your problem has been identified your physiotherapist will begin treatment to assist with easing your symptoms, provide education on how you can manage and recover from your condition and provide exercises for you to complete at home to help get better faster. At the end of your first physiotherapy session your physiotherapist will give you a written plan outlining your diagnosis, how long it should take to get better and what they and you will do throughout treatment to improve your symptoms and condition.
