Looking for a drug-free way to ease pain? TENS machines might just be your new best friend.

These handy devices send gentle electrical pulses through your skin to help block pain signals and stimulate your body’s natural pain relief.
Many people find TENS works well for ongoing pain, and it's famously effective for labour pain too! You can hire TENS machines from for labour analgesia or book a session with us to try it for other types of pain. If it works for you, we can even help order a machine for home use so you can manage pain on your own terms.

Research shows TENS significantly reduces pain intensity during and immediately after use, making it a safe and cost-effective option for a variety of conditions (Johnson et al., 2022). For some, it’s a game-changer in managing chronic pain.

Want to zap away your pain? Ask us how to get started!

(TENS) for pain relief: a systematic review and meta-analysis. BMJ Open, 12(2), e051073.

Looking for something a bit different when other treatments aren’t hitting the mark?

Ultrasound therapy might be worth a try.
This treatment uses sound waves that pe*****te deep into tissues to increase blood flow, reduce inflammation, and support healing. For some people with chronic pain or injuries, it provides relief when other approaches fall short.

Research shows ultrasound can reduce pain and improve function in conditions like plantar fasciitis and chronic low back pain. For example, a recent systematic review found that ultrasound therapy reduces pain scores and improves mobility in plantar fasciitis patients (Alhakami et al., 2024). Another review highlights its role in decreasing pain intensity in chronic
low back pain (Haile et al., 2021).

While not a magic fix for everyone, when combined with exercise and other therapies,
ultrasound can be a helpful part of your rehabilitation journey.

Always ask a registered physiotherapist if ultrasound is suitable for your needs. This post is for general information only.

improving function in plantar fasciitis. PeerJ.

what your body and mind need!

Did you know that with a Medicare Chronic Disease Management (CDM) plan, you can access subsidised physiotherapy sessions? If you have a chronic condition or complex care needs, your GP can help you get a referral that allows you to claim rebates for physiotherapy
treatments. This makes our expert care more affordable and accessible for you.

Physiotherapy can assist in managing pain, improving mobility, and enhancing your quality of life. We work closely with your GP to provide a tailored treatment plan that supports your health goals.

Ask us or your GP how to get started with Medicare referrals and take a proactive step in your recovery or ongoing health management.

Wondering about pelvic floor assessments and internal examinations? Let’s clear things up!

A pelvic floor assessment is a really useful step many women choose for insight and diagnosis of pelvic health concerns like pelvic pain, incontinence, or heaviness. During the assessment, your physiotherapist can check how well your pelvic floor muscles contract and relax.

Is the internal exam essential? No—it’s completely your choice. But it is often the gold standard for getting a detailed understanding of your pelvic muscles, how they’re working, and what’s going on beneath the surface. Think of it as getting an insider’s view to create the best personalised treatment plan for you

Is it invasive? It can feel a bit personal, but our team always keeps the space safe, respectful, and fully guided by informed consent. No one is ever pressured—your comfort and trust come first. Many women find it empowering to better understand their bodies this way.

The pelvic floor is vital for bladder and bowel control, pelvic organ support, childbirth, and even sexual health. Getting a clear diagnosis can help with managing symptoms and improving quality of life.

Interested in learning more or thinking about an assessment? We’re here to answer questions and support you every step of the way!
