Sports Physiotherapy
Specialized treatment for sports-related injuries using evidence-based techniques. We address acute injuries, chronic conditions, and performance optimization for athletes at all levels. Our approach combines manual therapy, exercise prescription, and biomechanical analysis to ensure safe return to sport. Clients benefit from tailored rehabilitation programs developed through comprehensive assessments and ongoing progress monitoring.
Injury Management
Comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal injuries. Our systematic approach identifies root causes of pain through detailed assessments, followed by targeted interventions including dry needling, joint mobilization, and therapeutic exercise. We develop individualized management plans that address both immediate symptoms and long-term prevention strategies for sustainable recovery.
Dry Needling
Advanced soft tissue treatment for muscular pain and dysfunction. This technique targets trigger points to relieve tension, improve circulation, and accelerate healing. Combined with movement retraining, it effectively addresses conditions like chronic pain, sports injuries, and postural imbalances through evidence-based clinical application.
Orthotics
Customized foot orthotic solutions for biomechanical issues. We conduct detailed gait analysis and pressure mapping to create devices that correct alignment, reduce pain, and enhance performance. Our approach integrates footwear assessment with functional testing to ensure optimal outcomes for both athletic and everyday activities.
Massage Therapy
Therapeutic massage for injury recovery and performance enhancement. Our techniques target specific muscle groups to improve flexibility, reduce tension, and promote circulation. Sessions are tailored to address sports-related strains, postural imbalances, and general musculoskeletal health through skilled manual therapy interventions.

FANTASTIC SERVICE!!! I had treatment with Ferg today and recommend him to those in need of physio. He is professional, friendly and very knowledgeable. Clearly explained my injury and how to recover from my injury. Easy to get to from Spit Junction

In the process of returning for treatment with Fergus for a couple of long-term injuries, I have been able to recommence a rehab exercise regime with renewable energy - despite not feeling particularly optimistic about the prognosis of my injuries in the first instance. Whilst undoubtedly knowledgeable, and a true embodiment of the principle of life-long learning, Fergus does like to maintain a straightforward approach. Ferg genuinely tries to instil a sense of confidence that if you are willing to 'do' a couple of the most effective exercises you will be able to take back control of your injuries

My first consultation with Fergus for back pain. He was thorough, informative and reassuring. He provided a diagnosis and a management plan, also a relieving massage.

Fergus very kindly found a spot for me today to help treat something urgent. He was very reassuring and pragmatic and gave me follow up instructions so I could continue my progress at home. Just what I needed.

Such a great experience with Ferg. He took his time thoroughly understanding my history to reach a diagnosis, treated me and gave me a management plan which he reviewed with me and made sure I understood. Hes extremely knowledgeable, well versed and super friendly too. The clinic was extremely clean and welcoming and Im feeling so much better already. Would definitely recommend Ferg!

I really liked my consult with Ferg and look forward to continuing to work with him (although the ideal situation would be to not get injured in the first place!). Really appreciated how he communicated about my injury and his approach to managing my recovery. Thanks Ferg!

I could not recommend Fergus more highly. We had not previously met him but I rang as a first time client as our elderly mother, with dementia, required urgent attention on her back. Fergus not only showed care, understanding and compassion in relation to my mother's health issues but more wonderfully, has now fixed her back problem after just a few appointments. As the carer for my mother, Fergus rang me after each appointment and also emailed me to check how things were going with Mum. We could not have asked for more care. Our entire family will now be seeing Fergus when required. With sincere
