About Physiotherapy in Bathurst
Physiotherapy promotes wellness, mobility and independent function. Physiotherapists have advanced understanding of how the body moves, what keeps it from moving well and how to restore mobility.
Is Physiotherapy for Me?
Physiotherapists are experts on movement and function. At Physio Max our Physiotherapists are skilled at assessing and managing a range of conditions including:
- Physical conditions such as back pain, arthritis and repetitive strain injury
- Sports injuries
- Work related injuries
- Motor vehicle accidents (MVA)
- Post surgery recovery
- Neck and back pain and other joint injuries
- Dizziness
Physiotherapists in Bathurst can also help you to prevent most of the above conditions by offering advice on posture, exercise, workplace and lifestyle habits.
At Physio Max your Physiotherapists work as part of a team with you and sometimes other health care providers or sports coaches. The success of your physiotherapy program usually requires your co-operation outside of our Physiotherapy clinic.
