Merivale Physiotherapy Clinic

The Merivale Physiotherapy Clinic has a highly qualified team of physiotherapists who provide a full range of services including manual therapy, pre and post-surgical rehabilitation, bio mechanical analysis, muscle screening competency screening and exercise prescription for all ages.

Because ‘Your body deserves the best of care’ our physiotherapists are focused on restoring your physical function following injury, surgery or illness.

At Merivale Physiotherapy we pride ourselves on having 40-minute consultation times as this allows a detailed subjective assessment of your injury or condition and adequate time for the treatment and self-management advice that will follow.

We will endeavour whenever possible to give you hand outs of any exercises we may prescribe.

We consult closely with your referring Doctor, Specialist or Health professional. A progress letter will be sent to any referring specialist/doctor at the time of your follow up visit or on completion of your treatment.
