Services
We assess and treat all musculoskeletal conditions and disorders with a special focus on spine and sporting related conditions. We identify the underlying cause of your pain so we can develop a treatment plan that will have long lasting effects rather than simply treating the symptoms. Our physiotherapists have some of the best hands on skills on the Gold Coast and can help with your pain and will work with you to be pain free.
The traditional headache & migraine models used often do not specifically demonstrate how and why your head pains happen, and no cause for your headache/migraine can be found, or no treatment works. Our affiliate clinic Gold Coast Headache Clinic specialises in the Watson Headache(R) Approach which is the only proven hands-on treatment that decreases activity in the 'Headache Centre' of the brainstem.
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is a popular intervention for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. Using special technology shock wave therapy machines will deliver precise mechanical energy pulses to tissues within the body; in turn promoting and stimulating local healing. It can help with the treatment of conditions such as plantar fasciitis and various tendinopathy conditions.
The ForceFrame combines advanced sensors with real time results and analytics. It is the most versatile system for testing muscle strength and imbalance as well as prescribing and performing isometric training to assist with rehabilitation. The HumanTrak was founded on clinical research and leverages a 3D motion tracking system to create a dynamic 3D model of a patients body.
Helps improve sporting performance and enhance your everyday well being by use of specialised techniques to locate and repair damage to muscles, tendons and joints. There are several well being benefits to remedial massage such as reducing soreness, flushing toxins from the body, improved circulation and the promotion of relaxation.

Any response to this will not discredit the experience I've had at this clinic. Just got home and felt sick from the owner's energy. Melanie Roberts (the owner) was absolutely disgusting in her speech and as you can see from other reviews they aren't lying. Go take a holiday lady, chill out. Not very nice hearing a health professional indirectly, passively putting other health professionals down with smirkish remarks. Terrible experience every single time I've been to this clinic. I only went because it was with my private health Medibank. The first time was a while ago (over a year ago) and I

I cannot recommend Mel and her team enough. I have been a patient of Mel’s for just over 2 years now and won’t see anyone else. Her knowledge of body mechanics and physiology is second to none, she delivers each treatment with a smile and actually cares about her patients - making follow up calls herself to check in on progress and recovery. Not only am I a patient, as a PT I regularly refer my new clients presenting with any issues to Mel for treatment and she is a delight to work with. Thank you fir everything Mel. 😊

I was recommended the amazing Mel Roberts by a friend and now my husband and two sons attend Mermaid Sports and Spinal. My sons see Matt and my husband sees Lara. All physios are highly skilled and passionate about their work. Matt has helped ease the pain my 18-year-old experiences due to severe scoliosis. Matt also helped my 15-year-old recover from his AFL injuries. I have attended approximately 15 appointments with Mel. My migraines are now a rare occurrence thanks to Mel’s amazing hands and expertise. If you experience headaches/migraines, Mel is the best. I should also add that my migraine

I have been seeing Belinda Neilsen as my Physio for 3 weeks. In that short time she has managed to eliminate most (if not all) of my debilitating chronic lower back pain. I never thought this was possible and it has been life changing for me. I highly recommend Belinda for her hands-on approach and she is also a lovely person as well =)

A great clinic full of experienced, dedicated and enthusiastic physiotherapists, most of whom I have been treated by at some point in the past six months as my aging frame throws aches and pains my way. Kayla has sorted out my back and put me on the path to a stronger future and Mel keeps my wife's migraines under control. Highly recommend this clinic.

After seeing 2 different physios for an L4, L5 disc herniation for over 6 months with no improvement, I was beginning to lose faith in physios and beginning to lose hope that my condition would ever improve. Fortunately, Gold Coast Sports and Spinal was referred to me by a close friend and I haven't looked back since! Fantastic service from the moment you walk in the door, hassle free bookings, all the physio equipment you could imagine to get you back on track, and staff that know you by name, not by number. This clinic even have a Kanga test to ensure every treatment is tailored to the individual

Mel & the team at GCSP have been so out going, accomodating & have helped me over the past 7 weeks reduce my migraine & headache suffering immensely. I was injured in a car accident in October 2018 & had been seeking other forms of physio treatment the past 12 months with little improvement where my headaches were occuring 3 or more times a week,… accompanied by minimum weekly migraines. After 12 months, with continued pain & little relief from headaches, Mel & the 'Watson Headache Approach' came highly recommended to try & help reduce my headaches, which Mel

Been seeing Mel since October for my hip problems and she’s made a massive long term difference to my functionality. I’ve learnt so much from her and I’m always thinking about what she’s taught me when I train. Insane hands-on skills too! Chella at reception is always super helpful as well! Nothing to fault 🌟

I highly recommend Lara from Gold Coast Sport and Spinal. I’m a very active person and have seen many physios for certain niggles, but no one has been able to fix my body so it’s working as well as Lara. Amazing manual skills, incredible understanding of the body and she’s great fun. I’ve learnt so much and because of her I’m able to keep up all my sports. Thanks Lara

5 stars I saw Lara a little while ago fresh out of surgery on my knee, over a couple of months I had almost full range of motion in my knee and now have full range of motion, where initially it was all but immobilised. The exercise regime she gave me wasn’t too full on and worked wonders and the movement work helped immensely to subdue the pain. Would 100% recommend if you have any joint trouble.
