1 in 3 people aged 65 years and over fall each year.  Falls are the leading cause of hospital admissions for older people.  Falls can reduce mobility and confidence.  Remaining active can help prevent you from falling.

Our 3 Phase Falls Prevention Program is a home based, individually tailored strength & balance retraining program.  It is a safe & effective evidence based tailored program, designed for you to build strength & confidence, to prevent falls & stay active & independent.  All done in the comfort & convenience of your own home or aged care facility.

Whether your young or old we provide professional assessments & treatments for a range of problems which include muscle & joint pain, neck & back pain, sports specific injuries, orthopaedic post surgical & pre-rehabilitation, child & adolescent injuries, musculoskeletal screening, orthotic prescription, exercise prescription, ergonomic & postural advice, bracing/ support & mobility prescription.

Pre-employment screening can provide you with an in-depth understanding of the individual physical and medical health of your new recruit.  If they need to operate a vehicle, work in a safety critical environment or perform manual tasks as part of the job they are applying for.  It's important to check whether they are physically capable to perform the inherent requirements before you offer them the role.

Do they have any medical conditions ?  Do they have any existing injury that could be exacerbated by their everyday job tasks ?  Are they medical fit to perform the role ?  Are they taking any medication that may impair or impact their response ?

Having a clear understanding of the overall physical and medical health of the individual will assist you with job matching and will help prevent workplace injuries and accidents.  At the end of the day an accident by one employee can put other members of your team, or the public at risk, not to mention the risk you may be imposing on the individual.

Mobile Physio 2U can conduct this type of screening.  Ideally your pre-employment screening will be tailored to your field and will accurately identify the potential an individual may have for an injury or developing a physical disorder from the work they'll be doing.

If you are in need of a musculoskeletal support, boot, brace or customised orthotic we can be of assistance to you.  We will assess your specific need or injury, recommend, prescribe, order and custom fit your device as required.

BPPV refers to innocuous bouts of random dizziness resulting from positional changes of the head, which are the consequence of dysfunction in the vestibular system located in the inner ear.

Fortunately, this dysfunction can by treated with physiotherapy -  the system can be desensitised and restored to normal function.  As a result clients can experience a full resolution of their dizzy symptoms.

Vertigo can have multiple causes.  Many types are not amenable by physiotherapy intervention.  However, BPPV specifically, and cervicogenic vertigo or dizziness (driven by the neck) are 2 types of vertigo that lend themselves well to physiotherapy intervention.  If you suffer dizziness that you think may fall into one of these 2 categories then we will be able to assess, diagnose and treat your condition.

In the event we believe your vertigo to be the consequence of something else we will happily refer you to your GP for further investigations.

Pre Surgery

Pre-operative is the stage before you have surgery that allows you to be fully informed about the procedure and your post-op recovery.  It allows you to feel less stressed about the surgery and ensure a smooth recovery process.  Pre-operative rehabilitation is a vitally important component to anyone wanting to optimise their recovery following surgery.

The goals of pre-operative rehab is to help you be as well-conditioned as possible prior to surgery to enhance your postoperative recovery, and to understand the therapy routine that will be in place after surgery.  The need for rehabilitation after surgery is ofter well appreciated, the importance of exercising before surgery is often overlooked.  Because of the months of pain and reduced activity leading up to surgery, muscles become weaker, walking, balance and exercise tolerance deteriorate.

It is recommended that you take part in a specifically prescribed rehab program prior to surgery to increase muscle strengthened reduce the chance that you will require extended inpatient rehabilitation prior to being discharged home after surgery.

Our physiotherapists will perform a thorough preoperative assessment to determine you physical capabilities and plan the best possible rehab program for you.

Post Surgery

We place a strong focus on education, exercise and manual therapy to help you regain movement, strength and normal function getting you back to the tasks you love quickly and safely.
