"Hope is not cancelled"

Spotted this beautiful reminder near Canterbury train station bridge wall. In times when the world can feel uncertain, these simple words invite us to pause, breathe, and remember that hope is still here.

There is still kindness. There is still goodness. And there is always something worth holding onto.

We’re often asked, “Do you work on Fridays?”

Fridays are our non-negotiable day off. It’s a day to slow down, go for a walk, enjoy a hot chocolate, and catch up with life beyond the clinic.

That’s why we run the clinic Monday through to Thursday. Creating that space allows us to refill our cups, recharge, and return fully present for our clients each week.

Slowing down doesn’t always require fancy holidays or retreats. Sometimes it’s about creating a life with intention, having the discipline to set boundaries and protect time for what matters.

A gentle reminder:
You can create your own rhythm too.

Tried everything for your pain… but nothing has worked? 😔

At Alive Physio & Wellness, we take a different approach.

You’re not just seeing a physiotherapist — you’re seeing a Fascial Counterstrain practitioner, trained to work with your fascia, nervous system, and whole body patterns.

Many people with chronic or persistent pain haven’t found relief because their treatment only looks at symptoms. We focus on the why behind your pain helping your body release tension and move more freely.

💡 All our appointments are 45 minutes, hands-on, and tailored entirely to you.
No rushing. No heat packs while we treat someone else. Just focused care that works.

If you’ve tried multiple treatments and still feel stuck, it might be time for a different approach.

📍 Book with Nad Perera, Victoria’s only Fascial Counterstrain-trained physiotherapist.

Many people try to stretch harder, strengthen more, or push through discomfort.

But if your nervous system is stuck in protection mode, force won’t create freedom.

Nervous system regulation is the missing piece in many chronic pain and recovery journeys.

At Alive Physio & Wellness, we use Fascial Counterstrain alongside movement, yoga, meditation and massage to support true neurowellness — helping your body shift from survival mode into safety.

If you’ve been feeling wired, tense, or stuck in persistent discomfort, this may be your sign to approach healing differently.

Book your session and experience the reset your body has been asking for.

There’s a reason fascia is getting attention.

For years, it was overlooked. Now we know it plays a significant role in pain, movement, and nervous system regulation.

At Alive Physio & Wellness, we incorporate Fascial Counterstrain as part of a holistic physiotherapy approach, especially for people experiencing persistent pain or patterns that haven’t resolved with traditional methods.

Looking for something a little different this Valentine’s Day?

Instead of the usual flowers or dinner out, gift yourselves a shared experience of connection, presence, and deep relaxation. Join us for a Meditation & Sound Healing experience designed especially for couples, a chance to slow down, breathe together, and reconnect in a meaningful way.

This intimate workshop combines guided meditation with the soothing vibrations of sound healing, creating space to rest the nervous system, open the heart, and simply be together without distractions or expectations.

With only 4 couples (8 spots) available, this is a small, nurturing experience where you’ll feel truly held and supported.

Spaces are very limited, so bookings are essential.
We’d love to share this special morning with you and your partner.

Our Story

Created by husband and wife team, our journey started in 2007. It was a memorable year for us. We had our first child and we started running a home-based Physiotherapy practice in Jerrabomberra, Canberra. With our commitment to providing a high standard of patient care, we believed in empowering patients to achieve wellness, rather than just dealing with episodes of pain.

Nad always looked past the symptoms presented and looked at the bigger picture of what is going on in the patients' whole body. This philosophy together with his unique treatment style and patient education meant we had no choice but to expand the business into a commercial premise in 2012 with other physiotherapists and complementary practitioners. After running a successful practice for 9 years, we closed the business in 2016. However, Nad continues to travel to Canberra once a month to look after his patients.

Alive Physio and Wellness was born in 2014 with our relocation to Melbourne. We are excited to share our knowledge with our patients and continue to strive to provide 'best practice' in physiotherapy.
