”Group rehab provides a safe space to apply and progress personalised exercise programs under the supervision of a physiotherapist.
Group Rehab
What is it?
Pre and post-operative treatment
Significantly reduce the need for surgical intervention and long-term rehabilitation through the facilitation of a consistent, supervised functional exercise program.
Injury prevention and rehab
Unmanaged dysfunction and a lack of muscular support can lead to injury. Group rehab sessions can help prevent future damage and provide safe rehabilitation from existing injury.
Chronic pain conditions can be managed to help improve quality of life. Periods of acute pain from injuries such as Whiplash can be significantly reduced.
Connection and motivation
Exercising as part of a group provides the opportunity to work towards a common goal. This support and encouragement help to accelerate the healing process.
Long-term progression
Group sessions are an affordable way of incorporating physiotherapy exercises into your everyday life with the support of a trained clinician in a supportive “team” environment.
Group rehab provides a supportive and constructive environment to help accelerate healing and progress physical performance
Whether you are suffering from chronic pain or muscular dysfunction, group rehab sessions can help address these imbalances. The sessions provide space for injury recovery and strength restoration. As the old adage goes: “knowledge is power”. This kind of protocol involves education around how to switch on those deep core muscles, enhance flexibility and build healthy movement techniques into your everyday routine.

Benefits
Free yourself from the self-perpetuating cycle of pain, limited movement and more pain.
Learn how to teach your muscles to “switch on” and put your body back into a state of optimally functioning balance. Repair and rebuild in a group rehab setting alongside other people who can provide support whilst experiencing their own healing journey.
Method
A thorough one-to-one assessment will be carried out to ensure that your tailored treatment plan and goals are set up before you move on to group sessions. Your bespoke exercise program can involve the use of specialist equipment such as Pilates reformers, trapeze tables, Wunda Chairs and TRX straps as well as kettlebells, foam rollers and swiss balls.
Results
Results are often instantaneous. From the first session, you will begin to feel improvements in balance, stability and control. Strength will develop through consistent practice. In the longer-term, you will experience a greater capacity to function and perform in daily life.
Post treatment
Maximising the benefits of this treatment will require patience and commitment. It is easy to get carried away with pushing for results but this can often result in injury. The key here is in working with your therapist to learn your own boundaries and identify milestones to work towards.

New patients might ask us…
Can I book over the phone?
Yes! You can call find the clinic phone numbers at the very top of the page on a desktop, or in the side menu on a mobile.
You will find our Receptionists very friendly and helpful. They will find a time that suits you and make sure you know where to park, how to get there and where we are.
Do I need a doctor to refer me to you first?
You do not need a referral from a doctor to see a physiotherapist however if you do have one please bring it along. We like to communicate with your doctor and any other practitioners involved in your care.
Will you remind me that I have an appointment with you?
Yes! You will have your appointment confirmed a day or so before by text, email or telephone call – whichever you prefer.
How long will my appointment be?
Appointments are scheduled a minimum of 30 minutes apart. We find that in the majority of cases that this is the most appropriate amount of time. In more complex conditions or for multiple injuries longer appointments can be arranged.
Do I need to bring anything with me?
Yes please! Any investigations or scans relating to the condition will help us understand your presentation better. Even if you just have the reports from scans they will be very helpful. Likewise any notes from other Therapists or doctors would be great. If you don’t have anything then don’t worry just bring yourself.
If you have problems related to walking or sport then please bring your runners or boots in for use to look at.
If you have a WorkCover claim or were injured at work then please bring your claim number. If you do not have a claim number but intend to get one please advise our receptionist when you arrive.
I'm running late!
Our aim is that everyone receives the attention they require and while achieving this we attempt to utilise all of our available time. If you are running late please call ahead and our Receptionist will check with your physio to see if it is possible to still see you. There may not be enough time to attend to your needs effectively. If we rush you through your treatment it is at best not helpful to you and at worst unsafe. We can simply reschedule your appointment for a later time.
