Services We Offer

At Hobsons Bay Physio, we take a modern approach to injury prevention and rehabilitation.
We are not about the “quick fix” - we create tailored treatment plans for each patient, and work with you to help you get out of pain, avoid the injury cycle, and reach your overall health and wellbeing goals.
We offer a full range of services to help guide and educate you on your rehab or injury journey.

  • We offer running assessments (or a gait analysis) to athletes looking to improve their technique and capabilities.
    Under the guidance of trained physiotherapists, we can identify areas of improvement, and the potential for injury, helping athletes to run faster, for longer.

    We also offer bike fittings to cyclists to help reduce pain and the rate of injury during training, as well as increase performance.
    During your appointment, a highly trained physiotherapist will conduct a physical assessment, and give you a take-home exercise program based on your personal goals.

  • This one-on-one personal training session with your physiotherapist is designed to help you achieve your personal goals, whether that is to decrease pain, decrease your risk of injury, increase performance, or weight loss.

    If you’re unsure of the best way to exercise or your usual form of exercise is unavailable at the moment, book your physiotherapy training appointment so that your therapist can conduct a Physical Assessment and create a program tailored to you.
