About Us
Our Philosophy
We want our patients to:
1) understand what is wrong with them and why their problem has occurred
2) receive evidence based care and be made aware of all treatment options
3) be given an individualised treatment program aimed at restoring them to their highest level of function as quickly as possible
4) be given strategies to help prevent recurrence of their disorder
Our Difference
We have both male and female practitioners and treat dizziness as well as musculoskeletal disorders. Alastair is a specialist musculoskeletal physiotherapist, who is trained in the assessment and management of complex disorders and has particular expertise in the assessment and management of persistent painful problems, dizziness disorders and providing second opinions.
We aim to:
1) educate you about your disorder; including your diagnosis, the cause of the problem, what you are able do whilst you are recovering and demonstrate how you can be best involved in your recovery.
2) get you back functioning at an optimal level as soon as possible.
3) take the time to appreciate and address ALL aspects contributing to your disorder with the highest standard of care rather than just treating the symptoms.
4) work closely with both our patients and other health care providers.
