Injury prevention starts with balance, building strength, mobility, and stability while avoiding overloading your body. Regular movement, good posture, and smart training habits go a long way.

A physiotherapist can help identify weak links or movement patterns that increase your risk and create a tailored plan to keep you active. Prevention is always easier than rehab, and even small changes can make a big difference.

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer; the best treatment depends on the cause of your pain and your individual goals.

Physiotherapy focuses on identifying the root of the problem, then combining hands-on therapy with targeted exercises and education to get you moving again. Often, it’s about restoring movement, reducing strain, and building long-term strength to keep the pain from returning.

The right plan is always individualised.

Recovery timelines vary depending on your injury, health, and how consistent you are with rehab.

Some people experience relief after just a few sessions, while others may require weeks or months for a full recovery. A physiotherapist will outline a clear plan with realistic milestones, so you’ll know what to expect.

The goal isn’t just to heal, it’s to come back stronger and more resilient.

The right exercises depend on your condition, goals, and stage of recovery.

In general, gentle mobility and strengthening movements are safe for most people; however, some exercises can actually worsen pain if introduced too early. A physiotherapist will guide you through what’s right for your body, tailoring your plan to accelerate healing and minimise risk.

Think of it as training smarter, not harder.
