Evidence Based Practice

Advanced countries around the world have recognised the cost to society associated with musculoskeletal injury. Most advanced counties, including Australia, have investigated the effectiveness of the many treatments that are available to treat musculoskeletal injury, pain and resultant inability.

The evidence is clear. Joint and soft tissue release can be helpful in the initial stages of treatment. Once tight structures are released the most effective treatment is targeted strengthening exercises with attention to postures and method of work, sport or activity.

The profession of physiotherapy has engaged with evidence based practice. This practice focuses on careful assessment, manual therapy, exercises and activity/work/sport postures and methods.

Sports injuries

Sports injuries

Peter will identify the injured structure then use a combination of strapping, stretching and strengthening to protect the injured tissues, improve associated muscle strength and coordination and review movement patterns.

Spinal pain & stiffness

Spinal pain & stiffness

Neck, thoracic spine and ribs, lower back and pelvis. Pain can result from injuries to muscles, ligaments, tendons, discs and nerves. Pain can occur due to muscle imbalance or poor work/activity methods and postures. Treatment is based on release of tight muscles and joints, combined with exercises and movement education to improve body mechanics.
