What does physiotherapy involve?
Our Unique Approach to Physiotherapy
At Five Dock Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Centre, we are dedicated to delivering excellent care to the residents of Burwood Heights. Our team consists of skilled professionals who are adept in assessing, treating, and aiming to prevent spinal, sports, and musculoskeletal injuries. We are committed to improving our clients’ lives and addressing their health issues through a caring and compassionate approach to physiotherapy. Our physiotherapists use state-of-the-art facilities and equipment to provide our clients with the best possible treatment and care.
What sets our unique approach to physiotherapy apart from the crowd is our commitment to personalised, tailored treatment. Your physiotherapist will work closely with you to develop a treatment plan that caters entirely to you and your goals. This plan will take into account your lifestyle, leisure activities, and general health. Treatment is not a one-size-fits-all arrangement, and that’s why we work hard to provide care designed entirely for you and your body. We aim to directly address the source of the problem and help you correct any biomechanical or postural causes wherever possible.

Physiotherapy and Its Benefits
Pain Relief
Living in pain is not something anyone should have to endure, whether it’s from injuries, chronic conditions or other health concerns. Regularly visiting a physiotherapist may provide dedicated support to minimise pain and improve daily life. They aim to manage pain, suggest lifestyle changes, and work towards a more comfortable future.
Increased Mobility and Flexibility
Physiotherapy may offer significant benefits for individuals who are not necessarily dealing with a specific health condition. Even if you simply want to enhance your mobility, flexibility, and overall well-being, seeking the support of a physio may be extremely valuable. Investing in your physical health through physiotherapy could lead to a total transformation of your health and lifestyle.
Minimise Injury Risk
Physiotherapy may be beneficial whether you want to prevent the recurrence of past injuries or avoid future ones. By working with a physio, you can learn ways to protect your health and live an active lifestyle without the fear of injury.
Quick Healing
If you’ve been injured, you’ll likely want to do anything you can to get your active lifestyle back. Anyone looking for a faster recovery from an injury should consider visiting a physiotherapist. Through assessment, examination, and treatment recommendations, a physio aims to help get your health back on track and help speed up the recovery process.
Restorative Therapy
Sustaining an injury or undergoing surgery may result in a lengthy recuperation period. Seeking assistance from a physiotherapist gives you individualised support to aid in your rehabilitation journey with the aim of improving your symptoms, and supporting you to regain mobility. A personalised rehabilitation plan will be created to address the specifics of your condition, your desired recovery objectives, and any obstacles that may arise along the way.
Improve Posture
Modern work environments often hurt our posture. Many people who are in an office or work remotely at home, as well as those who spend extended periods staring at a computer, often have difficulty with their posture. This may result in a range of symptoms such as neck pain, back discomfort, headaches and more. Working with a physiotherapist to correct your posture may relieve these symptoms.

One of the most common conditions we treat at Five Dock Physiotherapy is sports-related injuries. Physiotherapy can help provide a sport-specific injury management plan that is built to minimise the time it takes for you to return to sport. This rehabilitation program will often focus on a combination of joint manipulation, soft tissue mobilisation, and muscle energy techniques. A physio may use treatments such as therapeutic and sports taping as well and could utilise our onsite rehabilitation and gym equipment as a part of your rehabilitation plan.
We offer health screenings to enhance overall wellness. Our sports screenings are designed to be beneficial in averting future issues and reducing downtime. In case of postural problems, our postural screenings aim to forestall complications and design a more ergonomic workstation arrangement.
Should you suffer a fracture, our team of physios aim to help manage and aid healing. Some of the techniques we may utilise include:
- Waterproof fibreglass casts
- CAM boots
- Crutches
- Splints
- Bracing
With our approach, we offer general musculoskeletal physiotherapy as a non-invasive treatment choice for various musculoskeletal injuries, such as peripheral, muscular, and spinal (back and neck) injuries. Our treatment methods may also alleviate headaches, sprains, strains, and aid in general post-operative rehabilitation.
