Telehealth Physiotherapy

Telehealth Physiotherapy Services

Movement Laboratory offers telehealth physio services for people living in remote areas or with mobility issues. Our telehealth physio services connect you with one of our physiotherapists to diagnose your injury and provide strategies for recovery, pain management, and mobility. 

With over 145 five-star ratings on Google, we’ve built up a reputation for delivering physiotherapy treatments that go beyond addressing immediate symptoms to ensuring lifelong health and wellbeing. We specialise in physiotherapy for professional dancers and women, delivered by a team of Australian Physiotherapy Association-approved physios. 

Movement Laboratory’s online physio appointments are conducted via video calls – our physios will discuss your injury, guide you through exercises, or follow up on your progress.

The Movement Laboratory Approach

At Movement Laboratory, we’re committed to providing convenient physiotherapy solutions that align with the evolving needs of our patients.

Our approach is focused on delivering outstanding patient outcomes. Through our online consultations, our skilled team excels in diagnosing injuries and guiding effective rehabilitation. We’re adept at identifying and correcting suboptimal movement patterns, offering precise feedback and customised treatment plans through our video sessions.

We’re here to support your recovery journey every step of the way. Our services range from home exercises and mobility drills to partner massage and mobilisation techniques. Our goal is to empower you with the tools and knowledge to confidently manage your condition, ensuring you have our support whenever you need it.

How Telehealth/Online Physiotherapy Works

Starting your physiotherapy journey online with Movement Laboratory is straightforward and designed for your convenience. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to access our expert physiotherapist online:

Submit a booking online or call us at (02) 9029 2449 to schedule a telehealth physio appointment. For online bookings, please select the ‘Online Consult’ option.

We’ll send you a condition form to fill out and return to us for our physiotherapists to understand what you need help with. We may ask you to send photos of the injury before your first session.

You’ll need a laptop or computer with a camera, internet and a quiet private space at home. We’ll send you a link and more info on how to join the online appointment. Make sure you have enough space to move and wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothes that allow us to see the affected area.

Our physio will meet with you online to discuss your injury and guide you through treatment.

If your condition requires specialist attention, we’ll refer you to an appropriate healthcare provider. More importantly, if we can’t assist you, we won’t charge for the consultation.

Remember, our goal at Movement Laboratory is to make your online physiotherapy experience as effective and seamless as possible. The preparation you do before the call is crucial in maximising the treatment and management of your injury.

Can’t attend a physio appointment in person? Our online consultations allow you to access expert physiotherapy advice and treatment from the comfort of your home.

What We Can Treat

Our telehealth physiotherapists can treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including but not limited to:

  • Neck and shoulder pain
  • Back pain
  • Hip bursitis and tendinopathy 
  • Knee pain and stiffness
  • Ligament tears and sprains
  • Women’s health issues (pelvic floor, pregnancy and postpartum physio)
  • Sports injuries
  • Nerve pain
  • Degenerative diseases (osteoarthritis, 
  • ACL and MCL injuries

What to Expect During Your Online Physio Appointment

Our telehealth physio services are open to new and existing clients. 

If you’ve seen us before for physio sessions at the clinic but can’t get to us in person, you can book an online appointment with your physio instead. Your physio will catch up on your condition and continue treatment from where you left off. 

For new appointments, your telehealth physio appointment will start with a brief intro from one of our physios, then a chat about the injury or condition that’s affecting you. From there, our physios will take you through a virtual physical assessment to assess your physical condition. 

Once we’ve got a good understanding of your injury, we’ll provide a diagnosis and create a treatment plan to address the underlying cause of the issue. In future sessions, your physio will guide you through exercises you can do at home to strengthen and increase flexibility in the affected areas. We’ll also give you partner massage and mobilisation techniques you can do in your own time to manage your condition and aid recovery.

First session with Alex May, myofascial therapist at Movement Laboratory and it was firm but gentle. Alex knows muscles and pain and how to release tension without causing more pain. I left feeling taller and more relaxed. Can’t wait to see him again for more painless relief.

Emily has been a fantastic physio. Calm, methodical, compassionate and knowledgeable. She has provided a clear treatment plan that has helped me get moving again after some complex health challenges. Would highly recommend.

I’d happily recommend Justin to anyone dealing with ongoing pain. After seeing three different physios over the past 12 months for my lower back, things were actually getting worse. I kept being told to “stretch more,” but nothing was really improving.

Justin took a completely different approach. He really listened—both to what I was saying and to what my body was telling him. Instead of just treating the symptoms, he worked to understand and address the underlying causes of the pain.

The difference has been incredible. I can now move freely again without the constant discomfort that had become part of daily life.

Justin has been an absolute godsend. If you’re feeling stuck or frustrated with ongoing pain, I can’t recommend him highly enough.

I have been attending Movement Lab as a client of Alex May for pregnancy massage since my second trimester. The service has been really excellent. Alex is skilled, professional, friendly and holistic in his approach. I have really appreciated being able to go somewhere with a focus on client care and ensuring safe practice. Would seriously recommend!

I started seeing Justin for ongoing aches on the left side of my body — my neck, lower back, and hip. Previously, it felt like other physiotherapists focused only on the symptoms, but Justin took a completely different approach. He assessed and treated my body as a whole.

He began by addressing my nervous system and breathing patterns before introducing targeted exercises to correct muscle imbalances, along with craniosacral therapy. The difference has been significant.

I truly can’t recommend him enough. I only wish I had found him sooner. Each session has helped me better understand my body, and I finally feel empowered to move beyond the aches I’d been carrying for so long.

I was advised by my Obstetrician to see a physio and was seen by Emily, who was extremely knowledgable, friendly and made me feel comfortable throughout our assessment. She provided a clear outline for my ongoing treatment and answered all my questions clearly. I would highly recommend Movement Laboratory Physiotherapy, Leichhardt.

Had my first appointment with Emma yesterday as a newly pregnant woman with chronic pain. We went through my medical history in appropriate and not invasive detail.
I feel really good about moving forwards working with her.
Walking is MUCH easier today. Thank you

I’m pregnant and wanted to see a women’s specific physiotherapist to optimise my body for birth. I see EJ and I feel very comfortable with her. She conducts thorough assessments and listens to my concerns. Her support and encouragement is invaluable which always leaves me feeling empowered.

She explained every step of the treatment process clearly, ensuring I understood the purpose behind each exercise and technique.

I highly recommend this practice if you’re after a women’s focused physiotherapist. They even offer remedial massage which I am yet to book in.

I had an incredibly positive experience with my physiotherapy following surgery. From the very first session, the team was supportive, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping me recover. They created a personalised plan that really worked for me, and I noticed steady progress every week.
Thank you Movement Laboratory Leichhardt team.

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 🙂
