What we commonly treat for people from Lidcombe
Knee pain
Common triggers include running, football and stairs. Treatment may include soft tissue therapy, joint mobilisation, dry needling, shockwave for tendon problems and a progressive strengthening and landing-control program. We also check footwear and training load.
Ankle pain
Common triggers include rolled ankles and court and field sport. Treatment includes joint mobilisation, soft tissue therapy and, where suitable, IASTM or dry needling, but the main work is a staged strength, balance and landing program. We will tell you when you can run, jump and cut again.
Lower back pain
Common triggers include desk-bound days, lifting and heavy training weeks. Treatment is matched to your findings and may include spinal adjustment or mobilisation, soft tissue therapy, dry needling, and a graded exercise program. We give you clear guidance on what to keep doing, so you are not left resting and losing fitness.
We also treat shoulder, hip, ankle, elbow and headache problems, and sports injuries of all kinds.
