All of our physiotherapy sessions are one-on-one consultations, this allows us to give you the undivided time and attention you need for the best possible quality of care. 

Your physio will listen to you and will be able to tailor any assessments and treatments to the information you have passed on to them.

These tests and assessments will enable your Physio to better understand what may be causing your discomfort, and allow them to create an effective treatment plan.

It is our aim at ShapeShift not to have you as long term recurring patients, but rather be able to treat you and have you return to what you see as your life as “normal” pre-injury. Whether that is a return to your chosen sport or activity, or a return to work.

Your physio will educate you about your injury and will teach you how to manage it at home with a variety of strength exercises and stretches.

We will empower you to be in control of your own rehabilitation journey.
