Helping you to get back on track
The Avenue Physiotherapy Centre has been a trusted name in providing top-notch physiotherapy services for over three decades. Established in 1986, we initially focused on orthopaedic surgery rehabilitation, working closely with the Melbourne Orthopaedic Group and providing services to The Avenue Hospital. Over the years, we have expanded our scope to offer a wider range of services to the local community of Prahran, Windsor, and the surrounding suburbs.
Our Approach
At The Avenue Physiotherapy Centre, we take a holistic approach to physiotherapy, tailoring our methods to suit your specific needs. We believe in addressing not only your symptoms but also finding and correcting the root cause of your problem to prevent reoccurrence. During your first visit, we conduct a thorough assessment to provide you with a provisional diagnosis in easy-to-understand terms. We then discuss a treatment plan with you, keeping you at the centre of the decision-making process.
