Physiotherapy for Pain & Injury
Physiotherapy focuses on assessing and treating conditions that affect movement, muscles and joints. At Forerunner Physio in Taree, our APA member physiotherapists provide assessment and treatment for injuries, pain conditions and rehabilitation needs using evidence-based physiotherapy techniques.
Hands-on Treatment
Physiotherapy may include hands-on techniques such as manual therapy, soft tissue treatment and spinal manipulation. These approaches are commonly used to address joint stiffness, muscle tightness and restricted movement that can contribute to pain or reduced mobility.
Exercise-Based rehabilitation
Exercise therapy is an important part of physiotherapy care. Tailored strengthening, mobility and stability exercises may be prescribed to support recovery, improve physical function and help manage conditions affecting everyday movement and activity.
Individual Treatment Plans
Each physiotherapy treatment plan is based on a detailed assessment of movement, strength and joint function. Programs are tailored to the individual and may include in-clinic treatment and guided exercises to support ongoing progress.
Supporting All Stages of Life
Physiotherapy can support people at different life stages, from childhood injuries through to adult rehabilitation and ongoing mobility care. Treatment may involve assessment, hands-on therapy and structured exercises designed to support recovery and everyday movement.
Paediatrics
Paediatric physiotherapy focuses on supporting children and adolescents who experience injuries, postural concerns or movement-related discomfort. Assessment considers growth, development and activity levels, with treatment designed to support safe participation in school, sport and recreation.
Women's Health
Women’s health physiotherapy supports musculoskeletal conditions that may affect women during different life stages. Treatment may address posture, joint pain and physical changes related to pregnancy or everyday activities, with exercises designed to support strength and mobility.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a physiotherapist do?
A physiotherapist assesses and treats conditions affecting muscles, joints, nerves and movement. This may include back pain, neck pain, sports injuries, joint injuries and mobility limitations.
Treatment often begins with a physical assessment to evaluate strength, movement patterns and range of motion. Based on these findings, physiotherapists may use a combination of hands-on treatment, exercise therapy and education to support recovery and improve movement.
Do I need a referral to see a physiotherapist?
In most cases, a referral is not required to see a physiotherapist in Australia. Patients can usually book an appointment directly with a physiotherapy clinic for assessment and treatment.
However, referrals may sometimes be required if treatment is being provided under specific programs such as Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA), workers compensation or certain Medicare-supported care plans.
What conditions can a physiotherapist help treat?
Physiotherapy can assist with a wide range of musculoskeletal and movement-related conditions. Common examples include back and neck pain, sports injuries, joint injuries, muscle strains, headaches related to the neck and post-operative rehabilitation needs.
Physiotherapists may also help manage conditions affecting balance, posture and mobility through treatment and guided exercises.
