Physiotherapy can help to reduce the risk of long-term pain and damage, aid in pain reduction and in some cases may even help patients avoid the need to have surgery.

Damaged Pelvis Rehabilitation
Damage to your pelvis as a result of a motor vehicle accident can result in difficulty walking or impairment to your range of movement. In cases like these you may need extensive Physiotherapy or surgery to heal.
Torn or Ruptured ACL Rehabilitation
Depending on the severity of the injury a torn or ruptured ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) can be treated either surgically or non-surgically. Once you have been assessed by your GP, you may need to get further scans done to determine the extent of damage. Once your injuries have been stabilised, Physiotherapy rehabilitation for your knee injury can start.
Dislocation Rehabilitation
If you’ve dislocated a bone, treatment begins with putting the bone back into its socket. Once this is complete your doctor may recommend a sling.
