From running injuries and ACL rehab to CrossFit, cycling, shoulder, knee, hip and back pain. Melbourne's go-to clinic for athletes who want to get back better than before.
Our Services · Richmond Clinic
Whether you play lawn bowls after a tempranillo or race Antarctic ultramarathons, we cover the full spectrum of sports injuries and rehabilitation. Our team holds sub-specialties across every service below, so you'll see the right person for what's actually wrong.
Most running injuries are fixable when you treat the actual cause, not just the symptoms. We use treadmill analysis, strength testing, and progressive loading to get you back on the Yarra trails stronger than before.

We love your enthusiasm for throwing heavy things around. Sometimes your body just needs a conversation about sustainable training loads and movement patterns. We work with boxes across Melbourne including CrossFit Hawthorn East, CBD and Richmond.
CrossFit physio info →
ACL injuries are brutal. But with proper prehabilitation and post-surgical rehab, you can return to sport. We work with Melbourne Shoulder and Knee Surgeons for the best possible outcomes. Average return to competitive sport: 10 to 12 months.
ACL rehab info →
From commuters to Dandenong climbers, cycling injuries are usually about position first, strength second. We work closely with Ciclo Melbourne for technical bike fitting when clinical issues require it.
Cycling physio info →
Common in swimmers, tennis players, CrossFit athletes and climbers. The key is understanding whether it's structural damage or, more commonly, poor movement patterns and scapular control. We partner with Melbourne's best shoulder surgeons for cases needing surgical intervention.
Shoulder physio info →
Knee pain is rarely just about the knee. It's usually hip strength, ankle mobility, or movement patterns causing the problem. We assess the whole kinetic chain, not just the sore bit. VALD testing, gait analysis and sport-specific functional testing included.
Knee physio info →
Your feet are the foundation for everything. When they're unhappy, everything upstream suffers. Most foot and ankle pain responds brilliantly to proper treatment combined with calf strengthening and gait work.
Foot physio info →
Hip pain affects runners, cyclists, gym-goers and desk workers alike. Whether it's a true hip joint issue or referred pain from your lower back, we'll work it out and fix it. Strong glutes and mobile hips are non-negotiable for almost every sport.
Hip physio info →
One of our most effective tools for stubborn muscle tension and trigger points. Not acupuncture. Evidence-based trigger point therapy that works brilliantly for certain conditions. All our physios are qualified and use it as part of a comprehensive treatment plan, not as a standalone technique.
Dry needling info →
Skilled hands working through tight muscles, under physiotherapist supervision for optimal treatment integration. Sports massage, deep tissue work, recovery sessions, and cupping with Mary Ann Caca, our remedial massage therapist.
Massage info →
Physiotherapy services for NDIS participants, supporting individuals with disabilities to achieve their health, mobility and functional goals. Up to 60-minute sessions at $193.99. We work within NDIS frameworks to maximise your plan benefits.

Why wait until you're broken? Many of our smartest clients come quarterly for performance screenings to identify problems before they become injuries, optimise movement patterns, and stay one step ahead. Prevention is more fun and cheaper than rehabilitation.

How We Work
Five things that happen at every Evolutio consultation that don't happen at most physio clinics. Starting with actually having enough time to do the job properly.
45-Minute Initial Assessment
Not the rushed 30-minute standard. We listen to your complete story, examine how your whole body moves, identify the real cause of your issue, and provide immediate hands-on treatment. You'll leave with clarity on what's wrong and a realistic recovery timeline. What to expect at your first visit.
Detailed Email Follow-Up
Within 48 hours you'll receive a comprehensive email from your physio with your diagnosis, week-by-week recovery plan, video exercise demonstrations, and expected milestones. No wondering what's next or trying to remember what you're supposed to do at home.
Same Physio Every Session
You'll see the same physiotherapist throughout your recovery. They'll understand your progress, adjust your program as you improve, and genuinely know your goals. No repeating your story to a different practitioner every week. Meet the team.
Progressive Treatment Plan
Each session builds on the last. Manual therapy when needed, exercise progression as you improve, sport-specific training as you near full recovery. Your program evolves as your body responds and your goals change.
Return Stronger Than Before
We don't just get you pain-free. We address the underlying issues that caused the injury so you come back more resilient. Whether it's running technique, lifting form, or training load management, we fix the root cause. See our clinical outcomes.
Treatment Techniques
No unnecessary extras, no equipment sold from the desk. Every technique below is chosen because it's evidence-based and clinically appropriate for the person in front of us. Read more at the Australian Physiotherapy Association.
01
Manual Therapy
Hands-on joint mobilisation, soft tissue work and trigger point therapy. The skilled stuff that requires proper training and years of clinical experience to do well.
02
Exercise Prescription
Customised programs with video demonstrations, progressive loading, and sport-specific modifications. Sent to you by email after every session.
03
Movement Analysis
Treadmill gait analysis, lifting form assessment, and sport-specific movement screening to identify the real cause of your problem, not just where it hurts.
04
Dry Needling
Evidence-based trigger point therapy for stubborn muscle tension and chronic pain patterns. All our physios are certified. Used strategically, not routinely.
05
VALD Performance Testing
Objective force plate measurements for strength assessment, ACL rehab milestone tracking, and performance optimisation. Takes the guesswork out of return-to-sport decisions.
06
Load Management
Smart training progression advice so your enthusiasm doesn't exceed your body's current capacity. A large part of injury prevention, and often ignored at other clinics.
Transparent Pricing
Fees vary by practitioner experience. All sessions include hands-on treatment, a tailored exercise program, and email follow-up. See the full pricing page for all appointment types, NDIS, bike fitting, exercise physiology, and massage.
