Sport & Spine Physiotherapy was established in 1993, to provide high quality Physiotherapy and Sports medicine services to the people of Newcastle and the Hunter Valley. Since that time we have worked with many different sports from recreational to elite level, and these include Athletics, National and local Netball, National Rugby League, Olympic Sailing, Triathlon, Gymnastics, Hockey, Cross Fit
and Dance. This means that an essential part of your diagnosis and treatment is carried out with the manual skills and techniques which our Physiotherapists have developed and refined over their careers. These are then combined, with the sophisticated information technology now provides, to confirm and clarify clinical presentations. Our Physiotherapists operate in a network of highly trained and qualified Sports medicine professionals including, Sports and Exercise Specialists, specialist Orthopaedic Surgeons, Sports Radiology, General Practitioners, Coaches, Sports Trainers, strength and conditioning experts and Massage Therapists.
