Many Australians suffer from neck pain, neck ache or neck stiffness. Neck pain could be an indicator of various pathologies and can be caused by occupation, injury, sport, posture, environmental factors, genetics. Neck pain commonly arises without injury, just from things like poor posture in everyday activities.
A relatively common form of headache is cervicogenic headaches, or headaches arising from the neck. These headaches are distinct from tension headaches or migraines and are ideally suited to musculoskeletal physiotheraphy treatment. We can determine whether your headache is caused by referred pain.
80-90% of us experience Lower Back Pain at some stage. Lower Back Pain can occur due to a multitude of causes including strains, falls and other types of direct trauma, poor posture or work and leisure habits, or can arise spontaneously. At times Lower Back Pain may be a symptom of other pathologies.
We use biomechanical assessment of foot structure and gait analysis to determine if the way you are walking may contribute to a current injury or cause a future one. We can prescribe custom orthotics to correct these biomechanical deficits to alliviate your symptoms and address the underlying cause.
Apart from alleviating your pain as quickly as possible, we will help you allow your body to fully recover from an injury or surgery through comprehensive rehabilitation. We will tailor your programme based on the stages of healing and work towards your ultimate goals. We work with local and metropolitan surgeons and are highly experienced in rehabilitation of all orthopaedic procedures and conditions.

Report
I've been going to Rob Tindale at New England physio for several years. He's been an excellent physio for my chronic injuries, and has supported me to re-engage in, and then push myself in exercise I've often thought wasn't possible due to injury or discomfort. I also appreciate his availability and generosity with his expertise, particularly his willingness to liaise with other health professionals when needed, including my GP and other complimentary specialists.
