physio & chiro
techniques we use
During your first appointment, we'll assess your symptoms, movement, and overall function to identify what's causing the problem. Treatment starts straight away using a combination of physiotherapy and chiropractic techniques designed to relieve pain, restore movement, and support long-term recovery. Here are some of the common techniques:
-
![]()
Active Release Technique
Active Release Technique is a hands-on soft tissue treatment that uses targeted pressure combined with movement to reduce muscle tightness and break down scar tissue. It's commonly used to treat problems affecting muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves.

Joint Manipulation
Joint manipulation involves a precise, controlled movement designed to improve joint mobility and reduce stiffness. It's commonly used alongside soft tissue therapy, exercise, and rehabilitation to support recovery and restore normal movement.

Dry Needling
Dry needling uses fine needles to target tight or irritated muscles, helping reduce tension and improve movement. It's commonly used to treat muscle trigger points, support recovery, restore normal muscle function, and reduce ongoing muscle discomfort.

Exercise Therapy
Rehabilitation focuses on building strength, improving movement, and supporting long-term recovery. It's commonly used to restore function, reduce the risk of re-injury, and help you return to everyday activities with confidence.

Carindale Chiropractor & Physiotherapy FAQ
-
No referral is needed. You can book directly with our team, and we'll handle the assessment and treatment planning from your very first visit.
If you do have a referral, care plan, or relevant imaging from your GP, bring it along - it can be helpful context, but it's not required to get started.
-
Initial appointments are generally longer to allow time for a thorough assessment and to begin treatment in the same session. Follow-up appointments are usually shorter, focused on progressing your treatment and checking in on how you're responding.
Your clinician will give you a clear idea of what to expect at each stage of your care.
-
Yes, and in many cases a combined approach produces better outcomes than either discipline alone. Our team is trained to integrate physiotherapy and chiropractic care in a way that's safe, coordinated, and tailored to your specific condition and goals.
-
Wear comfortable clothing that allows your clinician to assess your movement properly. Shorts and a loose top are ideal for most lower-body and spinal conditions.
If you have any previous scans, reports, or medical history relevant to your issue, bring those along as well - they can help speed up the assessment process.
-
Yes. Chronic pain often responds well to a structured physio and chiro approach, particularly when the underlying movement issues or load management problems haven't been properly addressed. Many patients who've been managing long-term pain see meaningful improvement through targeted hands-on care and guided rehabilitation.
-
This depends on your condition, how long it's been present, and how your body responds to treatment. Many patients notice a difference after the first one or two sessions, while more complex or longstanding issues may take several weeks of consistent care to resolve fully.
Your clinician will give you an honest estimate after your initial assessment rather than committing you to a fixed number of appointments upfront.
-
Yes. We regularly work with recreational gym-goers, runners, team sport players, and competitive athletes dealing with training-related injuries, overuse conditions, and performance limitations.
Our physio and chiro team can help you manage your injury while keeping you as active as possible throughout recovery.
