Get relief from pain, discomfort and tension in your body so you can move comfortably and feel like yourself again. Renowned for its highly credentialed and skilled physiotherapists, Broadmead Physio is the top choice of many Olympians and elite athletes. No matter your issue, you can trust you will receive an extraordinary level of care that will fast track your healing process to optimal physical health.

We focus on quality patient care with an emphasis on manual and manipulative therapy in conjunction with exercise and education.

Services
Broadmead Orthopaedic Physiotherapy Clinic is located at #102 - 4420 Chatterton Way. We are easily accessed from the Patricia Bay Highway by taking the Quadra Street exit and then turning left onto Chatterton Way. Our office is in the Birch Building and faces towards Chatterton Way. Parking is available around the facility however in the middle of the day parking may be limited.
Get rapid relief from a number of musculoskeletal and orthopaedic problems with IMS / Dry needling. Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS) is also known as functional dry needling. It involves the use of very fine gauge (acupuncture) needles that are inserted to bring relief to muscle tightness that is at the root of chronic or recurring conditions.
Accidents can happen when you play sports. While we can't predict when or if a concussion may happen, having a pre-concussion baseline for you or your child is extremely helpful. Baseline concussion testing is a set of examinations that test your balance, reaction time, memory, coordination and your body's muscle and nerve function.
We excel in helping you rapidly rehab sports injuries so you can get back to training & being active without pain or discomfort. This means that our physios have likely experienced your condition at some point throughout their career or treated it many times at both the recreational and elite athlete level.
Your physiotherapist will assess the movement and alignment of your neck and jaw looking for tightness and imbalances in the muscles and restrictions in the joints. An individualized treatment plan will then be developed with you. When necessary, your physio will contact your dentist and / or specialist to coordinate your treatment with their recommendations if needed.

They lost my appointment and then was called rude by their snobby plastic receptionist when I was understandably upset. Lots of physiotherapists with good ratings in victoria Use one of those so this doesn't happen to you

Amazing office. They are caring and honest with you. Keep you on track and work with you to get the best recovery possible. My physiotherapist is Lauren and I cannot praise this woman and her expertise enough. The front end staff are so kind. Amazing office. I'm so glad I was referred over by a co-worker.

I had the pleasure of being able to work with Jacob Erbes on some back pain that I'd been suffering from for over a year. He was super helpful and was able to address the problem right away. Over just a few weeks he's got me back to running and being active again. I can't recommend Jacob enough!

This clinic and their staff are fantastic. I've been seeing Nicholas and Paul for the past year to treat upper shoulder and neck pain; they've helped me work through a nagging injury that's lasted well over 2 years. After bouncing around from clinic to clinic, finally found a solution. Thank you!

I went to Broadmead Physio after struggling to get back on the bike after a severe round of patella/knee pain. Jacob identified the root cause and worked with me to design a strengthening program to treat the underlying issue and not just the symptoms. I went from a fully locked up knee and limping around to back on the bike and being active withing a few weeks. Great service at Broadmead, and I highly recommend them.

I am SO grateful for Broadmead Physio!! I was struggling with bad back pain and was super uncomfy sitting, standing, you name it. I was worried the pain would never stop but thanks to traction and IMS from the therapists my back pain is now gone. Highly recommend!!

I have been going to Broadmead Physio for years now. I was having major knee issues due to cycling. I got in with Paul McIntyre and he had me back to 100% quickly. The staff is amazing, friendly and a pleasure to be around. Paul and his associates truly have created an amazing environment and I have and will continue to refer everyone to them.
