Physiotherapy
We will help keep you physically well and mobile to live the independent, active life you want.
Our services
Your Community Health physiotherapists have an advanced understanding of how the body moves and what keeps it from moving well. Our staff understand the issues you and your family may face at different times in your life and are experienced in working with you to find solutions.
Physiotherapy services are conveniently available at our three health centres to everyone.
Physiotherapy can assist with a number of issues including musculoskeletal problems, pain, balance and mobility. Following assessment at an individual appointment, evidence based treatment will focus on self management through exercise and education and may include some localised therapy and referral to groups.
We support pregnant and post-natal women with musculoskeletal problems and can provide referral to community exercise groups.
We support children 0-12 years old where there are concerns about:
- Head shape and neck movements
- Delayed movement skills such as sitting and walking
- Abnormal walking including toe walking and in-toeing
- Balance, strength or coordination
- Injury or pain.
