Acute and Recovery Phase Physiotherapy
The Acute Phase
The early stages of an injury is known as the acute phase. This phase consists of pain, swelling, redness and loss of function to the area. Immediately post-injury is when you should seek the help of a Physiotherapist. A physiotherapist will assist in controlling the inflammation of the joint and use techniques to reduce pain.
Physiotherapists provide a diagnosis to the injury, as well as the appropriate manual therapy needed. We will also recommend if a temporary mobility aid will be necessary.
Physiotherapists assess, treat, educate and manage all musculoskeletal injuries. We focus on hands-on treatment, exercise prescription and self-management techniques that are tailored to your needs. With an evidence-based approach, treatments used will maximize your return to work or sport or your chosen lifestyle activity.

Acute and Recovery Phase Physiotherapy: The Recovery Phase
The next stage of rehabilitation is the recovery phase. This is where treatment starts to become less hands on and more exercise and stretch focused. Gentle exercises to regain the range in movement, as well as restore joint mobility and strength to optimize function.
After your assessment an individualised program to suit your needs will be developed for you. We focus on the practical, achievable and functional exercises with a great emphasis on evidence-based principles.
If you are experiencing a recurrence of acute pain that has lasted longer than three months, have ongoing chronic pain that has not responded to previous traditional treatment or are diagnosed with a chronic health condition, book an appointment with our experienced team of Physiotherapists.
