MyPhysio Baulkham Hills

Our philosophy is to get to the root cause of the injury or health related issues, educate patients about their conditions and to establish a personalised treatment plan to optimise results and recovery.

Our therapists specialise in treatment of back pain, neck pain, upper and lower limb injuries, sports injuries, nerve impingements and orthopaedic rehabilitation.

What is physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy deals with restoring and maintaining functional movement, reducing pain and promoting health in individuals.

As physiotherapists, we treat a wide array of conditions including:

• Spinal pain and injuries (e.g. disc prolapse)


• Headaches


• Sports injuries (e.g. ligament tears)


• Fractures (e.g. broken arm)


• Musculoskeletal problems (e.g. carpal tunnel syndrome)


• Post-surgical rehabilitation (e.g. following a knee replacement)


• Biomechanical problems (e.g. “flat feet”)


• Arthritic conditions (e.g. osteoarthritis)


• Neurological disorders and diseases (e.g. stroke)


• Cardiothoracic conditions (e.g. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorders)


• Paediatric conditions (e.g. cerebral palsy)

This is just to name a few!

Physiotherapists are extensively trained in manual therapy which means we are “hands on” with our patients. This may include massage and joint mobilisation and manipulation, as well as muscle stretching which we achieve using a wide variety of techniques. To complement our manual skills we sometimes make use of different modalities to reduce pain and inflammation including hot packs, ice, TENS, E-stim, ultrasound and laser treatment. Acupuncture and trigger point therapy is also widely practiced by physiotherapists, Physiotherapists are highly trained in exercise prescription and often give our patients exercises to do at home to help resolve their conditions.

If you have any of the injuries or conditions listed above, a consultation with a physiotherapist is a step in the right direction!
