A Holistic Approach to Wellbeing

Effortless Superhuman Physiotherapy takes a holistic approach to your wellbeing. Our practitioners are highly qualified in physiotherapy and various complementary fields, ensuring a comprehensive understanding and personalised care plan. These complementary fields include the following: acupuncture/dry needling, nutrition, supplementation, reading blood results, functional medicine, movement therapy and more.

Our physiotherapists are Human Performance professionals with experience in physiotherapy, dry needling, movement therapy, soft tissue therapies, functional medicine, and holistic lifestyle coaching. We focus on identifying the root cause of your concerns, offering strategies to alleviate symptoms and eliminate the root cause.

Most physiotherapists view the human body in a purely mechanistic way: muscles, bones, joints, and nerves. At ES, we assess the body from a neurological and physiological perspective. To alleviate symptoms and overcome pain and injury, there must be clarity around the client's physiology (how well their body operates internally) and their neurological health (brain, CNS, PNS).

So, of course, this means considering the client's mental, emotional and spiritual health, sleeping patterns, stress levels, quality of the water they drink, quality of the food they eat, and how much movement they get each day. We go beyond traditional approaches by considering the interconnectedness of the body's systems. Our team gets exceptional results through this holistic approach to health and healing.

Our physiotherapy services are tailored to address various conditions, including musculoskeletal issues, sports injuries, rehabilitation, and pain management. These include:

• Arthritis
• Bursitis
• Chronic back pain
• Disc bulges
• Headaches
• Migraines
• Muscle tears
• Neck pain
• Plantar fasciitis
• Sciatica
• Tendonitis
• Tennis elbow
• We take a holistic approach to enhance your overall health and performance.

Our approach is very unique here. By completing the ‘Intake Forms' before your initial consultation, your therapist will have reviewed your case. This means they will understand your pain/injury or health condition thoroughly and will have reviewed any relevant scans and reports. This saves tremendous time (time = money) in the first session, which can be used for assessment and therapy.

Your initial physiotherapy session includes a detailed head-to-toe assessment of all your joints (from your toes to your jaw), muscles, nerves and soft tissues, including the fascia. You can tell much about a client's overall health and vitality through observation, movement and touch. The body provides so many clues.

From this detailed assessment, the therapist can offer a personalised approach to healing and overcoming pain. This may include hands-on therapy, movement therapy, breath work, lifestyle changes, dietary recommendations, and supplement recommendations.

To be ‘whole' means possessing mental, emotional and spiritual health. And this means that the (11) energy systems of the body are all in balance and functioning well.

Physiotherapy cannot be solely focused on bones, joints, muscles and nerves. The health of these tissues depends upon the health of the other systems: the digestive system, immune system, reproductive system, cardiovascular system, etc.

One reason so many people find it difficult to overcome pain and dysfunction is because they are only focused on their pain: neck pain, back pain, and knee pain. And fail to grasp the interconnectedness of all eleven systems.

Hands-on therapy is such an incredible tool. And it becomes even more powerful when combined with strategies that positively influence all the body's energy systems.

The ‘holistic' approach to health and healing begins when you complete the ‘Intake Forms'. You will notice that these forms are about sleep, stress, daily movement, food quality, hydration, dental history, and mental/emotional health.

Our therapists have more advanced methods for evaluating your overall health and wellness. This includes the Health Appraisal Questionnaire (HAQ), blood testing, stool samples, Oligoscans, food diaries, and more.

This information can be used to create an individualised care plan for you. Hands-on therapy is only one area in which we have exceptional skills.

Absolutely. Ask yourself this: have you addressed your mental, emotional and spiritual health? Have you critically analysed all of your lifestyle choices and how they may be impacting your chronic pain levels? It's crucial to look at sleep quality, stress levels, food choices, water quality, daily movement, personal care products and cleaning products.

Also, consider the following:

• Poor bowel health, including constipation, can contribute to chronic lower back pain.
• Certain chemicals in your make-up and personal care products can contribute to abnormal, painful periods.
• Unhealthy sleeping patterns significantly impact your body's healing ability.
• Mineral deficiencies (such as magnesium and B12) can contribute to chronic pain.
• Hands-on therapy can be an exceptional tool for overcoming chronic pain. But in most cases, it's only one component of the overall approach needed.

Yes, our physiotherapists are Human Performance professionals with considerable experience in sports-related injuries and performance enhancement. Whether you're recovering from an injury or looking to optimise your athletic performance, we tailor our approach to meet your specific needs.

We also offer functional risk assessments for athletes of all ages. Using the powerful ‘Move 2 Perform' software, we can assess an athlete's movement patterns and accurately predict their risk of injury. And, of course, provide individualised corrective exercises to help the athlete minimise these risks. Most major sporting organisations have used this injury risk assessment tool: NBA, NHL, Premier League (football), MLB, and many Olympic programs.

Our team have worked successfully with hundreds of state, national, and Olympic-calibre athletes.
