About Us
The definition of ‘inspire’ reflects the primary goal of our physiotherapy clinic which is to teach and empower clients in a logical and self-defining manner to understand their body, why pain occurs, and how to move forward with ease and confidence.
When you know exactly what the problem is you are able to self-direct behaviour and movement accelerating healing time and preventing future injuries. We believe the role of the physiotherapist is to first provide you with body knowledge, support your recovery with ‘hands on’ techniques and then give you the tools (exercises and advice) to support your own recovery going forwards.
Inspire’s primary goals are to
- Support clients to make informed health and lifestyle decisions
- Proactively prevent future injuries and enable clients to manage their own health
- Ultimately motivate clients to achieve long term sustainable independence in health care and self care
