That sudden "pop" in the back of the thigh. 🦵💥 Hamstring strains are a leading cause of downtime for Melton athletes and active locals. Understanding the 'why' is the first step to a resilient recovery.

Anatomy Breakdown: Your hamstrings are a powerful trio of muscles: the Biceps Femoris, Semitendinosus, and Semimembranosus. They cross both the hip and knee, playing a crucial role in controlling your stride.

Why they tear: Most strains occur during the "terminal swing" phase of running, when the muscle is fully elongated and under maximum tension. If the muscle isn't conditioned for this load, fibers can fail.

Recovery vs. Recurrence: Simply 'resting' isn't enough. Science-based progressive loading helps remodel tissue, ensuring you don't just heal, but return stronger to prevent future tears.

Get back to peak performance. At Melton Physiotherapy Clinic, we combine expert hands-on treatment with personalized digital rehab via Physitrack.

We offer full billing inclusivity:
✅ bulk billing (GP care plans)
✅ WorkCover & TAC

Do you find yourself hobbling across the room when you first wake up? That sharp or stiff sensation in your heel is often the first sign of Achilles Tendinopathy.

While the Achilles is the strongest tendon in your body, it is highly sensitive to 'overloading': like suddenly increasing your walking distance or changing your workout routine. Recovery isn't just about rest; it’s about rebuilding resilience.

At Melton Physiotherapy Clinic, we combine expert hands-on treatment for immediate relief with a progressive loading plan to keep you moving long-term. You will also get access to your personalised home exercise program via Physitrack, so your recovery stays on track even when you're not at the clinic.

We make care accessible for the Melton community with several funding options, including bulk billing (GP care plans), WorkCover, TAC, NDIS, DVA, and private health insurance.

Ever feel a dull ache behind your kneecap after sitting at your desk or a long run around Melton? 🏃‍♂️💻

This is often Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS), commonly known as 'Runner's Knee'. It’s one of the most common knee complaints we see in the clinic, often caused by how the kneecap (patella) tracks along the thigh bone (femur).

Understanding the science:
🔹 It’s usually an 'overuse' or 'loading' issue rather than a one-off injury.
🔹 Weakness in the hips or tight muscles can pull the kneecap out of alignment.
🔹 Early diagnosis prevents long-term joint wear.

At Melton Physiotherapy Clinic, we don't just treat the symptoms. We look at your movement patterns to find the root cause. With hands-on therapy and a customized recovery plan via the Physitrack app, we help you get back to moving without that nagging ache.

We support our local community with inclusive billing:
✅ Bulk billing (GP care plans)
✅ WorkCover & TAC
✅ NDIS & DVA
✅ Private health insurance

Ever feel like your mid-back is locked in place after a long day?

That stiffness in your thoracic spine doesn’t just affect your back: it can lead to neck tension, shoulder issues, and even restricted breathing. When your mid-back moves well, your whole body feels lighter, more mobile, and more functional.

At Melton Physiotherapy Clinic, we focus on restoring that movement through effective hands-on treatment and personalized advice. To help you stay mobile and strong between visits, we provide custom home exercise programs via Physitrack. This allows you to follow your plan easily and share your progress directly with your physio.

We are dedicated to helping the Melton community get pain-free and stay active. For your convenience, we offer bulk billing (GP care plans), WorkCover, TAC, NDIS, DVA, and private health insurance options.

If you've been feeling tight or restricted lately, we’re here to help you get back to your best. Send us a message or comment below if you have any questions about mid-back health!

Is that sharp pain on the outside of your hip keeping you awake?

Tossing and turning because you can’t lie on your side is frustrating. This often points to Lateral Hip Pain (also known as Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome). While many call it 'bursitis', it’s usually more than just inflammation: it’s about how your tendons are handling load.

Ignoring it doesn't just mean bad sleep; it can lead to a persistent limp and stop you from enjoying your weekend walks at the Melton Botanic Garden.

The good news? It’s manageable. Our team focuses on effective hands-on treatments for relief, paired with a clear, progressive loading plan delivered through the Physitrack app. We listen, we assess, and we help you stay mobile and pain-free for the long term.

Ready to sleep through the night again?

We accept bulk billing (GP care plans), WorkCover, TAC, NDIS, DVA, and private health insurance.

Have you been told your joint pain is just "wear and tear"?

For many in our Melton community, hearing this can make you feel like your body is simply breaking down. But that isn't the full story. Osteoarthritis is a dynamic process where the joint is constantly working to repair and adapt.

Your joints are living tissues that respond to the right kind of movement. Rather than "wearing out" like a car part, they can actually be supported and strengthened through targeted care.

At Melton Physiotherapy Clinic, we help you manage OA with:
- Effective hands-on treatments for relief from stiffness and pain.
- Personalised advice to help you understand your joint health.
- Easy-to-follow exercise plans via Physitrack so you can track your progress at home.

Our goal is to help you stay mobile and enjoy life. We support all billing options including bulk billing (GP care plans), WorkCover, TAC, NDIS, DVA, and private health insurance.

Message us or call the clinic to speak with Dayna, Lara, or Tara about how we can help you move better.

Numbness or tingling in your hands? It might be your Median Nerve. 🖐️

For our Melton community: working at a desk, in a trade, or busy at home: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a common hurdle. CTS occurs when the median nerve becomes compressed in the 'carpal tunnel' at the wrist, leading to pins and needles, weakness, or pain.

Understanding the anatomy is key. The tunnel is a narrow passageway of ligament and bone; repetitive strain can narrow this space, compressing the nerve.

At Melton Physiotherapy Clinic, we provide:
✅ Accurate diagnosis to rule out neck or elbow issues.
✅ Hands-on treatment to reduce pressure and improve mechanics.
✅ Custom Physitrack home exercise programs to strengthen the area.

We offer: bulk billing (GP care plans), WorkCover, TAC, NDIS, DVA, and private health insurance.

Don’t wait for numbness to become permanent. Let’s get your hands back to full function.

If you’ve been dealing with persistent headaches, the culprit might be hiding in plain sight: your neck.

Many people in the Melton community suffer from what we call cervicogenic headaches. Unlike a typical migraine, these start with issues in your upper cervical spine (C1-C3). Because your neck nerves share a pathway with the nerves of your head, your brain can "misinterpret" neck stiffness as head pain.

Do you notice your pain is usually on one side? Is it triggered by sitting at a desk for too long or "tech neck"? If so, treating the symptoms with medication might only be a temporary fix.

Our goal is to help you break the cycle of chronic pain. Through hands-on treatment and personalized posture correction, we work to address the source, not just the symptom. You’ll also get access to your own Physitrack home exercise program to keep your progress on track between visits.

We’re here to help you get out and stay out of pain. We offer bulk billing (GP care plans), WorkCover, TAC, NDIS, DVA, and private health insurance.
