Physiotherapy
At Stay Tuned, our Physiotherapists can assess, diagnose, and treat people with any issue, including lower back pain, headaches, sports injuries, arthritis, and pre- or post-natal issues. Our highly trained team can help solve and avoid many painful problems you may encounter throughout life.
Your practitioner will assess your condition, diagnose the problem, and help you understand the cause. They will then develop a treatment plan considering your lifestyle, leisure activities, and general health.
Our Physiotherapists can also assist with the following health issues:
- Women’s health (DRAM, Mastitis and blocked milk ducts, pelvic girdle pain, pre-and post-natal issues)
- Musculoskeletal and Orthopaedic rehabilitation (post-joint surgeries or replacements, return to sport)
- Neurological and Vestibular Rehabilitation (BPPV, post-stroke rehabilitation)

Your consult
Your initial consultation may be up to 45 minutes in length. Your Physiotherapist will take a thorough history of your condition, injury, or presenting issue along with a complete medical history to ensure they can consider all the possible causes and your whole-body health and function.
Our promise is to help you understand what, why and how. What your condition, injury or issue is, why it may have occurred, and how together we will address it.
Our goal is not only to have you feeling better but to help you function better and provide knowledge and strategies to help prevent issues from recurring.
