✔️ Using hands on treatment to ease pain and tension

✔️ Building a personalised strengthening and stretching plan

✔️ Guiding a safe return to activity so you can stay injury free

Whether your goal is a daily jog or a 50km hike, physio helps you get there without the setbacks. Book online today!

🏔️ Grit. Rain. Altitude. Victory. 🏃‍♂️
Ganghofer Trail Leutasch • 2 August 2025

21.5k of pure off road challenge through the Tyrolean Alps, starting at 3,600 ft elevation and climbing over 1,000 more. 🌧️

The skies poured. The trails disappeared. The air thinned. But kept pushing.

Despite the rain, mud, and lung crushing altitude, he crossed the finish line in 2:19 and placed 17th overall on one of the most brutal courses around.

“I was struggling to breathe…” he said. But he didn’t stop. He just ran harder.

💪 Huge congratulations to our sponsored athlete for his epic performance! We’re proud to have you on Team Optimus representing us as you crush it!

Headaches or Migraines? Your Neck Might Be the Missing Link.

Did you know many headaches especially tension headaches and even migraines can be linked to neck dysfunction?

Poor posture, stress, old injuries, or too much screen time can cause inflammation in the joints and muscles of the upper neck, often triggering head pain.

🔍 Our first step is always a thorough assessment to rule out other causes.

If your neck is contributing, targeted treatment can help reduce inflammation, improve mobility, and relieve pain.

💡 We often see: ✔️ Reduced headache frequency ✔️ Less intensity ✔️ Better quality of life

If you’re tired of living with headaches, we can help you figure out what your body is trying to tell you.

Book online via our website, we’re ready when you are!

We treat the real root causes so you can move freely (and pain-free) again.

At Optimus, we see all forms of arthritis and we’re here to help you move with less pain and more ease.

Most joint pain is caused by internal damage. But pain isn’t the whole story and it doesn’t have to control yours. Our approach? 
Break the pain cycle Boost circulation Improve joint mobility + stability Build strength in surrounding tissues

Arthritis can sometimes lead to other issues due to joint instability, that’s why identifying what type you have (and how severe it is) is step one.

🔍 While osteoarthritis is the most common form we treat, we also support clients with rheumatoid, gout, and psoriatic arthritis using our powerful laser system to calm inflammation and reduce pain.

Relief is possible. Let’s help you feel good in your body again. 🙌

Frozen Shoulder Slowing You Down? We’ve Got Your Back (and Shoulder)! 💪

If reaching overhead, putting on a jacket, or even sleeping on your side has become a challenge, you might be dealing with Frozen Shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis.

This condition can cause pain, stiffness, and limited movement that creeps in slowly and can last for months (or longer) if left untreated.

The good news? Physiotherapy is one of the most effective, research backed ways to thaw frozen shoulder and restore mobility.

At Optimus, we combine:
 ✔️ Manual therapy to reduce stiffness ✔️ Targeted mobility exercises to restore range of motion ✔️ Strength training to stabilise and support the joint ✔️ Education to empower you with techniques to manage pain and recover faster

Frozen shoulder doesn’t have to freeze your life.
