Physiotherapy is an evidence-based service that helps improve functional capacity. Physiotherapists at Therapy Circles Australia will collaborate with you to determine what goals you would like to achieve from therapy and how this will be carried out. A key role of a physiotherapist is to conduct a thorough mobility and physical assessment to determine what impairments may exist and how to best address these with therapy.
Physiotherapists can deliver exercise therapy sessions, targeting the identified impairments to help improve your functional capacity and ability to perform activities of daily living. This can be achieved in several ways, such as home-based exercises, gym exercise sessions or aquatic therapy sessions, and will be tailored to suit your individual needs. There is strong evidence to support the effectiveness of physiotherapy in helping to improve muscle strength, joint range of motion, balance and posture. Physiotherapists are also trained in providing pain management, by utilising exercise therapy, hands-on skills (e.g. soft tissue massage and joint mobilisations) and education on pain-reducing strategies.
Physiotherapists at Therapy Circles Australia will work closely with you, your support workers and support networks to implement mobility strategies to help provide you with the best quality of life in the long term. Our physiotherapists can help to obtain assistive technology that will facilitate your goals and capacity to perform tasks of daily living.
We will tailor our Physiotherapy service to help facilitate your individuals needs and goals. We are committed to providing a collaborative therapy treatment plan with you and your support networks.
