It is not often you get a post injury photo like this. Fortunately, Rowan's honour is intact as he ruptured his (left) ACL, trying to rush up on the big boy (black cap) and stepped after he passed the ball, resulting in the Pivot-shift injury (ACL rupture/MCL grade 2).

Fortunately, Rowan has managed hundreds of other unfortunate patients pre/post ACL surgery including those eligible for non-surgical rehabilitation.

No one ever expects an injury like this, as it is in most cases a non-contact injury and the evidence for injury prevention is limited in a non-athletic population (Rowan).

Watch this space to learn more about knee injuries and to watch his journey to recovery, to ultimately get back on the rugby field with the Batemans Bay 'Boars' Rugby Union

Complete rupture of the ACL and Grade 2 MCL due to a pivot-shift movement. It turns out that Rowan our Physiotherapist, was correct in his diagnosis and braced himself immediately after to ensure healing of the MCL.

More to come....

Rowan, our only Physiotherapist has injured his knee playing for the Batemans Bay 'Boars' Rugby Union golden oldies in Tathra.

Unfortunately, this means another disruption in patients seeking Physiotherapy services in the area.

Fortunately, the lived experience will no doubt give insight and motivate Rowan to bring together the sporting and general health clients as he posts his recovery timeline and decision making.

Sorry for all of those who have missed out on seeking care for their own injuries, as a result of our own.

We might be a little biased, but easily the best club in the Bay! 🐗❤️🖤

Batehaven Physiotherapy is proud to continue our partnership with the Batemans Bay Boars as a 2026 sponsor. It has been an absolute pleasure supporting the club and providing physiotherapy services to its players.

A fantastic club filled with great people and genuine community spirit. We’re looking forward to another big season together—up the Boars! Batemans Bay 'Boars' Rugby Union

Privileged to be the Sports Physiotherapist for the Bay Tigers and provide my expertise in injury prevention, injury management, rehabilitation and more importantly, the performance of the club across the board by increasing players injury free time on the field.

There is a sense of professionalism and excitement at pre-season with the new coaching staff and their proven expertise and experience.

Gruelling Prehabilitation has started for those injured or in pain along side pre-season training. Do not miss out on getting yourself robust and fit before the season starts!

We are pleased to announce Rowan Willis from Batehaven Physiotherapy has joined the Tigers team, providing help and assistance to our strappers & trainers. Also assessing players injuries and helping with recovery.
Rowan has hit the ground running by attending preseason sessions and reserving time at his clinic to assess a couple of niggling injuries to players.
Anyone that needs a fantastic physio drop in and see Rowan - mention the Tigers or wear club colours for a special rate 👌🏽🐯

We are awaiting the delivery of the most advanced Clinical Pilates Reformer available.

Batehaven Physiotherapy is bringing DMA Clinical Pilates (not Fitness Pilates) to Batemans Bay!

Leading up to our new equipment being delivered and new Physiotherapy services becoming available to the community, we are going to share information about the differences between Clinical Pilates and Fitness Pilates.

Let's kick this off with a very simple fact, Fitness Pilates is not Physiotherapy and Clinical Pilates is based on the (MBCT) Movement Based Classification & Treatment approach and is accredited by the Australian Physiotherapy Association.

Clinical Pilates is Physiotherapy and therefore you can claim on your health fund, just like any other Physiotherapy consultation!

Watch this space for more information but feel free to find our contact information at Batehavenphysio.com.au if you would like more information ASAP.
