Why Collingwood chooses us
A physio clinic that doesn't feel like one.
Walk in and you will notice it straight away. Smooth indie tunes, the smell of good coffee, a handmade timber table built from reclaimed wood. This is not your typical sterile white-walled clinic. It is a place designed for healing and human connection — and it happens to be five minutes from Collingwood.
We have treated over 7,300 athletes from Collingwood, Fitzroy, Abbotsford, Clifton Hill and beyond since 2013. Whether it is a running injury from the Yarra trails, a cycling problem from Johnston Street commuting, or shoulder pain from the CrossFit boxes on Smith Street — we get it. And we get you better.
We are registered with all major private health funds and accept WorkCover, TAC, DVA and NDIS. See our full pricing and insurance guide.

What we treat
Collingwood sports injuries we excel at.
Smith Street CrossFit, Johnston Street cycling commutes, Yarra trail runs, Fitzroy Gardens workouts. We know the injuries that come with a Collingwood lifestyle because we treat them every single day.
Cycling Injuries
Collingwood is one of Melbourne's most cycle-commuted suburbs. We work with Ciclo Melbourne on complex bike fit cases, because sometimes the problem is not just in your body.
- Lower back pain from position
- Neck and shoulder strain
- Knee tracking problems
- Hip flexor tightness
CrossFit & Gym Injuries
Our team trains. They understand CrossFit movements, Olympic lifting loads, and what it means to tell someone they cannot train for eight weeks. We do not do that unless we absolutely have to.
- Shoulder impingement
- Lower back strain
- Wrist pain from Olympic lifting
- Movement dysfunction
Weekend Warrior Injuries
Saturday soccer, Sunday tennis, morning parkrun at Princes Park. The goal is always keeping you active while you heal, not sidelining you for months with generic advice.
- Ankle sprains
- Hamstring and calf strains
- Shoulder dislocations
- Tennis elbow
ACL Rehabilitation
Post-surgical ACL rehab done properly takes 10 to 12 months. We use VALD objective strength testing at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months to track progress with real data, not guesswork.
- Post-surgical ACL recovery
- Knee ligament injuries
- Return to sport protocols
- VALD strength assessment
Neck & Back Pain
Long days at a Collingwood studio or agency desk followed by intense training is something we see constantly. We address how sitting affects your whole body, not just where it hurts most.
- Neck pain from desk work
- Chronic lower back pain
- Postural correction
- Sciatica management
The space
A clinic that feels like a place worth visiting.
Walk into a physio clinic that does not feel like one. Smooth indie tunes, the smell of good coffee, handmade furniture built from reclaimed timber. The Twisted? mural on the concrete wall. The plants everywhere. None of this is decoration.
We have found that people heal faster when they feel at ease. That is not soft thinking. It is clinical. And it is why this place is designed the way it is. Collingwood people tend to get it immediately.

Can I get a same-day appointment for an acute injury?
Yes. We hold priority slots for acute injuries. Call us directly on 03 9100 3798 rather than booking online if you need urgent care and we will do our best to get you in the same day. Early treatment almost always leads to faster recovery.
Will I see the same physio every time?
Yes. The physio who does your initial assessment is the one who sees you through the full course of treatment. No re-explaining your story. No starting over. They know your body, your training and your goals.
I commute by bike through Collingwood. Can you treat cycling injuries?
Cycling injuries are one of our specialties. We work closely with Ciclo Melbourne for complex bike fit cases, because sometimes the problem is in your setup and not just your body. Lower back pain, neck strain, knee tracking issues and saddle-related problems are things we treat every week. Read our cycling physio page.
What happens at my first appointment?
Your 45-minute initial session includes a thorough history and movement assessment, hands-on diagnosis and initial treatment, a clear explanation of what is wrong and how we will fix it, and a personalised plan with realistic timelines. Within 48 hours you will receive a detailed email with your treatment plan and video exercises. Read the full first visit guide.

Yes. We provide NDIS physiotherapy services for eligible participants. Sessions are up to 60 minutes and aligned to the NDIS Price Guide. Contact us to discuss how we can support your plan goals.
