Our Approach To Physiotherapy Treatment

Hypertonic Pelvic Floor

At Movement Laboratory, we aim to help patients achieve long-term recovery and meaningful improvements in their movements. We use a four-step physiotherapy treatment model that starts by reducing pain and inflammation (Recover stage), followed by the Restore stage which aids in movement rehabilitation for joint mobility and positioning. 

From there, our Newtown physios identify problematic movement patterns and guide patients to relearn correct movements (Consolidate and Relearn stage). As our patients build greater strength and stability through consistent physiotherapy treatments, they create habits that aid recovery and prevent future injuries.

Physiotherapy Treatments We Offer

Our experienced team of physiotherapists are trained in the Connect Therapy treatment framework, which assesses the body as a whole, and the Thoracic Ring Approach for treatments focused on the thoracic spine and ribcage. 

We also offer traditional physio treatments, including:

 Manual Therapy – Remedial & Deep Tissue Massages

 Joint mobilisation

Dry needling

Shockwave Therapy

 Muscle Energy Techniques

 Dance Physiotherapy

 Clinical Pilates

Pregnancy & Postpartum Physio

 Women’s Health Services

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral to book a physio session?

No, you can book an appointment with our Newtown physios without a referral. However, you will need a referral if you are planning to claim the treatment session with your insurance provider.

How long will each physio appointment take?

The initial session will last for 45 mins. Our Newtown physios use this time to conduct a thorough physical assessment and administer treatment for pain relief. Subsequent physio sessions will be between 30 and 45 minutes. 

How many sessions will I need to attend?

It depends on the nature and severity of your injury. For acute conditions, it may take a few weeks to a month for a full recovery. Chronic conditions may require a longer recovery period.

This place was amazing I was so happy about how I was treated and looked after . I liked how everything was explained to me and it made sense . I was grateful when I told my symptoms to the lovely lady she knew what I was talking about and ways we could improve things and that I wasn’t alone. Also I felt that the environment was pleasant calm and relaxing which is what I needed. I have already taken a few work cards to pass out to some ladies I know . Thank you ???? Looking forward to moving forward

Anastasia is a miracle worker! I'm a keen runner and I started seeing her a few months ago after a couple of broken backs and a (new) torn hammy. She diagnosed my hammy problem quickly and efficiently, provided immediate relief through some deep massage to allow me to survive a few more important runs before my wedding (honeymoon = rest), and has helped me rebuild through focused strength work and home exercises. She obviously cares about her patients and enjoys helping them achieve their goals. I'm now running regularly and pain free again! Thanks Anastasia 🙂
