Services
As the longest established physiotherapy clinic in the Inner West, Active Physiotherapy Newtown has been providing our clients with best practice manual therapy and rehabilitation, for over 30 years! Our team hold clinical excellence in the fields of low back and pain, neck pain, exercise therapy, sports physiotherapy, Women's Health and post-surgical rehabilitation.
The Temporo-Mandibular Joint (TMJ) or jaw is a complex mechanical joint system which allows us to chew, speak, yawn and perform many other daily functions. Most people don't realise that the jaw is intimately related with the neck, inner ear, teeth and base of the skull and works with these other structures to create normal movement patterns.
All clinical staff at Active Physiotherapy have experience treating amateur sportspeople. Several of our clinical staff have worked in professional sporting environments. Some of our staff have been elite sportspeople in sports such as lifeboat rowing and Triathlons. In saying this, our robust assessment techniques allow us to assess and treat your issues effectively, even if we have never played your sport.
At our clinic, we have leading Women's Health Physiotherapists ready to help you. If you are pregnant, have just had your baby or are looking to get back to running, Yoga, Pilates or any other activity our staff are here to guide you. Using our real time ultrasound, we can visualise your core muscles and pelvic floor muscles to see if they are working optimally.
The relationship between the human body and a bicycle is complex and influenced by many things. Your riding position can directly impact power, performance and efficiency. A poor position can also cause you to have pain. If you love your cycling and want to get more out of it, consider getting one of our physiotherapists to assess you closely on your bike.

I highly recommend the team at Active Physio. My specific experience was with John and Marty and they are excellent. Their aim is to get you better so you don’t need to continue seeing them which can often be the opposite to other physiotherapists. I have sent a number of different friends and family members to see them and everyone has the same high opinion. I don’t even live in the area anymore and I continue to go there whenever I have hurt myself.

Dr John Panagopoulos is extremely knowledgeable, personable and charismatic. Every time he does a particular cranial treatment on me, I feel like I have a different body and that everything is fixed. He should really have his own television show/text book.
Brett Goodman is also very knowledgeable and friendly. He articulates himself well and makes his instructions for exercises easy to understand. It seems like he really wants you to heal. Also, Trish the receptionist is very patient and lovely to talk with.
This place is well worth visiting if you have any aches or pains. I cannot recommend

Brett Goodman is simply be best physio I have ever had. I presented with L4/L5 back strain and a long-term rotator cuff issue on my right shoulder. Brett did not just treat the immediate problems, but helped me rehabilitate and re-train to avoid the systemic patterns I was doing that cause these issues in the first place. Following his guidance and exercises - I'm now stronger and more mobile than I have been in years!
Thanks mate!

John & the team at Active Physiotherapy - quite frankly, I can't recommend them highly enough. They are amazing! Over the years I have been coming to Active for treatment on various ailments including ankle, knee, wrist and the most debilitating my back (yes, I may be a little accident prone but we only live once so you can't wrap yourself in cotton wool) and the service, treatment and care has been second to none. Before I found this practice I had seen various other physiotherapists who had never really solved the core problem and therefore recovery was always painful and lengthy. John has always

Had an amazing time at Active Physio Newtown - would absolutely recommend! The entire team was professional and the overall communication with the clinic was excellent.
Shaun saw me for just under a year treating my ACL reconstruction - he was incredibly knowledgeable and I was absolutely confident in his ability to get me back up onto my feet doing the things I love. An awesome guy, I had nothing but positive experiences with him.
Thank you Shaun and the team!
