+  WHAT IS FXNL REHAB PHYSIOTHERAPY?

Physiotherapy or physical therapy is an allied health service profession provided by physiotherapists or physical therapists to promote, maintain, or restore health and well-being through physical examination, diagnosis, prognosis, patient education, physical intervention, rehabilitation, disease prevention, and health promotion. Essentially, physios are primary care treatment providers near you who work in conjunction with other medical health professionals to address injuries or conditions that limit your ability to move and perform functional activities in your daily life.

​

Physiotherapy is a professional career that spans many specialties including musculoskeletal, orthopaedics, cardiopulmonary, neurology, endocrinology, sports medicine, geriatrics, paediatrics, women's health, chronic pain, and even wound care. Here at FXNL Rehab Strathfield Physio, our main clientele consists of musculoskeletal, orthopaedics and sports rehab but all our therapists are more than qualified to treat most movement-related pain and conditions. See the range of conditions and injuries physios near me commonly treat down below.

+  WHAT DO FXNL REHAB PHYSIOTHERAPISTS DO?

Our expert therapists at our Strathfield physiotherapy centre start by taking a thorough patient history. A lot of useful, important information can be taken from a good history taking, so we usually ask for patients to go into depth about the history of their injury or condition such as "how long you've had your problem", "what you were doing when your first noticed pain", or "the progression of your pain over time". Aggravating and easing factors are taken into account as well as how your pain presents at night, when you wake up, and throughout the course of the day.

​

We then perform a detailed physical examination and marry that with your patient history to diagnose the root cause of your main problem. An essential part of our service is "patient education" - making sure you understand your condition and the factors that led to the problem whether it be mobility & strength deficits, lifestyle factors, work-related postures & ergonomic issues, or understanding the injury itself as it pertains to human anatomy. Our Strathfield physiotherapists will then outline a rehab plan with you, which will consist of manual hands-on therapy treatment in combination with movement rehab exercises to guide you back to feeling 100%. They may also give a rough prognosis where they deem relevant.

 

Too often, we see patients who first present to our Strathfield physiotherapy centre when their issue which was once acute and easily treatable, has now turned into a chronic pain problem with secondary issues that will take much longer to get back to full health. The takeaway message is that "early intervention is always best", and the modern approach to rehab is actually prehab - utilising rehab as a means of injury prevention. As a physio company, we wholeheartedly believe in"taking care of your body now rather than fixing your body later". This is reflected in one of our taglines #BuiltForLongevity
