What is musculoskeletal physiotherapy?

Musculoskeletal physiotherapy encompasses a wide range of body parts and conditions. “Musculo” refers to the muscles, while “skeletal” refers to bones and joints, as well as the tendons and tissues in between. Our Forster Tuncurry Physiotherapy & Allied Health physiotherapists are qualified and have extensive experience in treating a range of different conditions.

The importance of a musculoskeletal physiotherapy assessment

The only way that we can be sure of what is going on, is to carry out a detailed personalised assessment. Therapists will spend the time it takes to thoroughly uncover the underlying causes to your pain or injury. This might include tests on balance, flexibility, range of motion and tests using the latest state-of-the-art technology. From there, we can work on a treatment plan designed to manage your problem, support pain relief and assist your rehabilitation journey. Based on your condition we might include a combination of any of the following:

Clinical rehabilitation exercises
Exercises to reduce pain
Joint manipulation
Dry Needling
Electrotherapy
Clinical Pilates

The Forster Tuncurry Physiotherapy & Allied Health "Pain to Performance" philosophy

All of our experienced musculoskeletal physiotherapists follow our three phase "Pain to Performance" philosophy. This approach is designed to manage your pain and then identify and address poor movement patterns that have contributed to your injury. This reduces your chances of further injury and allows us to implement a programme to help you be your best.

This means that even though every case is different, everyone gets the same quality of care.
