Who we help
How can physiotherapy
support your health?
Chronic pain
Chronic pain is in epidemic proportions globally; in Australia 1 in 5 live with chronic pain, this includes adolescents and children. What is scary is that this prevalence rises to 1 in 3 people over the age of 65 (Pain Australia). This means one person in every family suffers with chronic pain.
Parkinson's disease
Parkinson's is a progressive nervous system disorder that varies in intensity of symptoms with a unique presentation for each client. Recent research is showing that it affects people in the 40’s onwards and it is not ‘the old man’s disease’ as it was once considered to be.
Headaches & migraines
Our head and neck are part of a complex and delicate system of nerves, bones, ligaments and soft tissue. Treating chronic headaches and migraines requires a comprehensive approach covering areas of structure, alignment, immune system, nervous system, inflammation, connective tissue health, hydration, sleep, eye strain, dental problems and of course stress. We can help guide you in navigating all areas of health that are contributing to your migraines and headaches.
Women's health
Women's bodies are not just a smaller version of a man's body (as was originally thought). A woman's physiology and soft tissue are different, requiring a specialised approach in most areas of health. Women also respond differently to treatment depending on whether they are teenagers, young adults or more mature in age. Without a specialist approach to nurturing a woman through each stage of her life, we miss many of the cues necessary to support her in her health and well-being.
Complex dental problems
Did you know that the way you hold your head, neck and upper body can contribute to jaw and neck pain? Chronic jaw pain is very common and often associated with complex dental problems, chronic neck tension and pain or headaches.
Long-term sports injuries
An athlete’s body can appear to be superior in fitness, function and performance in terms of strength, physical capacity and even flexibility. However, this does not mean they have a healthy connective tissue system. Their functional body just presents one small part of a whole system. Often athletes carry long term soft tissue or joint strains that can benefit from specialised connective tissue work.
Babies & infants
Is your baby having trouble settling or feeding or feels generally out of sorts? Gentle physiotherapy can allow your baby to let go of tight spinal tissue and digestive imbalance that can cause agitation.
Adolescent health
In today's modern world teenagers tend to be under a lot of pressure at school with expectations to achieve. Kate regularly sees young people who are experiencing high levels of stress with associated physical symptoms of tension and pain, particularly in the neck, back and legs.
Support for mature ages
In our elder years we are often more prone to changes in our bone strength, posture and muscular structure. Many have less confidence with their balance and movements and some have a fear of falling. But it doesn't have to be this way. Our elder years can be extremely enriching and we can have great quality of life when we support our body with gentle physiotherapy, body awareness and connective tissue exercises.

Where are you located?
Our clinic is located in Chermside, across the road from the Chermside Shopping Centre.

Is there parking available?
Yes, we have 3 parking options.
1. If you are heading north on Kittyhawk Drive, turn right at the lights in front of our building and once you are in the driveway, take your first right into the underground parking and park in any visitor parks. Note there are also plenty of disabled parks here and this is the best place to park if you have a disability.
2. If the above car park is full go back out to the driveway and turn right and right again to the back of the building and you will see another driveway down into a basement level car park. You will have to walk back up the way you drove in as lifts from the basement to ground floor are not operating to the commercial space yet.
