Services
Physiotherapy
Our musculoskeletal physiotherapy addresses back pain, sports injuries, and joint conditions through manual therapy and exercise programs. Treatments include posture correction, pain management, and rehabilitation for workplace injuries. Patients receive individualised care plans focusing on restoring mobility and preventing re-injury through evidence-based techniques.
Remedial Massage
Targeted remedial massage treats muscle tension, sports injuries, and chronic pain conditions using deep tissue techniques. Our therapists employ trigger point therapy and myofascial release to improve circulation, reduce recovery times, and alleviate musculoskeletal discomfort. Sessions are tailored to address specific problem areas identified during initial assessments.
Exercise Physiology
Accredited exercise physiologists design custom programs for chronic disease management and injury rehabilitation. Services include gym-based rehabilitation, hydrotherapy, and home exercise plans targeting diabetes, osteoarthritis, and cardiovascular conditions. Programs focus on improving strength, mobility, and long-term health outcomes through structured physical activity.
Hydrotherapy
Conducted at Glen Eira Sports Centre's heated pool, our hydrotherapy uses water resistance for low-impact rehabilitation. This service benefits post-injury recovery, arthritis management, and mobility improvement through supervised aquatic exercises. The 34C pool provides optimal conditions for muscle relaxation and joint-friendly movement.
Clinical Pilates
Small-group clinical Pilates classes focus on core stability, posture correction, and injury prevention. Sessions utilise reformer equipment and mat work to improve flexibility, balance, and muscular control. Programs are adapted for individual needs while maintaining group interaction benefits for musculoskeletal rehabilitation.

Chris was amazing. I was referred by a family member and he did not disappoint! He gave me exercises to fix my heel pain and Plantar. Ive been in pain for 6 months and after two days of following the exercises, I had my first walk pain free. I highly recommend his services. So happy.

Ive worked with Todd Anderson for a while, having followed him from another clinic. I now travel across town to see him because he is the best physio I have ever worked with, and Ive worked with a few over the years. Todd just gets it. He treats you based on your individual needs and what works for you and your body. Todd has a holistic and multidisciplinary approach to treating people and is always generous with his time and knowledge which is why I have had more success and consistency in training since working with him than I've had in years. I am beyond grateful for his advice and guidance

Amazing staff so helpful and friendly. They go out of their way to help you. They give you the best treatment and advice for your injury. They do not rush you through your appointment and you do not feel like a number. There is a lot of genuine care by the physiotherapists towards their patients.

Ive followed Todd from Frankston SIC and hes been awesome. Myself being a tradie a volleyball athlete and someone who hits the weights daily, Todd is the man i go to when my body is tight and needing a loosen up. Hes great with his overall body knowledge and knows exactly what to do to keep my body going at its best on or off the court and I would not see anyone else.

Could not be more impressed with this fantastic team! My son is supported by the NDIS and needed assistance from a Physio, OT and Dietitian. Healthy Bodies was able to provide all 3 who worked together as a team to make sure my son was able to access the funding and care he needed. My son is improving and is still supported by the team and I cannot speak highly enough about them and the way they have helped my son improve.
