Our musculoskeletal specialists have undergone additional training that allows them to use their expertise to assess, diagnose and treat injuries to your muscles, joints, bones, and nerves at a high level.
Common conditions treated using musculoskeletal physiotherapy include hip, knee, and shoulder injuries, as well as back and neck pain. Treatment usually consists of hands-on techniques, such as massage, exercise, joint mobilisation, and manipulation.
Another specialty at our physiotherapy clinic in O’Connor is manipulative physiotherapy which concerns the management and treatment of conditions associated with the spine (neuro-musculoskeletal conditions). These conditions include headaches, numbness, pins and needles, sciatica, vertigo, and neck and back problems. Treatment involves a range of hands-on therapies to aid your recovery, including high-velocity thrusts to manipulate joints that are stiff and resistant to a full range of movement.
Our physio services in the Fremantle area include the diagnosis, assessment, management, treatment, and prevention of sports injuries. Common injuries treated at our clinic include ACL tears, shin splints, sprains and strains, Achilles tendon injuries, pulled hamstrings, rotator cuff injuries, fractures, and dislocations. Our sports physiotherapists have a special interest in shoulder, hip, ankle and knee injuries that are frequently suffered by athletes. Treatment focuses on relieving pain, maximising functionality, and preventing the recurrence of the injury.
Next Wave Therapy also offers post-op rehab at our physiotherapy clinic in O’Connor. Many rehab patients have experienced shoulder reconstructions, rotator cuff repairs, tendon repairs, hip replacements, ACL repairs, ankle reconstructions or spinal fusions. We develop a customised rehabilitation plan that’s tailored to your specific needs with the goal of speeding up your safe recovery post-surgery.
We offer a combination of classical Japanese acupuncture and modern dry needling. We find that this combination is ideal for treating a wide range of sports injuries and musculoskeletal conditions. This hands-on therapy involves inserting exceptionally fine, stainless steel needles into trigger points along your muscles and tissues to reduce pain and improve movement and functionality. Conditions that respond well to this therapy include headaches, calf cramps, whiplash, sciatica, neck and back pain, osteoarthritis and many more.
If you are recovering from an operation, want to improve your fitness or sports performance, or just need help with your daily living tasks, our expert physios provide customised exercise rehabilitation programs to help you achieve your goals, quickly and safely. From Clinical Pilates to strength and conditioning, resistance training and athletic performance, we design a program that results in a strong, energised and healthy body.
With one of the few specialist physiotherapists in Perth, we are often asked to provide a specialist physiotherapy review by GPs, insurers or other health providers. This review provides an alternative opinion about a patient’s diagnosis, management, treatment and prognosis. Often it’s required because a patient is not improving as expected but can also be necessary because the condition is complex and a diagnosis has not been confirmed.
