Injuries We Support
PhysioPhil provides physiotherapy care for a wide range of musculoskeletal and movement-related injuries. These are conditions that affect how your body moves, feels, and functions in everyday life — whether the issue developed suddenly or over time.
Many injuries do not involve a single structure alone. Pain, stiffness, weakness, or reduced coordination can develop as the body adapts to injury or altered movement patterns over time. A thorough physiotherapy assessment looks beyond just where the pain is felt, helping to identify factors that may be contributing to how the injury presents and persists.
Every person is different, and so is every injury. Physiotherapy begins with a professional assessment to understand what may be contributing to your symptoms, how they affect your movement, and what support may be appropriate.
