Conditions we treat with physiotherapy

Whether it's a persistent ache, a recent injury or an ongoing health condition, we can help.

Some of the conditions we treat include:

  • back pain
  • neck pain, including nerve pain in the arm
  • arthritis and joint pain
  • shoulder pain
  • hip pain
  • knee pain
  • pelvic floor issues
  • pre- and post-surgery rehabilitation
  • soft tissue injuries
  • sports injuries
  • workplace and repetitive strain injuries
  • general mobility and balance issues.

No matter how long you've had your condition, the right treatment can help.

Looking for support with a chronic health condition instead? Our exercise physiology services may be the right place to start. If you're feeling unsure, book an initial consultation and we'll guide you. Sometimes you'll work with both a physio and an exercise physiologist together.

What we do

Our physios are university-qualified and registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency, or Ahpra for short.

They meet national standards for safe, current physiotherapy care. And they work with people managing pain, injury and recovery.

Our physiotherapy treatment follows a clear path.

Assessment

A thorough assessment of your condition, including what may be contributing to your pain or limitation, and a clinical diagnosis.

Your program

A personalised exercise program. This is delivered through supervised sessions on Kieser equipment. Sessions typically run for about 30 minutes, two times per week.

Hands-on care

Treatment to ease pain and stiffness, including massage, dry needling and joint mobilisation.

Support along the way

Education about your condition, advice on managing it, and regular reviews to track progress. Plus help with aids like crutches, braces, splints and moonboots, where needed.

Equipment is a key part of how we work. We use specialised machines, unique to Kieser and engineered in Switzerland. Each machine isolates specific muscle groups and is set to suit your size, comfort and ability. This enables you to train safely and see measurable progress over time.

Why choose Kieser for physiotherapy services?

Kieser is a clinic – not a gym. No mirrors. No music. No pressure. No guesswork. Just a calm, focused and welcoming space where clinical care comes first.

Strength training is at the centre of what we do.

Australian health guidelines say adults should do strength training at least twice a week. It can help you:

  • reduce pain
  • move better
  • support your overall health
  • stay independent, for longer.

What makes us different is our clinical approach to strength training.

Our physios work alongside exercise physiologists and exercise scientists. So you have a whole team supporting your recovery and helping you stay strong for the long term. You won't do this alone.

Our goal is simple: to help you get stronger.

Getting older is inevitable. Losing strength doesn't have to be.

Your physiotherapy journey at Kieser

Your first visit is a 45-minute initial consultation with an Ahpra-registered physiotherapist.

In this session, they will:

  • review your medical history and current concerns
  • assess your movement, strength and function
  • identify what may be contributing to your pain or limitation
  • diagnose your condition
  • discuss your goals with you
  • create a personalised treatment plan.

From there, you'll start a supervised program designed for you.

Our focus is not just on short-term relief. We help you build long-term strength so you can prevent pain and stay active, independent and confident.

Funding and access

You can book in to see a Kieser physiotherapist directly. No GP referral needed.

We work with a range of funding pathways. This helps more Australians get the support they need.

  • Private health – most extras policies include physiotherapy cover. We accept on-site Hicaps claiming.
  • Medicare – physiotherapy services can be subsidised through GP Chronic Disease Management plans, where eligible.
  • DVA – physiotherapy services may be available through Department of Veterans' Affairs cover, where eligible.
  • Workplace and transport accident schemes – physiotherapy services may be available through schemes such as WorkSafe and TAC.
  • NDIS – physiotherapy services may be available through eligible NDIS plans.

If you're unsure about funding and access options, our team can help. We'll work it out together at your initial consultation.
