ACL Physios

Need rehab on an ACL Injury?

ACL injuries are serious, but recovery doesn’t have to be uncertain. Whether you’ve had surgery or are managing it conservatively, we’ll guide you through every stage of rehab.

  • Post-surgical or non-surgical ACL rehab

  • Strength, control and return-to-sport progressions

  • Long-term injury prevention built in

We help you rebuild strength and confidence from the ground up.

Why Choose Us As Your ACL Physio?

Our physios work with active people and athletes who rely on their shoulders for performance. We use evidence-based treatment and tailored strength programs to get results.

  • Gym-based rehab tailored to your sport or goals

  • Performance testing to track your return to function

We don’t just treat the injury – we prepare you to perform again.

What to Expect

Your first session includes a detailed movement assessment and strength testing to identify where you’re at. From there, we build a progressive plan to get you moving again.

  • Joint, strength and hop testing

  • Individualised rehab program

  • Monitoring through all stages of your recovery

Our approach gives you structure, clarity, and expert support.
