Our Services
PHYSIOTHERAPY
hands-on help
Our physiotherapists are highly qualified health professionals who work in partnership with their patients to help people get better and stay well.
We also work closely with GPs and other health clinicians to plan and manage treatment. GPs refer more patients to physiotherapists than any other healthcare profession. Using advanced techniques and evidence-based care, our physiotherapists assess, diagnose, treat and prevent a wide range of health conditions and movement disorders.
Physiotherapy helps repair damage, reduce stiffness and pain, increase mobility and improve quality of life. Physiotherapy extends from health promotion to injury prevention, acute care, rehabilitation, maintenance of functional mobility, chronic disease management, patient and carer education and occupational health.
PHYSIOTHERAPY/EXERCISE REHAB
getting to the core of it
Pilates is a form of exercise devised over 50 years ago by Joseph Hubertus Pilates.
Although principally physical in nature, it is more than merely an exercise regime. It is a “method” based on a set of very specific principles that focus on the quality and pattern of movements and can be applied in both a rehabilitative and fitness setting.The success of Pilates lies in the application of these principles to either rehabilitate injured muscles, ligaments and/or joints, correct muscle imbalances or as part of a normal exercise program to enhance training and improve reflexes, strength and stamina.
Pilates teaches you a new way of using your body and increases self awareness, making you mindful of the way in which you move in daily activities. Many of our aches and pains are a result of years of bad posture and habits. Pilates addresses the resulting muscle imbalances, pain and dysfunction these postures and habits have caused and facilitates smooth, coordinated and correct movement patterns. Good habits and posture will then be trained and encouraged forever more!
At physiomoves we offer 1:1 (private), 1:2 (semi-private) consultations and group Pilates (1:4) sessions.
YOGA
yoga restores the soul
Vinyasa is a style of yoga characterised by using the breath to seamlessly sequence postures together.
Often described as a moving meditation, this dynamic breath-focused practice will align your body and mind, lengthen and strengthen your torso and raise a sweat!
GUT HEALTH
"All disease begins in the gut"
Hippocrates
By now, you have probably heard about the importance of gut health and how it can affect many other systems and processes in your body. Our microbiome (population of gut organisms) needs to have an ideal balance of "good" vs "bad" bacteria in order to function effectively.
New evidence is constantly emerging supporting the notion that the state of your gut health is fundamental to optimal health.
By addressing the balance of the beneficial and detrimental bacteria, we can assist with:
optimal nutrition
weight management
control of cravings
improvement of digestion
reduction of stress
improvement of mood
mental clarity
enhanced sleep
prevention of chronic illness
hormonal balance
LIFESTYLE MANAGEMENT
balancing zest and zen
Addressing food and gut health is only part of the equation regarding good health. Other aspects of our lives that can impact our overall health include:
sleep
stress
social connection
spirituality
career
self-care
At physiomoves, our integrative approach looks at health from a holistic perspective. Optimal health is comprised of a number of variables and like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, we assist you in putting it all together so you can feel your best physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Together, we will ascertain how well balanced these numerous health parameters are in your life and from there set manageable, realistic goals and make simple changes that you can implement to facilitate change. Small steps with support all the way to guide you towards the pinnacle of good health and happiness.
LAB TESTING
getting the numbers right
Comprehensive testing is available. We can perform blood tests, stool analysis, urine tests and many more to accurately assess the state of your body. Results from these can provide vital information regarding your microbiome, nutritional status, cardiac health, inflammation and metabolism. Based on the findings, we will establish a suitable management protocol to address any dysfunction. Our treatment protocols are holistic in nature, in order to restore optimal health from all perspectives. You will be guided and supported all the way by our experienced and highly trained professionals, utilising a step-by-step approach and manageable goals.

SCHOOLS
Physiomoves is passionate about helping our children. Our school programs aim to educate our children in all aspects of their health; from nutrition, lifestyle, exercise and ideal posture to debunking myths, identifying fad diets and navigating though manipulative marketing material.
Our workshops are interactive, fun and relatable, designed to teach students easy and effective methods to assimilate health and lifestyle strategies into their lives. Our simple and sensible approach is intended to see our children thrive, perform optimally and create sustainable change.
Statistics indicate that the upcoming generation will be the first to not outlive their parents. We think this is an alarming fact. Together we can teach them improved health practices and mitigate this risk.
It is our responsibility to leave a positive and promising legacy.
