Your Local Trusted Cairns Physiotherapist
At Focus Physio Cairns, we are very detailed movement specialists. We provide very thorough assessments to provide you with the treatment, knowledge, and results you need. You will not find generic prescriptions that waste your time and money. Our practitioners are all very highly trained and skilled to provide the best possible care. We are active in sports and leisure. We are passionate about movement and have great expertise in sports physiotherapy as well as treatment for pain relief. In fact, we have had our fair share of injuries, so we know a lot about the healing journey from inside it and out.
We are effective in treating a wide range of ailments, injuries, and complaints. We have a number of extra qualifications that allow us to have a greater understanding of the whole body and therefore the ability to provide a wholistic approach towards our treatment. For more information, please read more on Visceral and Neural manipulation as well as Connect Therapy.
Often, as part of our treatment, we offer individualised exercise programs that suits your personal situation. Targeted exercise can help strengthen and promote better movements in your body. This also includes breathing exercises which is often overlooked.
We empower you to move better, feel better, and live better.
What We Do As Your Physiotherapist in Cairns
We appreciate the intricacy and specificity of the Body. We apply this acknowledgment to our treatments. We are like detectives of the body, searching out why the dysfunction occurred in the first place.
We work with your system not against it, making sure our treatment is specific to your needs. Focus Physio has a whole body approach. You will experience a unique set of treatment skills that only Focus Physio offers here in Cairns.
What is the “Whole System” you ask? Well, exactly that. Our body is not just muscle and bone. In fact, muscle pain is often an expression for bigger issues your body cannot sort out.
Focus Physio offers Visceral Manipulation (direct manipulation of the organs). We also offer neural, circulatory, and cranial techniques. These are just to name a few of our approaches. It is important that all of these structures are taken into consideration. We can then properly address pain or dysfunction in the body.
Focus Physio has the expertise to locate in your body where the problem originates and the tools to treat it appropriately.
Although we would like to see you, our aim is to get you to a place where you don’t need treatment. When the source of the issue is diagnosed and corrected—you have better results that are long-lasting – this not only gives you peace of mind to take that holiday or pick up that heavy box but saves you a lot of time and money in ongoing treatments in the future.
Feel free to give us a call to discuss your concerns and queries or contact us here.
