Kinematics Health & Performance

Kinematics Health & Performance At Kinematics, we provide a complete and progressive approach to the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of muscular and skeletal issues.

At Kinematics, we provide a collaborative and progressive approach to optimising your health and performance by combining physiotherapy, osteopathy, podiatry, myotherapy, biomechanical analysis, remedial massage, sports medicine, nutrition, clinical exercise + pilates, and strength + conditioning services. Kinematics is conveniently located in the Melbourne suburb of Richmond, where we offer the highest quality of holistic health services. Our clinicians assess functional and sport specific biomechanics (movements) of the whole body in order to identify areas of imbalance. If not addressed, these imbalances and poor mechanics can often lead to secondary compensations in the body and cascade on to cause other injuries. This holistic, full-body approach provides an effective treatment plan for not only the presenting issue but also the underlying primary cause. Therefore reducing the risk of persistence and re-occurrence of the injury or condition. Whether your goal is to become pain free, increase sporting fitness and performance, or improve general mobility and wellbeing, the team at Kinematics are here to help!

Your back pain might not actually be about your back 👀

When stress builds up, it doesn’t just affect the mind, it can impact multiple systems across the body.

1️⃣ Gut health: Chronic stress can disrupt digestion and gut function.
2️⃣ Mental health: Ongoing stress and poor sleep can keep the nervous system on high alert.
3️⃣ Pelvic health: For many women, gut health, mental health, and pelvic health are closely linked.
4️⃣ Inflammation & recovery: When the body stays in a high-stress (sympathetic) state, cortisol rises, immune function can be affected, and the body can enter a downward spiral.

Sometimes the first step isn’t treating the back, it’s helping regulate the nervous system and addressing multiple systems together.

Jim takes a holistic approach to injury and optimising function because the body’s systems are deeply connected 🔄

💧 Feeling puffy, heavy or swollen? Your lymph might need a little help moving.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a gentle, specialised treatment designed to support your lymphatic system and help your body move excess fluid more efficiently.

Unlike traditional massage that works deep into muscles, MLD uses light, rhythmic movements to stimulate lymph flow — helping to reduce swelling, support healing, and leave you feeling lighter.

MLD can help with:
✨ Post-surgery recovery
✨ Lymphoedema or persistent swelling
✨ Fluid retention or puffiness
✨ Injury recovery

If your body feels like it’s holding onto fluid, this treatment can help get things flowing again.

📅 MLD appointments available with our Myotherapists Cam + Anja, and our Remedial Massage Therapists Ben + Nick. Book via the link in bio.

Three weeks before a World Cup final, he left the field on crutches. 🩼

The injury? A severe adductor longus tear, which normally means around six weeks out of sport.

At the time, most practitioners were icing everything. Instead, his treatment focused on heat, massage and osteopathy to support the body’s natural healing response 🔥💆‍♂️

Just three weeks later, he returned…
and scored a 20-metre goal in the final ⚽️

Why does this matter?

Even a small increase in tissue temperature can improve protein activity. Since much of the immune response and tissue repair process relies on proteins, supporting circulation can sometimes help the body heal more efficiently 🧬

Understanding how the body actually heals can make a huge difference in recovery and performance.

This is the kind of experience Jim brings from decades working with athletes and complex injuries.

Jim’s books are open from next week, with spots already filling fast. Book via the link in bio.
