How we help
Our Physiotherapy Services
Whether you’re dealing with a new injury, a chronic issue, or you’re recovering from surgery, our team is here to help. We offer a wide range of physiotherapy services across our four Melbourne clinics, with consistent, experienced practitioners who take the time to understand your situation and build a plan that works for you.
Below are some of the ways we can support your recovery and long-term goals.
Musculoskeletal
Physiotherapy
We can help you.
Hip & Groin
Clinic
If you’re currently suffering from hip and groin pain, our physiotherapists have specialist expertise in helping you reduce that pain, rehabilitate, and improve your wellbeing.
Pre & Post Operative Physiotherapy
Combining both Preoperative Physiotherapy and Postoperative Rehabilitation
can be the best decision you make around your surgery.
Injury Rehabilitation
and Prevention
We’re here to promote healing and to help you recover from the odd niggle to exercise, work, or sports related injuries, and to help reduce the potential of future injuries.
Return to Sports
& Work Assessments
Formulated in-house by our physiotherapists, our Return To Sport Assessment is a set of thorough testing used to help examine an initial baseline level of mobility, power and control, enabling us to assess your readiness to return to your specific level of activity/performance.
Ergonomic
Assessment
Ergonomics in physiotherapy involves designing or arranging workplaces, products, and systems to fit the people who use them. Our goal is to help reduce your risk of injury by advising an ergonomic setup specifically tailored for your home or office space.
About the Clinic
Physiotherapy in Ivanhoe Since 2003
Australian Sports Physiotherapy has been the local physio clinic in Ivanhoe for over 20 years. We opened our doors in 2003 and have been a part of the community ever since, supporting patients from Ivanhoe, East Ivanhoe, Heidelberg, Eaglemont, Bellfield, Rosanna, and beyond.
Our team of 8 physiotherapists and exercise physiologists combines thorough assessments with evidence-based treatment to deliver long-term outcomes. We don’t chase symptoms. We look at what’s causing your pain and movement issues, then use hands-on therapy, strength-based rehab, and tailored exercise programs to get you back to where you want to be.
Whether you’re recovering from a sports injury, managing a chronic condition, or dealing with post-surgical rehab, our Ivanhoe physios have the qualifications and clinical depth to help.
