Georgia at Flexifit Physio has been fantastic in managing my acute shoulder and neck issue. She’s professional, knowledgeable, and her treatment approach is both effective and genuinely supportive. Georgia has a knack for seeking out underlying causes and always takes a holistic view ensuring her care complements any medical procedures I’m undergoing. Highly recommend!

Physio Review I can’t recommend these two sisters highly enough! They are incredibly hands-on and skilled, and after each session, I can genuinely feel the blood flow improving. I always leave feeling so much better. I thoroughly enjoy my physio sessions and make sure not to be late because I know how beneficial they are. Beyond their expertise, they’re also super friendly, making every visit a great experience. Their boutique clinic in Collaroy has such a welcoming atmosphere. If you’re looking for top-notch physios who truly care, this is the place to go!

Georgia has been able to massively reduce the neck and back pain that had developed due to long hours I spent sitting at a desk and hunched over one screen or another. I had also developed a reduced range of motion and stiffness and tightness in my neck. Georgia has significantly improved that as well. I highly recommend Georgia! She also happens to be smart, funny, open-minded, and very warm and welcoming.

The girls at FlexiFit have literally put me back together. Whilst still a work in progress; the difference from when I started going to them, to now, is chalk & cheese. Not to mention the incredible customer service & the genuinely kind people Tess & Georgia are. I highly HIGHLY recommend them for all your needs !!

Hands down the best physio experience I’ve ever had! Georgia and Tessa are absolute incredible —super kind and just really great people to be around. I came in feeling pretty rough, and the difference after my sessions has been amazing. I’m moving so much better and feeling stronger already. They really take the time to understand what you need and make the whole process easy and enjoyable.

Georgia and Flexifit physio are the absolute bomb. I had a bunged AC joint in my shoulder and bursitis. I had immense sharp pain and could not do anything that I usually did. After a few sessions from Georgia and doing (only half) the rehab myself that she suggested,😝 my shoulder is back to 100%. And I am back surfing every day and able to play the drums again. I could not have done it without her physical manipulation skills and Motivational advice. Thank you so much For helping me avoid surgery.

Fantastic service from both Georgia and Tessa. Always very accommodating of last minute changes. Always have a smile on their faces and a friendly and professional demeanor. Top notch service, highly recommended.

I’ve seen both Tessa and Georgia on and off for years; they’re the BEST. Both of them are so knowledgeable when it comes to finding the right spots to release tension. You also get a great chat, they are genuinely interested in their clients. You’ll need to take a deep breath when they hit those tricky spots but it’s worth it, I’m addicted!!

I highly recommend Georgia and Tessa for anyone seeking professional and effective physiotherapy care. I’ve been a patient of both for many years and they have helped me (and my kids) through some pretty gruelling pain and injuries. They take the time to thoroughly assess my condition and explain the treatment plan in a way that is easy to understand. The exercises and treatments provided are tailored specifically to my needs, and I notice significant improvement in my pain and mobility after just a few visits. Both Georgia and Tessa are not only knowledgeable but also incredibly caring making each session a positive experience.Thank you to both for your excellent care.

Georgia has been amazing! Always friendly and up for a chat. But most importantly she certainly knows her stuff not only fixing issues but helping prevent them as well. Highly recommend.

To put it simply, FlexiFit is the best physiotherapy I've been to. I would highly recommend to any family or friends. Tessa and Georgia are amazing; always getting me back into shape for my next soccer game after an injury. Throughout my numerous injuries, they know exactly what my body needs, and they are super accommodating as when my schedule changes they fit me in when an appointment opens up. They are genuinely lovely people, they always make me feel safe and comfortable in appointments.

I was referred to Georgia by an Orthopaedic Surgeon following an elbow fracture. I couldn’t be more happy with Flexifit - my elbow is improving each week and the practice is a pleasure to visit.

Georgia could not have been more caring and wonderful with our 13 year old daughter. Her treatments were not only effective but she also offered lots of great advice and a plan for going forward. Georgia also treated me and it was so good I only needed one session. Can’t recommend FlexiFit highly enough. Thanks Georgia! 🙏🏻💙

I had the slipped disc for couple of days and I wasn’t able to move around at all, the pain was unbearable. I came to George and fix me up in no time! I had a couple of sessions with her to make sure I’m fully fixed. I couldn’t be more grateful enough for Georgia. I’m really glad I came to this place ❤️ Highly recommended!

Knowledgeable and cost effective treatment

Georgia is a brilliant physio. She quickly diagnosed my problem and worked on a plan with me to get me moving again.

Georgia was awesome treating me when I was experiencing quite severe knee pain - she gave me a series of exercises as well as her treatment strategies with a very successful result. Thank-you so much Flexifit

Georgia provides exceptional service and has helped me immensely with my chronic lower back issues and degenerative arthritis. She works hard to keep my pain managed and provides me with knowledgeable advice specific to my injuries. If you are seeking a physio who truly cares and works hard to target specific issues, then look no further; it's so great to walk out of her clinic with complete relief.

I have been attending this practice since they opened and have had no hesitation in recommending Flexifit to my friends. Georgia and Tess are both professional women and the studio is so calming, beautifully spotlessly clean. It’s a treat to attend their business. The work they both do is amazing.

Flexifit is absolutely brilliant! Georgia has been my Physio for the past couple of months and she has been helping me with neck pain/migraines and knee pain. She has provided me with incredible hands-on physical support, as well as a specific and structured at-home exercise plan, that she created and adjusted based on my circumstances. Alongside the actual Physiotherapy aspect, the team at Flexifit have always been super accommodating towards my work schedule and have been happy to shuffle around appointments at the last minute. They are amazing and I can’t thank Georgia enough!

The ladies here do the best work of any physio I’ve ever been to and I’ve visited a few. Not only are they great at their job but they are nice to chat with as well. Definitely recommend them but just don’t come and steal my appointments! 😁

I absolutely love going to FlexiFit as I know I’ll come out feeling amazing! Both Georgia and Tessa are fantastic at what they do and have really helped me through my pregnancy issues and now my postpartum recovery. I could not recommend them enough

Georgia has treated me for three separate issues over the last four years - both in Gordon and now Collaroy I have been impressed with her competency and professionalism on each occasion. My local GP in the upper North Shore was so impressed with how well Georgia has treated my latest issue, he took all her details and said he was thinking of referring his patients that were prepared to travel from the upper North Shore to Collayoy.

Thank god I found this place. I have been suffering for years with neck and back pain, after playing baseball for years, and being a brow and lash artist for the last 5 years, I was constantly in pain and my posture was terrible. Georgia has been working her magic on me for a few months now and I have never felt so good. I can actually move my neck freely now without pain, and Georgia has given me some fantastic advise on how to best manage my training sessions with my personal trainer and the way in which I sit during work. The studio is so clean and provides a relaxing environment, and Georgia and her sister are so lovely and knowledgeable.

I have seen Georgia for a very troublesome shoulder issue I had for years. I am not able to explain adequately how impressed I am with the final result. I still cannot believe I have a pain free shoulder. Thank you Flexifit 🙏.

For the past few months I have had the pleasure of receiving physiotherapy treatment from Tessa at FlexiFit Physiotherapy in Collaroy for an ongoing neck & back issue, and I must say it has been an exceptional experience. From the moment I walked into the clinic, I was greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere, which immediately put me at ease. Tessa demonstrated a high level of professionalism and expertise throughout my sessions. She took the time to thoroughly assess my condition, listening attentively to my concerns and addressing them with the utmost care. Her extensive knowledge and understanding of the human body were evident in her ability to accurately diagnose and develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to my specific needs. What truly impressed me was Tessa’'s ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and concise manner. She patiently guided me through each step of the treatment process, ensuring that I understood the purpose and benefits of each exercise or technique. This not only empowered me to actively participate in my own recovery but also instilled a sense of trust and confidence in her abilities. I am delighted to say that thanks to Tessa's expertise and guidance, I have experienced significant improvement in my condition. Her holistic approach, combining manual therapy, exercise prescription, and education, has not only alleviated my pain but also equipped me with the tools to prevent future injuries. I highly recommend FlexiFit Physio to anyone in need of physiotherapy services. Their professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for their patients make them an outstanding practitioner in their field. I am very grateful for the positive impact they have had on my health and well-being.

I can’t recommend the team at Flexifit highly enough! I’ve had chronic shoulder problems for 2 years and seen other specialists which hadn’t solved the problem. Tessa at Flexifit sourced the problem and after the first session, my shoulders were sitting aligned - the first time that’s happened in 2 years. I felt validated with the pain I was in and feel so much more positive about my treatment pathway with Flexifit.

Georgia’s brilliant and excels in all the areas I want from a physio - diagnosing/figuring out the prob, massage and physical work, and then exercises to do at home to help long term. Worth the 40 minute drive!

I've been seeing Georgia and Tessa from FlexiFit for the last year, and they have both been outstanding. They are caring, compassionate and highly skilled. They have assisted me with managing multiple injuries and I've referred several members of my family who are equally impressed with their services! Thank you, Georgia and Tessa, you guys are amazing!

Great experience helping with my ACL recovery, would recommend

I can commend Georgia and Tessa for their excellent hands-on approach. So many physios nowadays are often hands-off, so being treated at FF has been a refreshing change 🙌🏻

Georgia and Tessa are both friendly and professional and have helped fix my injuries and get me moving again. They are very hands on and I highly recommend them

The girls at FlexiFit are simply amazing. So kind, friendly, understanding and knowledgeable. They know exactly what my body needs. My neck pain has improved dramatically since going here. Love my visits!

What Is Sports Physiotherapy?

Whether you’re a professional athlete or a weekend warrior, staying active means putting your body to the test. But when injury strikes or performance dips, it’s time to ask: what is sports physiotherapy and how can it help you?

Sports physiotherapy is a specialised branch of physiotherapy that focuses on treating and preventing injuries related to physical activity. It combines hands-on techniques, exercise programs and performance strategies to help athletes recover faster, move better and minimise the risk of future injuries.

In this guide, we’ll explore what sports physiotherapy is, how it works and why it’s a game-changer for anyone who wants to stay at the top of their game.

Quick Overview: What Is Sports Physiotherapy?

Sports physiotherapy is dedicated to the care of athletes and active individuals. It helps manage sports injuries, improve mobility and performance and prevent re-injury. By assessing movement patterns, applying targeted treatment and creating personalised rehab plans, sports physiotherapists help you recover faster and perform better—no matter your sport or skill level.

Get Back in the Game with FlexiFit Physiotherapy

Don’t let pain, strain or injury keep you on the sidelines. At FlexiFit Physiotherapy, we provide expert sports physiotherapy tailored to your needs. Whether you’re recovering from an ACL tear, battling runner’s knee or just want to move more efficiently, our team is here to help you achieve your athletic goals safely and effectively.

Call us on 02 8542 9507 or visit our Contact Us page to book your sports physiotherapy consultation.

Who Needs Sports Physiotherapy?

You don’t need to be a professional athlete to benefit from sports physiotherapy. This specialised care is ideal for:

  • Athletes in training or competition
  • Active individuals recovering from injury
  • Fitness enthusiasts managing muscle imbalances
  • Anyone wanting to prevent sports-related injuries

If you’re experiencing pain, stiffness or recurring injuries from physical activity, sports physiotherapy can provide the targeted care you need to bounce back stronger.

Common Sports Injuries Physiotherapy Can Help With

Sports physiotherapy addresses a wide range of acute and chronic injuries, including:

  • Sprained ankles
  • Tennis or golfer’s elbow
  • Rotator cuff injuries
  • Runner’s knee (patellofemoral pain syndrome)
  • ACL and ligament tears
  • Hamstring strains
  • Shin splints
  • Achilles tendinopathy

Whether it’s an overuse injury or a sudden trauma during sport, physiotherapists use evidence-based techniques to speed up healing and reduce downtime.

Key Benefits of Sports Physiotherapy

Sports physiotherapy offers several advantages. Here’s how it can help you:

1. Accelerates Recovery

Injury doesn’t have to mean months on the bench. Sports physiotherapy promotes faster healing through manual therapy, movement correction and tailored rehabilitation plans.

2. Prevents Future Injuries

By analysing how you move, sports physiotherapists identify weaknesses or imbalances that may lead to injury. Prevention strategies are then implemented to keep your body resilient.

3. Enhances Performance

It’s not just about recovery. Sports physiotherapy helps optimise biomechanics, flexibility, endurance and strength to improve your performance in your chosen sport.

4. Supports Safe Return to Sport

Returning too soon can cause re-injury. A physiotherapist will guide your return through staged rehab, sport-specific drills and conditioning.

5. Customised Treatment Plans

Every athlete is different. That’s why treatment plans are tailored to your specific sport, injury, fitness level and recovery timeline.

Techniques Used in Sports Physiotherapy

At FlexiFit Physiotherapy, we offer a wide range of treatment methods, including:

  • Manual therapy – to restore joint and soft tissue mobility
  • Exercise prescription – for strength, stability and functional movement
  • Dry needling – to release tight muscle trigger points
  • Taping and bracing – to support injured areas during activity
  • Biomechanical assessments – to optimise movement and prevent injury
  • Neuromuscular re-education – to improve coordination and control

All treatment plans are goal-oriented and evolve as you progress.

Sports-Specific Rehabilitation

Different sports come with different movement demands and risks. Our team tailors rehab to match the physical needs of your sport:

  • Runners: Foot strike mechanics, hip strength, core stability
  • Swimmers: Shoulder mobility, scapular control
  • Cyclists: Posture correction, spinal flexibility
  • Footballers: Agility, ankle and knee stability
  • Tennis players: Rotational strength, grip and elbow control

This approach ensures not just recovery, but also a return to peak performance.

What to Expect in a Sports Physiotherapy Session

Here’s what a typical session at FlexiFit Physiotherapy looks like:

  • Initial Assessment: We begin with a detailed assessment of your injury, movement patterns, sport-specific demands and goals.
  • Hands-On Treatment: Includes manual therapy, soft tissue work or dry needling to relieve pain and improve function.
  • Rehab Exercises: Tailored exercise programs are introduced to strengthen weak areas and support recovery.
  • Ongoing Progression: As you improve, exercises and techniques are modified to challenge you and prepare you for full return to sport.
  • Education & Prevention: We teach you how to avoid future injuries through posture tips, warm-up strategies and biomechanical advice.

When to See a Sports Physiotherapist

It’s best to see a sports physiotherapist when:

  • You have an acute or chronic injury from sport
  • Pain affects your ability to train or perform
  • You’re recovering from surgery or trauma
  • You want to boost performance or prevent injury

Early intervention leads to better outcomes, so don’t wait until the pain worsens.
