By the time a client presents for their first physiotherapy appointment, they have often been living with some level of pain for a period of time. This pain will likely be affecting sleep, work, day to day tasks, exercise, sport and can often take a toll on your overall happiness and quality of life.
Our physios take a hands on approach to your treatment, meaning they will work to give you as much pain relief as possible, ease muscle tension, get your joints moving and address swelling and inflammation.
With a central focus on movement, physiotherapy is the best way to get back doing what you love: walking, running, working, playing sport and living pain free
Physio treatment
At PhyxMe Physio Cairns we offer a wide range of treatment, modalities and specialised services, including
Sports Physiotherapy
When you are injured playing sport you need a physiotherapist who is experienced dealing with sporting injuries. A sports physio understands the significant demands placed on an athlete’s body, the stress this places on specific structures, and the injuries that occur with sport-related contact.
Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy
From time to time we all experience pain and discomfort in our everyday lives.
Injuries, pain and disorders that affect the human body’s movement or musculoskeletal system (i.e. muscles, bones, joints, tendons, ligaments, nerves, discs, etc.) can be phyxed by our musculoskeletal physiotherapists.
We use evidence-based practice to assess, diagnose, treat, and prevent a wide range of musculoskeletal disorders and injuries in our Edge Hill and Smithfield clinics.
Dry Needling
Also known as Western Acupuncture, dry needling is a treatment modality regularly used by physiotherapists in our Cairns clinics to
stimulate the release of pain relieving chemicals
release trigger points and muscle knots to restore length and movement to muscles which have become functionally shortened or in spasm
reduce inflammation and improve blood flow
Dry needling involves inserting fine acupuncture needles through the skin into the muscle in an attempt to restore function to the muscle and fascial tissue.
Complex Diagnosis
Our Senior Physiotherapists are experienced in diagnosing and treating complex musculoskeletal problems, drawing from a wide range of assessment domains and management options.
Workplace Physiotherapy
Ergonomic Assessments
We can review and assess your physical work environment to reduce the risk of injury and maximise productivity. These assessments can also support an injured worker returning to work to minimise discomfort during recovery and to prevent any aggravation of the injury.
Our physiotherapists visit your workplace to conduct the assessment and provide any recommended changes to your setup and work practices. They will assess your posture, physical and muscular work demands, equipment and workplace design and review environmental factors (lighting, noise and temperature).
Real Time Ultrasound Physiotherapy
Using the same non-invasive imaging technology used during pregnancy and diagnostic testing, real time ultrasound (RTUS) therapy shows you how your muscles are contracting as you move and perform exercises.
The team at PhyxMe are passionate about exercise, sport and health and have a comprehensive understanding of phyxing people.
Our focus is to make you stronger, more mobile and able to perform at your best: whether is on the sporting field or day to day life.
