Comprehensive Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy Services at Bodyfix: The Ultimate Care Program for Supporting Your Pain Management, Recovery, and Movement Goals

Musculoskeletal physiotherapy focuses on assessing, diagnosing, and managing injuries and conditions affecting muscles, joints, ligaments, and bones. It is commonly used to support pain management, improve movement, and reduce the risk of future injuries, addressing issues from back pain to sprained ankles.

Our Physiotherapists are highly skilled in providing hands-on treatment and personalised exercise programs aimed at supporting your recovery and addressing contributing factors to your injury. 

Understanding why the injury occurred is a key part to our approach, helping work toward long-term improvements in function and reduced risk of recurrence.  

At Bodyfix, our focus is assisting you return to your best in all aspects of life. Whether you want to be more active on the field, playing with your grandchildren, addressing that long-term back pain or improving your bone density, our team is committed to supporting you at every stage of your journey.

Our approach goes beyond just managing symptoms—we aim to understand the cause of the problem from the start of your treatment. By addressing these underlying issues, we support improvements in strength, mobility, and confidence, and help reduce the change of the problem returning.  

Musculoskeletal physiotherapy focuses on the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of injured or damaged muscles, joints, ligaments, and bones, including the spine. From a sprained ankle to neck pain and headaches, our physiotherapists work hands-on to relieve pain, improve function, and help get you back to enjoying life as quick as we can. We take a comprehensive approach, tailoring each treatment plan to meet your unique needs and goals.

Our physiotherapists can also refer you for further diagnostic scans, such as X-rays, ultrasounds, and MRIs, to ensure we have the most accurate information. This allows us to establish a precise diagnosis and create the most effective treatment plan for you.

All of our health professionals are primary healthcare practitioners, so there is no referral necessary from your doctor unless you are claiming insurance from an accident or workplace injury, or if you are a DVA client.

  • Individualised Treatment Plans: Every client is unique, and so is our approach. We tailor each treatment plan to address your specific condition and personal goals.

  • Hands-On Therapy: We believe in the power of hands-on therapy to relieve pain and improve function quickly, setting the foundation for sustainable progress.

  • Thorough Diagnostics: If needed, we can order diagnostic imaging to guide your treatment and ensure the root cause is addressed or utilise our modern technology to investigate your strengths and weaknesses.

  • Progress is our priority: We’re dedicated to guiding you through every stage of recovery to help you achieve your goals. Our advanced technology and assessment systems provide real-time insights, allowing us to make immediate adjustments and help you move efficiently through the rehabilitation process.

  • You don’t have to navigate rehab alone—we’re here to support you every step of the way. At Bodyfix, our care doesn’t end after a single appointment; we stay connected, follow up regularly, and are always eager to hear about your progress or address any concerns.

  • Our team provides seamless care from acute treatment to full rehabilitation—all under one roof. There’s no need to book at multiple locations or explain your story to different therapists. Our collaborative approach means every therapist on your team knows your journey, ensuring consistent, personalised care that supports your recovery from start to finish.

During your first visit, our physiotherapists will:

  1. Discuss Your Condition: We’ll talk about your current pain, symptoms, and what you hope to achieve through physiotherapy.

  2. Conduct a Physical Examination: We will complete a thorough assessment aiming to determine the course of the symptoms. To achieve this, our team will look at joint movement, muscle testing, nerve health testing or functional movements.

    We utilise advanced tools to understand how your body operates, including our state-of-the-art VALD System*. This cutting-edge technology features custom plates that measure force, speed, height, and weight distribution in the lower limbs, as well as the Dynamo/ Activforce devices for accurately assessing upper limb strength.

    With precise data at our fingertips, we eliminate guesswork and ensure your rehabilitation is tailored to your needs. Every measurement is closely monitored and up-dated at future sessions, allowing us to maximise the effectiveness of your rehab and achieve results in the shortest possible time.

  3. Provide a Diagnosis and Plan: We’ll explain the reason for your symptoms in simple terms and develop a clear treatment plan to relieve pain and restore function. Most injuries require a series of visits over several weeks to achieve lasting results.

Physiotherapy FAQ

Physiotherapy helps improve pain or injury in the bones, muscles, nerves, ligaments, and joints. Through a combination of hands-on treatment and personalised exercise plans, our physiotherapists empower you to take control of your symptoms, enabling safe movement and helping you return to the activities you love.

Yes, we can refer you for X-rays, ultrasounds, and MRIs when necessary. This helps confirm a diagnosis and ensures we’re targeting the right areas for your recovery.

Typically, a standard appointment focuses on one area of concern. If your pain is related (e.g., back pain with leg pain), it can usually be managed within a single session. For multiple injuries, we recommend booking an extended consultation for thorough assessment and treatment.

Of course! If you’ve found a specific technique helpful in the past, like dry needling, let us know. We want to provide you with the treatments that work best for you.

Please bring any referrals, scans, or other relevant information. Dress comfortably, allowing easy access to the affected area—shorts for lower body assessments, or a singlet for back, neck, or shoulder issues.

All of our health professionals are primary healthcare practitioners, so there is no referral necessary from your doctor unless you are claiming insurance from an accident or workplace injury, or if you are a DVA client.
