Sydney City Physio

Are you looking for a city physio who can assist you with the diagnosis and treatment of pain or injury? If you feel you would like treatment from the best physiotherapist Sydney can offer, you are sure to find what you need at our practice. Physiotherapy or Physical therapy as it is known by some, is a health profession that involves the diagnosis and treatment of disease, pain and disability through physical means such as massage, exercise, heat and other methods. Physio is the short name used to describe the activity and ‘a physio’ as a noun is used to describe a person who is trained to practice the therapy.

A physio will prescribe different physiotherapy treatment or physiotherapy exercises depending on how your injury or complaint presents. Typical patients are those with knee injury, back injury, shoulder injury, neck injury etc. Physiotherapy can be used for injuries suffered in the course of normal activity such as sitting at a computer, lifting children etc. Our physiotherapy clinic also sees many athletic patients that require specific sports physio treatments.

The first step is to identify a physiotherapist that is properly trained and located near to where you live or work. Your physio should be a member of the Australian Physiotherapy Association (APA). If you work in the CBD, you should be able to find a Sydney physio within 6 to 8 blocks of where you work. Aside from the city physio, you will undoubtedly find that there is a clinic near your home also. Your doctor may also be able to recommend a physiotherapist that they know and trust although it should be pointed out that referrals are not necessary.
