We offer a range of physiotherapy related services including massage, deep dry needling, sports podiatry, pilates, gym based rehab programming, and exercise physiology.

We work closely with our patients to develop individualised treatment plans that address their specific needs and goals.
Exercise Physiology
Our team of exercise physiologists are able to develop gym, pool and home based exercise programs for a variety of issues. We are able to develop specific programs for return to sport and work for your individual needs. We also offer exercise advice and recommendations for weight loss, diabetes, high blood pressure and heart conditions. Our exercise physiologists work closely with our patients to help them achieve their health and fitness goals, and to manage chronic conditions.
Massage Therapy
Our massage therapy services are tailored to meet the individual needs of each patient. We use a variety of remedial massage techniques, including myofascial release, trigger point therapy, neuromuscular technique, stretching or exercise therapy, and lifestyle modification. Our experienced massage therapists work closely with our patients to develop individualised treatment plans that address their specific needs and goals.
Physiotherapy for Seniors
We provide treatment specifically for seniors that is sensitive and appropriate for common conditions such as osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, reduced mobility (often after orthopaedic surgery such as total joint replacements), spinal arthritic or degenerative joint disease. Hands-on treatment can provide immediate symptomatic relief but prescription of the right exercises, stretches or hydrotherapy programs will increase mobility and provide patients with the tools to self-manage their condition.
Pilates Classes
Our Pilates classes are designed to improve core strength, flexibility, and posture. The classes generally include mat work and Pilates equipment, which adds resistance to your workout in a number of different ways including springs, dumbbells and bands. The classes last approximately 1 hour, and have a maximum of 3-4 clients, ensuring close supervision. We recommend attending Pilates classes regularly, at least once per week, to get the full benefits of the program.
Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
Physio Place is a preferred clinic for many of the surgeons located on the Gold Coast. We have extensive experience with a wide variety of orthopaedic surgeries including knee and hip replacement, knee reconstruction and arthroscope, rotator cuff repair +/- subacromial decompression (shoulder surgery), ankle arthroscope, lumber and cervical spine laminectomy, and post trauma surgeries. Our experienced physiotherapists work closely with patients and their surgeons to develop individualised treatment plans that promote optimal recovery and return to function.
Sports Injuries
Physio Place is the preferred clinic for a number of local sports teams, including The Bilambil Jets Rugby League, Currumbin Alleygators, Tweed Valley Kings Premier League Soccer, and Kingscliff Elite Swimming Squad. Our physiotherapists have a wide variety of sports experience and are happy to treat all sports injuries from juniors through to elite level. We use evidence-based techniques to diagnose, manage, and treat sports injuries, and work closely with our patients to develop individualised treatment plans that promote optimal recovery and return to sport.
Video Analysis
We are able to film walking, running, throwing, cycling or any other sport specific skill you require. We then analyse your action in slow motion to allow for a detailed and accurate assessment of your technique and to identify any injury risk factors.
