After my shoulder surgery, I requested through my orthopaedic specialist for a physio centre that could help me rehabilitate to playing golf in 6 months. Working through my recovery with PhysioActive has been an eye-opener! My therapist walks me through every detail from day one and works hands-on tirelessly for every session. I’ve undergone treatment with many physio centres in the past year but PhysioActive is the one that truly delivers the term: PATIENT CARE.

The Expert PhysioActiveApproach
Make sure you choose experts for your injury care so that you recuperate faster without lasting issues. At PhysioActive, we specialise in effectively treating both acute – or sudden – injuries as well as injuries that have slowly developed over time. These include injuries from accidents or other trauma, sports injuries, and repetitive use injuries. A few examples are:
Injuries are very prevalent in the game of golf. Nearly 30% of all golfers will experience back pain after every round. Not to mention other ailments in the knee, hip, shoulder and wrist. Common lower back injuries include:
*Disc injury
*Muscle strain or ligament sprain
*Joint degeneration/arthritis
*Stress fracture
*Dysfunctional movement patterns
Other common injuries experienced by golfers include:
*Golfers elbow
*Shoulder pain – rotator cuff impingement
*Hip arthritis

Absolutely! At PhysioActive, we have applied evidence-based practices to our swing analysis and physical screening, meaning we can precisely see the areas where you can improve on. With a thorough screening process we can help you to create an efficient swing by improving your mobility (range of movement at a certain joint), or stability (the strength of muscle groups supporting certain joints). An efficient golf swing is crucial to better performance. Conversely, a lack of efficiency will cause incorrect/altered movement patterns, overstressing different structures in the body.
