Back pain is the most costly medical problem in Australia. It is estimated that 70-90% people having back pain at some point in their life. With medical treatment and time off work, it can be a huge burden on society. On a personal level, it can limit your quality of life, disrupt your daily living, cause relationship breakdowns, and the inability to go to work.
The hip joint is one of the most stable joint in the body, and it is designed such way that it can tolerate huge stress and pressure in walking and running. When it is working well, you can do almost anything. However, when there is a problem, it is usually poorly treated and often misdiagnosed. A thorough assessment of the entire lumbo- pelvic- hip region needs to be done to correctly manage hip pain.
The knee consists of two joints: the femoro-tibial, and patello-femoral. The primary weight bearing surfaces are between the femur (thigh bone) and the tibia (shin bone) with two menisci medial and lateral. The patello-femoral joint is at the front of the knee and functions as an extension of the quadriceps muscle.
The shoulder joint has the biggest range of motion in the body. This is achieved with the shape of the articular surfaces within the joint and the involvement of the shoulder blade. For the same reason, it is also the least stable joint in the body. It is surrounded by some very strong muscles that can lift tremendous weights and do handstands.
No referral is needed if you intend to use your private health fund or make upfront payments. However, if you wish to claim your treatment costs on Medicare, Work Cover, or CTP then you will need a referral letter from your GP. Yes of course, in addition to private health fund benefits, we also accept cash, Eftpos, and credit card payments (Mastercard and Visa).
