I’ve been seeing Steve at Motion Ease Physiotherapy for couple of months now. And I cannot recommend him enough. From the very first session he took the time to understand my concerns and created a customized plan to treat my Ankle injury. His expertise in physio therapy and dry needling have made a huge difference in my recovery process. And I have noticed significant improvements in my mobility and pain levels. If you are looking for a knowledgeable and a caring physio – Steve is the one to see!

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I see a physiotherapist near Greenslopes?

If you are looking for a physiotherapist in Greenslopes, Motion Ease Physiotherapy provides physiotherapy care for Greenslopes clients at our Woolloongabba clinic, located at 28 Wellington Road, Woolloongabba QLD.

Our physiotherapy services support clients experiencing pain, sports injuries, sporting injuries, musculoskeletal injuries, and a range of musculoskeletal conditions. We also provide rehabilitation following surgery, injury prevention, and support for clients returning to work or sport.

Your physiotherapist will assess your individual condition and movement before developing a tailored treatment plan based on your symptoms, physical function, and recovery goals.

How does a physiotherapist develop my treatment plan?

Your physiotherapy treatment plan starts with understanding your individual condition, symptoms, movement, and goals. The same injury can affect people differently, so treatment is personalised rather than following one approach for every client.

Your physiotherapist will consider how pain or injury affects your physical function and the activities you need or want to perform. Depending on your needs, your tailored treatment plan may combine manual therapy, exercise, and other appropriate physiotherapy techniques.

As your recovery progresses, treatment can be reviewed and adjusted. This allows your rehabilitation and exercise to develop alongside changes in your movement, strength, and function.

What types of injuries can physiotherapy help with?

Physiotherapy can support the treatment and rehabilitation of a range of musculoskeletal injuries. Motion Ease Physiotherapy works with conditions and injuries affecting areas including the back, lower back, neck, shoulders, knees, hips, and ankles.

We also provide physiotherapy for sports injuries and sporting injuries. Your treatment will depend on the nature of your injury, how it affects your movement, and your individual recovery goals.

Physiotherapy treatment may include manual therapy and exercise to support movement, strength, physical function, and rehabilitation. Other appropriate treatment techniques may also be incorporated based on your individual needs.

Do you provide sports physiotherapy?

Yes. Motion Ease Physiotherapy provides sports physiotherapy for clients recovering from a sports injury or sporting injury.

Sports injury rehabilitation considers both the injury itself and the physical demands of the sport you want to return to. Your treatment may include manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, progressive strengthening, and sport-specific exercise and programming where appropriate.

As rehabilitation progresses, your physiotherapist can adjust your exercise program based on changes in movement, strength, and physical function. Motion Ease Physiotherapy also provides combat sports injury rehabilitation and return-to-sport support.

Can physiotherapy help improve movement and physical function?

Improving movement and physical function can be an important part of physiotherapy and rehabilitation. Pain, injury, and musculoskeletal conditions can affect how comfortably or confidently you perform everyday activities, exercise, work, or sport.

Your physiotherapist can assess your movement and determine how your condition is affecting your physical function. Treatment may then combine appropriate physiotherapy techniques with exercise based on your individual needs.

Exercise and rehabilitation can focus on areas such as movement, strength, balance, and flexibility where appropriate. Your program can progress throughout your recovery as your physical function changes.

What is manual therapy, and when is it used?

Manual therapy is one of the treatment techniques that may be incorporated into a physiotherapy treatment plan.

Whether manual therapy is appropriate will depend on your injury or condition, symptoms, and individual needs. It may be combined with exercise and other available physiotherapy techniques as part of your rehabilitation.

Rather than relying on manual therapy alone, your physiotherapist can develop a broader treatment plan focused on your movement and physical function. Treatment can be adjusted as you progress through recovery and work towards your individual goals.

How is exercise used during injury rehabilitation?

Exercise can form an important part of injury rehabilitation. Your physiotherapist may recommend exercises based on your injury, current movement, physical function, strength, and recovery goals.

An exercise program can be progressed gradually as your rehabilitation develops. Depending on your needs, exercise may focus on improving movement, building strength, supporting balance, or preparing you for specific physical activities.

For clients recovering from sports injuries, sport-specific exercise and programming may be incorporated where appropriate. This allows your rehabilitation to consider the physical demands of your chosen sport as you work towards returning to activity.

Can physiotherapy help me rebuild strength after an injury?

Exercise and progressive rehabilitation can help clients work on rebuilding strength following an injury.

Your physiotherapist will consider your current physical function and stage of recovery before recommending appropriate exercises. Your exercise program can then progress as your movement and capacity improve.

Strength may be one part of a broader rehabilitation plan that also considers movement and function. For active clients, exercises may become more specific to the physical demands of work, exercise, or sport as recovery progresses.

What treatments are available as part of physiotherapy?

Motion Ease Physiotherapy provides several treatment options that may be incorporated into your physiotherapy care depending on your individual condition.

Your treatment plan may include manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, dry needling, cupping, soft tissue massage, and sport-specific exercise and programming. The appropriate combination will depend on your symptoms, movement, and rehabilitation goals.

Your physiotherapist will determine which treatments are suitable following an assessment. Your physiotherapy plan can then be adjusted as your condition and physical function change throughout recovery.

Can physiotherapy support recovery after surgery?

Yes. Motion Ease Physiotherapy provides post-surgical rehabilitation to support clients through their recovery.

Your rehabilitation will depend on your individual circumstances, the procedure you have undergone, and your stage of recovery. Physiotherapy and exercise may focus on progressively restoring movement, mobility, strength, balance, and flexibility.

Your physiotherapist can develop a personalised rehabilitation plan and adjust your treatment and exercise as your recovery progresses. The aim is to support your physical function as you gradually work towards returning to everyday activities and, where appropriate, exercise, work, or sport.

How long does physiotherapy rehabilitation take?

There is no fixed timeframe for physiotherapy rehabilitation because every injury, condition, and client is different. The length of your recovery can depend on factors such as the nature of your injury, its severity, your physical function, and your individual goals.

Your physiotherapist will assess your condition and discuss a treatment plan based on your needs. Some clients may require physiotherapy for a shorter period, while others may benefit from longer-term rehabilitation.

Your progress can be regularly reviewed, allowing your treatment and exercise plan to change as your movement, strength, balance, and physical function improve.
