Physiotherapy

What Is Physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is a safe, evidence-based approach to treating pain, injury, and movement issues. It combines hands-on techniques, guided exercise, and practical advice to help your body move better and heal faster.
At Physio Strong Albany, we take the time to understand your specific needs so we can design a plan that works for your body and your goals — whether you’re managing a chronic condition, recovering from injury, or aiming to prevent future problems.
Who Is It For?
Our physiotherapy services are suitable for people of all ages and activity levels. Whether you're recovering from surgery, dealing with a workplace or sports injury, managing chronic pain, or needing support after an acute injury — we can help.
We also support athletes, parents, tradies, and office workers with targeted treatments and ongoing rehab programs.
What to Expect
At your first appointment, we’ll assess your condition, ask about your health history and goals, and start treatment right away. We use a combination of techniques including:
- Joint and soft tissue mobilisation
- Tailored exercises and rehab plans
- Dry needling (if appropriate)
- Taping, posture support, and movement education
Our Approach
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all treatment. Each session is designed to give you time, attention, and a clear path forward. We’ll work with you at your pace, adjusting the plan as you improve.
You’ll always know what we’re working on — and why.
