Patient Reviews

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!

Steven is the man. Super knowledgeable physio and especially awesome for combat sports athletes as he is one of the few physios in QLD who train seriously themselves. Would definitely recommend him to anyone from gen pop to pro level athletes.

How does physiotherapy support injury rehabilitation?

Physiotherapy can provide a structured approach to injury rehabilitation based on your individual condition and goals.

Your physiotherapist will assess how your injury affects your movement and physical function before developing a treatment plan. Depending on your needs, rehabilitation may combine manual therapy with exercise and other appropriate physiotherapy techniques.

As your recovery progresses, your treatment and exercise program can be adapted. Rehabilitation may focus on progressively improving movement and strength as you work towards returning to everyday activities, exercise, work, or sport.

What role does strength play in injury recovery?

Strength can be an important part of rehabilitation, depending on your individual injury and recovery goals.

Your physiotherapist can assess your current physical function and recommend appropriate exercises to support progressive strengthening. Your exercise program can then change as your movement and physical capacity improve.

For clients returning to sport or physically demanding activities, strengthening exercises may become more specific to the demands of those activities as rehabilitation progresses.

What is manual therapy?

Manual therapy is a hands-on physiotherapy treatment technique that may be included in your personalised treatment plan.

Whether manual therapy is appropriate will depend on your condition, symptoms, and individual needs. Your physiotherapist can determine which treatment techniques are suitable following your assessment.

Manual therapy may be combined with exercise, dry needling, and other appropriate physiotherapy approaches. Your treatment plan can be adjusted throughout rehabilitation based on your movement, physical function, and response to treatment.

Is dry needling available as part of physiotherapy?

Yes. Motion Ease Physiotherapy offers dry needling as one of the available treatment techniques.

Your physiotherapist will determine whether dry needling is appropriate for your individual condition. When suitable, it may be incorporated into a broader physiotherapy treatment plan alongside manual therapy, exercise, and other treatment techniques.

Physiotherapy is personalised to your needs, so not every client will receive the same combination of treatments. Your plan can be reviewed and adapted as your recovery progresses.

Can physiotherapy help me return to exercise after an injury?

Physiotherapy can support clients working towards returning to regular exercise following an injury.

Your physiotherapist can assess your movement and physical function and develop an exercise program based on your current ability and goals. Exercises can be progressed as your movement, strength, and physical capacity improve.

For clients returning to sport, rehabilitation may also include sport-specific exercise and programming where appropriate. Your program can be adapted throughout your recovery to reflect the activities you are working towards.

Can physiotherapy help prevent another injury?

Injury prevention can form part of your physiotherapy and rehabilitation plan.

Your physiotherapist can consider your movement, strength, exercise, and the physical demands of your work or sport when developing an appropriate approach.

For clients recovering from an existing injury, prevention strategies may be incorporated as rehabilitation progresses. Exercise and sport-specific programming may also be used where appropriate as you prepare to return to regular physical activity.

Do you provide physiotherapy rehabilitation after surgery?

Yes. Motion Ease Physiotherapy provides post-surgical rehabilitation.

Your rehabilitation will depend on your individual circumstances and stage of recovery. Physiotherapy and exercise may focus on progressively supporting movement, mobility, strength, balance, and flexibility.

Your physiotherapist can develop a personalised treatment and rehabilitation plan and adjust it as your physical function changes. The program may support your gradual return to everyday activities and, where appropriate, exercise, work, or sport.

How long does injury rehabilitation take?

The length of injury rehabilitation varies between individuals and depends on factors such as the type and severity of your injury, your physical function, individual goals, and response to physiotherapy treatment.

Your physiotherapist can assess your condition and develop a treatment plan based on your needs. Some clients may progress through rehabilitation over a shorter period, while others may require ongoing physiotherapy and exercise.
