When it comes to your health, we understand that choosing the right healthcare provider is crucial. If you are severely injured or unwell, we recommend starting with a GP or emergency doctor. However, for muscular and joint rehabilitation, pain, or injury, heading to Motus Merivale Physiotherapy is a good move. Our physiotherapists are trained to diagnose and treat these conditions specifically and accurately.

Before your appointment, we will invite you to fill out a secure online form, providing us with information about your needs and enabling you to consent to treatment. Once you arrive at our clinic, your physiotherapist will ask about your injury or issue, your pain levels, your goals, and more. We take a holistic approach to your care, considering your overall health and wellbeing.

During your appointment, your physiotherapist will conduct functional movement testing to assess your issue. This information helps us determine a diagnosis and create a tailored treatment plan that helps you achieve your goals. Throughout the process, we are here to answer any questions you may have.

Whether you are looking to manage or rehabilitate an injury, improve movement or physical function, reduce pain, or rehabilitate after surgery, physiotherapy is for you. At Motus Merivale Physiotherapy, we are dedicated to understanding your situation fully and designing an individual care plan to help you get back to your best. So whether you're recovering from an injury or looking to enhance your athletic performance, we are here to support you every step of the way.
