How Can We Help?




    Common sports injuries and physiotherapy solutions

    One of the most common reasons for needing a physiotherapist is sporting injuries. Injuries are usually par for the course, whether you play sports professionally, socially or just love staying fit and healthy. But they don’t have to keep you out of the game for long, thanks to the experienced team at Yates Physiotherapy.

    Some common injuries include strains, sprains, muscle or ligament tears, dislocations and many more. We help get you back to doing what you love through a tailored treatment plan that suits your injury and recovery goals. Every injury is different, which is why we offer personalised attention rather than generic treatment plans.

    Physiotherapy for chronic pain management

    If you suffer from chronic pain conditions, we understand that it can have a significant impact on your life. The good news is that physiotherapy can help to reduce your pain, improve your comfortable movement, and return to a better quality of life. We use a range of safe treatment methods, which may include massage, stretches, hydrotherapy and more.

    Don’t suffer with chronic pain any longer, because there’s help available. Speak to our team about physiotherapy for chronic pain management today.

    Physiotherapy for post-surgery rehabilitation

    Following certain types of surgery, it’s not uncommon for your doctor to recommend physiotherapy to assist in your recovery. From back surgery to ankle surgery, physio is a key component in achieving a full recovery. In consultation with your medical professional, our physiotherapists devise a tailored treatment plan that suits your needs.

    Physiotherapy for post-surgery rehabilitation isn’t just about getting you back to your normal mobility levels. It also helps to strengthen muscles around the surgical site, with a view to preventing further issues. Our physiotherapists work with you in a controlled environment, ensuring a safe and gradual return to full fitness.

    Seniors’ health and physiotherapy

    As we get older, movement becomes more difficult. It’s a fact of life that when we turn 60, we don’t have the same physical capabilities as when we were 20. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a great quality of life well into your older years. Physiotherapy for seniors helps to improve your range of motion, reduces pain and enhances overall well-being.

    Your friendly Adelaide physiotherapist will use a range of techniques depending on your condition and needs. If you suffer from poor mobility, we can help restore some of your normal movement. The benefits of physiotherapy for seniors are immense, particularly because better movement and reduced pain lead to more physical activity. This activity helps you maintain a healthier lifestyle while doing the things you love for longer.

    FAQs

    What is physiotherapy, and how can it benefit me?

    Physiotherapy uses a range of techniques to help patients deal with injuries, chronic pain and other medical conditions. Many people can benefit from physiotherapy, especially those looking to increase their range of movement or reduce pain. If you suffer from any type of musculoskeletal condition or injury, you’ll likely benefit from physio.

    How do I find the best physiotherapy services in Adelaide?

    That’s easy, just call the friendly team at Yates Physiotherapy. We offer a comprehensive range of services to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal problems as well as many other issues. The important thing to consider when choosing a physiotherapist in Adelaide is to find one that suits your needs. They should be experienced, highly trained, and attentive to your individual condition. That’s exactly what you get with Yates Physiotherapy.

    What types of conditions can physiotherapy address?

    There are plenty of conditions your physiotherapist can assist with, including:

    • Back pain
    • Sprains and strains
    • Arthritis
    • Chronic pain conditions
    • Sports injuries
    • Flexibility issues
    • Muscle pains and aches
    • Rehabilitation following surgery

    This list is not exhaustive, so if yours isn’t included, please contact our team to check whether we can assist.

    Do I need a referral to see a physiotherapist?

    You don’t need a referral to see a physiotherapist, however many people do choose to see a GP first. Depending on your condition, other medical health professionals might be involved in your treatment and recommend physio. But if you know what the problem is and want to see a physio straight away, you just need to give us a call.

    If your issue relates to a Workers’ Compensation or other type of claimable injury, in these circumstances, you would need a referral before seeing your physiotherapist.

    If you fall under NDIS, Workers Compensation, My Age Care, CTP (Compulsory 3rd Party Insurance) or DVA then you will need a referral.

    How much does physiotherapy cost in Adelaide, and is it covered by insurance?

    Physiotherapy usually costs between $100 - $130 per session, depending on your condition and the treatment required. If you have private health insurance with extras, some or all of these expenses may be covered. It’s crucial to check with your insurer to ensure you have physiotherapy services included in your package.

    Can physiotherapy help with sports injuries?

    Absolutely! Physiotherapists are trained to deal with a wide range of sporting injuries. Whether you’re a sporting professional or a weekend warrior, injuries are a part of physical activity. Here at Yates Physiotherapy, our skilled sports physiotherapists can devise a treatment plan to get you back to your best quickly, while also helping to prevent injury recurrence.

    How soon can I expect to see results from physiotherapy?

    It’s extremely difficult to say how long it will take before you notice results because every case is completely different. Some people recover more quickly than others, and of course, injuries and medical conditions come in all different levels of severity. Physiotherapy can sometimes feel like a slow process because you need to gradually build up your strength and range of movement. If you try to progress through your treatment pain too quickly, you put yourself at risk of repeating the injury.

    Are there specialised physiotherapy services for children?

    There certainly are. Our qualified physiotherapists can work with children, and it’s not uncommon for kids to need some physio. Some children experience musculoskeletal conditions from a young age, and a physiotherapist can play a key role in helping them lead a more full and active life.
