Surflife Physio works closely with our local GPs and community groups to provide our local community with quality Physiotherapy. As a small owner operator we live and play in the area of our practice and we believe our greatest referrer is word of mouth within our area. So if we can have people saying our local Physio is a great Physio then there is no better recommendation. Therefore you can be sure we strive to have every person leaving an appointment happy to recommend us on the back of receiving a great service themselves.
SPORTS MEDICINE AND REHABILITATION
What is sports medicine? Sports medicine is a bit like the team behind F1 racing cars. The knowledge and experience gained from F1 elite racing allows manufactures of cars to produce better and safer cars for the local car market. Similarily we know that applying the model of management we use with the many National and International elite athletes and teams we have been involved in to a non athletic population can produce faster recovery, earlier return to activity and better outcomes for the person. Sports medicine management models are being applied to work injuries and workers compensation injury, chronic diseases like osteoarthritis and lifestyle diseases such as obesity and posture.
SPORTS PSYCHOLOGY
Sports Psychology is an intergral piece of the development of the elite athlete and Surflife Physio has partnered with Sports Psych QLD to give our athletes access to Australian Olympic team Sports Psychologists.
