Hi, welcome to Coogee Bay Physio.

We help people with pain, injuries and movement problems get back to doing the things that matter to them.

Whether you’ve just hurt yourself, have something that’s been bothering you for a while, or you’re not quite sure what sort of help you need, we’re here to help you work out the next step.

What sort of problem are you dealing with?

People come to us with all sorts of pain, injuries and movement problems.

Some have just hurt themselves. Others have been putting up with something for months or even years. Sometimes it's obvious what caused the problem — and sometimes it isn't.

Whatever the situation, the first step is understanding what’s going on and what kind of help is likely to be useful.

What happens when you come in?

Your first appointment is about making sense of your problem - what’s causing your symptoms, how it’s affecting you, and what needs to happen next.

We’ll assess your body and movements, explain what we think is causing the problem, and identify whether there’s anything that needs further investigation.

From there, we’ll work with you on a plan to settle your symptoms, restore movement and function, and reduce the likelihood of the problem returning.

What will treatment involve?

Treatment depends on what we find during your assessment and what you need to get back to.

It may include hands-on treatment to help settle pain and restore movement, together with exercise and practical advice to help you move comfortably and rebuild your capacity.

As things improve, treatment should change too — with less reliance on treatment and more confidence in managing your body yourself.
