North Queensland Physiotherapy Centre
Under the Directorship of experienced Sports Physiotherapist Steve Sartori, North Queensland Physiotherapy Centre has been operating in Townsville for over 20 years. Our team of ten Physiotherapists pride themselves in offering a combination of hands-on therapy as well as specific exercise, advice and education.

Patients receive a valuable and personalized level of expertise through an active rehabilitation approach, using a wide range of medication-free techniques to relieve pain, restore movement and prevent further dysfunction. Our team treat people from all walks of life, from elite and local athletes to weekend warriors, as well as general aches and pains, disabilities and conditions impacting your general function.
Services
Physiotherapy is a healthcare service that assesses diagnoses and treats diseases and injuries, as well as working to prevent injury and disability through physical means. Physiotherapists are trained experts in movement and function who work closely with their patients, assisting them to overcome movement disorders, which may be present from birth, acquired through accident or injury, or the result of aging.
Have a look through the FAQs below for answers to questions we are frequently asked by our patients. Yes we do. We will require a current medical certificate along with a WorkCover claim number if it's been processed. Please note if the WorkCover claim is not open and accepted, it is up to the individual to pay for the consult until it's open.
The role of physiotherapy in chronic pain management has developed considerably over the past decade. There is a critical importance of including a non-medication management approach to a patient's overall treatment plan. Our physios have post-graduate training in the complex field of chronic pain management.
With today's busy lifestyle we are all spending longer hours at work and whether you have a heavy physical job or work in more sedentary role, at some stage you may be prone to pain or injury as a result. The physiotherapists at NQPC can assist you with your recovery and help you to stay at or return to work safely and as soon as possible.
Pre-employment screening assessments can determine a potential employee's ability to perform the physical demands of a particular position within a company before they have been appointed. This can determine whether a person's physical tolerance matches the requirements of the job. It is designed to ensure a suitable job match and to reduce the risk of further musculoskeletal injuries in a pre-employment phase.

First time visiting a physiotherapist today due to some nasty shoulder pain. I had a lovely experience from the moment I walked in. Motivated, knowledgeable and very friendly to talk to whilst working through my pain complaint. It didn’t feel rushed at all and am very happy with the follow up care instruction if I need to visit again. Thank you.

I've been going to NQPC for a few years now and wouldn't go anywhere else! Generally I'm treated by Andrew or John who go over and above to ensure my recovery goes smoothly.
I can't recommend them highly enough

Just want to throw 100% support out to this place. Maggie is an amazing physio. Having been to other physios and not get help I was lost for words and she was able to find a solution. I can now do everything I've wanted to and had issues pain free and I thank you for that !

The team at NQPC show a wealth of professionalism and personality with their clients and colleagues.Whilst completing work experience it was obvious that they had developed friendships with every patient and were always creating new ones. This gave the centre heart and every patient was seen walking away with a smile. They also delivered clear and concise instructions for exercises and programmed the rehabilitation to suit the persons lifestyle. They provided information regarding exactly what muscle or ligament had been damaged and how they plan on reconditioning the injury back to normal functionality
