Tailored and expert physio
Our team at Adelaide Physiocare and Sports Acupuncture is your one-stop clinic for tailored and expert Physio and Sports Physio management for all types of pain problems, musculoskeletal issues and sports injuries, whether they are acute or chronic. We have a reputation as one of Adelaide's leading clinics, largely thanks to our experience and cultured combination of manual physiotherapy techniques together with acupuncture and dry needling. We were one of Australia's pioneering clinic's to combine the now very effective approach and use of dry needling and acupuncture with traditional physio.
Traditional physio approaches we utilise include but not limited to; Joint mobilisation and manipulation (spine and limbs), Pelvic and spinal alignment through Muscle Energy Techniques, Maitland approach for disc injuries, Massage and Trigger-Point release, and Specific exercise therapy including stretching, re-strengthening, core stability and floorwork Pilates depending on your needs.

This will ensure the best treatment for your personal condition - including any home exercises and prevention strategies - and will get you back into shape again with much greater efficiency than a more generalised physiotherapy treatment plan.
We will provide you with friendly expert care, every time. No exceptions.
Specialty Sports Physio
Sports physio is a slightly different dynamic due to the added pressure to return to competition as primed and soon as possible. We can provide accelerated total rehabilitation programs based on the latest evidence for athletes competing at all levels, whether it be injury rehabilitation or post-surgery rehabilitation.
We consistently treat and manage both professional and amatuer athletes with their overall injury management, and we are very proud to have strong relationships in the local sporting community and provide physiotherapy to a number of sporting clubs and fitness centres.
Clinical Floorwork Pilates
Pilates is a system of exercises targeting your 'core' designed to build strength, flexibility, lean muscle tone and posture, with an emphasis on lengthening the body and aligning the spine. For this reason it has a large place in physiotherapy and exerfcise rehabilitation for a number of ailments.
Pilates is beneficial for a wide array of conditions and is safe for everyone to use. Many back pain-related problems stem from poor posture and a sedentary lifestyle, and Pilates can help to eliminate them by stabilising your core muscles and improving structural support of your pelvis and spine.
Our Physio's are trained in 'clinical Pilates' which allows us to accurately assess your core and recommend the most appropriate Pilates exercises for you. Whether you're grappling with a sports-based injury, a low back injury, or any other kind of problem, we can design a suitable home-based Pilates program that addresses your individual healing needs.
