Sydney CBD Physiotherapy | 4DHP

What is Physiotherapy?

Physiotherapists specialise in movement and function and look to incorporate a collaborative approach with their patients to assist them in overcoming movement deficiencies that may have occurred from sport/training or have been present since birth.

The team at 4D Health and Performance use current evidence-based techniques to assess, diagnose, treat and prevent a wide range of musculoskeletal injuries and sporting conditions. Our physiotherapists will spend one on one time with you to understand how your issue is affecting you, and then provide a client-centred treatment approach to achieve your goals.

Physiotherapy is designed to help:

  • Reduce pain and stiffness
  • Increase strength
  • Return to sport or activity
  • Improve quality of life

Some conditions that our physios are able to treat include (but are not limited to);

  • Musculoskeletal injuries
  • Sporting injuries
  • Arthritis
  • Back and neck pain
  • Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI)
  • Muscle strains and sprains
  • Post-operative rehabilitation
  • Strength and conditioning
  • Postural re-education

Here at 4D Health and Performance, we use an integrated model throughout our clinic that aims to work alongside our clientele, our practitioners of different fields and other allied health professionals to ensure your injury is managed efficiently and professionally.

We believe in providing an environment that is going to support and encourage you through your journey from injury to performance.

Initial consultation
(45-minute session)

During your initial consultation, our team will take a detailed history, complete a thorough physical examination, and develop a management plan tailored specifically for you and your goals. Our physiotherapists will also address and discuss any concerns or barriers relating to your management of the injury.

Standard follow up
(30-minute session)

Based on the individualised treatment plan outlined in your initial consultation, our physios will implement specific strategies to help achieve the desired outcomes discussed. During these consultations, you can expect the application of manual therapy techniques such as soft tissue massage, dry needling and active release therapy. Additionally, as we believe in providing more than a ‘band-aid’ solution, corrective rehabilitation exercises may be completed to help progress your recovery further.

Extended follow up
(45-minute session)

This 45-minute appointment is for patients who have already been seen before for an initial consultation but have a presentation that is more complex or requires additional face-to-face time, or have two or more different presentations requiring treatment (e.g.: shoulder and knee pain).

If you have already been seen before by our team for this (or a similar) issue and feel that 30 minutes is long enough for your follow-up, instead choose "Standard follow up".

When you book for an Extended physiotherapy session you can expect:

  • Follow-up discussion about your progress and changes in the presentation
  • Re-assessment of outcomes and tests relevant to your presentation and goals
  • Review of X-rays, CT, MRI, or specialist reports
  • Passive treatment (where warranted) including massage and dry needling
  • Modifying or progressing your rehab programme as required
  • If needed, a referral to either our network of specialists, referral within the team to Exercise Physiology or Chiro, or for imaging

If you have further questions, please contact the clinic at (02) 8041 0762 !

Long consultation
(60-minute session)

A long consultation is for existing 4DHP clients and is when multiple injury sites, or a more complex treatment and rehabilitation is needed.
