Services
Osteopathy
Osteopathy uses hands-on techniques like manipulation and massage to treat musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction. Our practitioners address conditions such as back pain, headaches, and sports injuries by focusing on the body's structural integrity. Treatment includes injury diagnosis, preventative education, and integration with exercise rehabilitation for long-term recovery.
Clinical Pilates
Clinical Pilates combines specialised equipment and tailored exercises to improve strength, flexibility, and posture. Our sessions, led by osteopath-trained instructors, address back pain, pelvic instability, and postural issues. Programs are customised for all fitness levels, from beginners to advanced, with options for private or group classes.
Scoliosis Treatment
We offer non-invasive scoliosis management using the Schroth Method, a three-dimensional exercise program. This approach aims to halt curve progression, reduce pain, and improve posture. Treatment is tailored to individual curve patterns and includes bracing options, with ongoing support for adolescents and adults.
Remedial Massage
Remedial massage targets muscular dysfunctions through deep tissue work, trigger point therapy, and myofascial release. Our therapists collaborate with osteopaths to address chronic pain, sports injuries, and postural imbalances. Sessions last 30 or 60 minutes and are covered by most private health funds.
Exercise Rehabilitation
Exercise rehabilitation prescribes targeted workouts to restore function after injury or surgery. Programs focus on strength, mobility, and resilience, benefiting athletes, post-natal clients, and individuals with chronic conditions. Delivered by osteopaths with expertise in sports science, ensuring safe, progressive recovery.
