Individual Solutions

In the past, treatment was like a one-way conversation (no such thing really, unless you are talking to yourself) with the therapist telling the client what to do. Sure, therapists know, but we can't tell you your goals, aspirations, fears, expectations, or past experiences, for better or worse.

So we will treat you as an individual because it is your body, and while we may have access to it for 30 minutes, you have the other 23.5 hours in a day! Therefore, we need to know which activities you are involved in, for how long, and at what intensity. These factors will strongly influence your rate of improvement if they are not balanced appropriately.

Everyone is an individual, so come along expecting a lot of questions.

For the same reason, no one 'treatment' is going to 'fix' all clients. As you will see, Esperance Physiotherapy offers an extensive range of treatment options, but one of the most important isn't physical. It is empathy.

Understanding an injury is largely about appreciating how it affects your life. One ankle sprain is not like another, and a large part of this is that we are all individuals and respond differently. We always aim to consider your situation.

 

Physiotherapy and Your BenefitsManual Therapy

Safe. You benefit from comprehensive and safe treatment from our Physiotherapists.  As registered health professionals, our Physiotherapists will assist you by enhancing your mobility and quality of life. We are trained to assess the underlying causes of joint, muscle, and nerve disorders and to help you understand how to manage your condition best.

Expertise. Our Physiotherapists have completed a 4-year university degree, as well as postgraduate diplomas in specialty disciplines such as Sports or Manipulative Therapy. You benefit from receiving the highest-quality, most up-to-date treatment options. As Physiotherapists are primary contact health practitioners, you don't require a medical referral to attend. We can provide you with a sick certificate if needed. We can request XRs on your behalf if appropriate.

Availability & On Time. No person's time is more important than yours. We aim to have appointments available so you can see a Physiotherapist within 24 hours. We have an appointment through the booking system, and 95% of the time, we are less than 10 minutes late. Clients have often commented on how pleasant it is to be seen so promptly and so close to their booked appointment—sometimes even early!

Easy Payment Options. To keep costs to a minimum for you, we are a pay-on-the-day practice. In addition to accepting credit cards and direct credit payments via phone pay, we offer HICAPS for on-the-spot private health insurance claims. This means no additional paperwork, you claim on the spot and only pay the difference. Easy and efficient.
