Soft Tissue Therapy
Soft Tissue Therapy is the assessment and treatment of aches, pains and injuries. The predominant form of treatment is ‘hands on’ manual therapy followed by exercise prescription (and in house referral to our exercise specialists) and self-treatment instruction.
Below are a number of variations. Please hit on the links for further information.
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapists help you get the most out of life. They help you recover from injury and surgery, reduce pain and stiffness, increase mobility and prevent further injury. They listen to your needs to tailor a treatment specific to your condition. As first contact practitioners, you don’t need a doctor’s referral to see a physiotherapist. Physiotherapists, doctors, and other health professionals will often work as part of a team to plan and manage treatment for a specific condition.
Physiotherapists are trained to assess your condition, diagnose the problem, and help you understand what’s wrong. Your treatment plan will take into account your lifestyle, activities and general health.
The following are common treatment methods used by physiotherapists:
- Exercise programs to improve mobility and strengthen muscles
- Joint manipulation and mobilisation to reduce pain and stiffness
- Muscle re-education to improve control
- Airway clearance techniques and breathing exercises
- Soft tissue mobilisation (massage)
- Acupuncture and dry needling
- Hydrotherapy
- Assistance with use of aids, splints, crutches, walking sticks and wheelchairs to help you move around
Exercise Physiology

Our Exercise Physiologists are allied health professionals with Medicare provider numbers.
They can receive referrals from your doctor for treatment on an Enhanced Primary Care Plan, can treat patients privately or provide treatment for Workers compensation claims (including Comcare), CTP claims and Department of Veterans’ Affairs clients.
Pilates
Pilates is an exercise regime that strengthens and stretches the body.
The dynamic routines create strong, lengthened muscles which improve posture and prevent injury.
Pilates trains the mind to understand which muscles should be worked during movement to create more efficient and effective movement patterns.
