We treat pain that is generated by the muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints and bones of the human body. Our philosophy is simple: Assess a patient to gauge where the pain has originated from. Treat the pain manually to change the dysfunctions. Prescribe the right movements to strengthen, lengthen or reposition the affected areas.
Then Manage by giving you the correct movements to do in your own time so you can help yourself recover. We treat all types of Musculoskeletal injuries such as spinal rehabilitation, from back aches to post operative fusions. We treat Pre and Post-operative knees, hips and shoulders. Such as ACL repairs, Rotator cuff tears and joint replacements.

Services
We specialize in Acute and Chronic spinal conditions: From workers who injure themselves at work, major car accidents, playing sport or mums and dads at home doing day to day activities. Some examples of the conditions we treat are sciatic leg pains to chronic back conditions. A niggle in the back that started yesterday to a complete new injury that started as a result of you lifting a box at work today.
Our Private Hydrotherapy pool is of great benefit to our patients. With an average temperature of 34 degrees this is a great tool for all of your pre and post operative rehabilitation. Our sessions are private, and all one on one. We do not do group sessions therefore you have our 100% attention. You will learn hydrotherapy skill you can use for life.
Its easy to be confused as to who to go to for a certain in injury. I can guarantee you now we treat everything musculoskeletal. If it is related to the muscles, joints, bones, ligaments, tendons we deal with it. Of course we certainly have our little favourite things to treat such as spinal rehab, pre and post operative, headaches, scoliosis, but we also treat hips, knees, shoulders and necks.
At Illawarra Rehabilitation Clinic we do manual therapy. This is a key element in most musculoskeletal rehabilitation programs. When appropriate the results can be outstanding. Using a combination of soft tissue techniques and mobilizations, followed by our strengthening rehabilitation protocols you can have the best of both worlds.
Exercise therapy is an integral part of any rehabilitation program. The benefits of exercise are immense and so wide spread across all facets of our health. In our clinic we use the modality of exercise for a number of reasons. In following a post operative protocol. In restrengthening a body during a pre operative phase.

I have been undertaking rehabilitation at IRC for approximately 2 years, after suffering horrific complex injuries as a result of an accident involving a motor vehicle. Nick & his team have played a huge part in my recovery with manual therapy, exercise physiology & physiotherapy. Great facilities & the hydrotherapy pool is beautiful. I would highly recommend the team at IRC.

I have been going to the IR clinic since I had my car accident in 2016. They have done a fantastic job rehabilitating me, even up to yesterday keeping my neck limber. Nick and his team have been very caring and professional in all aspects of there business. Working with delicate injuries takes alot of time. I am very grateful for all the team there. I would highly reccomend them to anyone who has had an injury.

Had a similar experience to one of the other reviewers. Had been plagued with neck/back issues for about a year and had seen multiple other therapists to no avail. Nick picked up on the issue within seconds of assessing me. He is extremely knowledgeable and the best physio I have been to in the area (and I’ve been to a few). Highly recommend!
