A pelvic orA pelvic or sacral stress fracture is a small crack or severe bruising in the bones of the pelvis, particularly the sacrum, which is located at the base of the spine. This injury is common among athletes, particularly runners and dancers, and can also affect individuals who experience a sudden increase in physical activity or have underlying bone health issues. While it may not be as well-known as other types of fractures, a pelvic stress fracture can cause significant pain and limit mobility. Physiotherapy plays a critical role in the recovery process, helping patients regain strength and prevent further injury. At Brisbane Physiotherapy, we specialise in personalised treatment plans to manage pelvic stress fractures effectively.  is a small crack or severe bruising in the bones of the pelvis, particularly the sacrum, which is located at the base of the spine.

Neurological physiotherapy is a specialised area of physiotherapy focused on helping individuals who have experienced damage or disorders affecting the nervous system. Conditions such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal cord injuries can severely impact a person’s mobility, coordination, and muscle function. At Brisbane Physiotherapy, we offer neurological physiotherapy to help patients regain independence, improve movement, and enhance their quality of life. 

Osteoarthritis (OA) of the elbow is a degenerative joint condition that results from the breakdown of cartilage within the elbow joint. While less common than OA in other joints like the knee or hip, elbow OA can significantly impact a person’s ability to perform everyday activities, particularly those involving arm movements such as lifting, gripping, or twisting. Fortunately, physiotherapy offers effective ways to manage symptoms and improve joint function. At Brisbane Physiotherapy, we provide tailored treatments to help patients with elbow OA regain mobility and reduce pain. 

Osteoarthritis (OA) of the digits, or fingers, is a common condition that affects the small joints in the hands, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced hand function. As one of the most prevalent forms of arthritis, OA of the digits can make simple tasks like gripping objects, writing, or using utensils difficult. Fortunately, physiotherapy can play a crucial role in managing symptoms, reducing pain, and maintaining hand mobility. At Brisbane Physiotherapy, we offer targeted treatments to help individuals manage OA of the digits and maintain an active, independent lifestyle. 

Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is a common condition that affects millions of people, particularly as they age. This degenerative joint disease occurs when the protective cartilage in the knee wears down over time, leading to pain, stiffness, and decreased mobility. While OA is a progressive condition, physiotherapy plays a vital role in managing symptoms, improving joint function, and enhancing quality of life. At Brisbane Physiotherapy, we offer specialised treatment plans to help individuals with knee OA stay active and reduce discomfort.  

A partial meniscectomy is a common surgical procedure used to treat a torn meniscus in the knee. The meniscus is a crescent-shaped piece of cartilage that acts as a cushion between the thighbone (femur) and shinbone (tibia). Meniscal tears are a common injury, often resulting from sports or activities involving twisting, pivoting, or heavy lifting. A partial meniscectomy involves removing the damaged portion of the meniscus while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible. At Brisbane Physiotherapy, we offer tailored rehabilitation programs to help patients recover quickly and regain full knee function following this surgery. 

Retail workers are the backbone of the customer experience, often standing for long hours, handling heavy items, and performing repetitive tasks. These physical demands can lead to musculoskeletal pain and injuries over time. At Brisbane Physiotherapy, we understand the unique challenges faced by retail workers and offer specialised care to help them stay healthy, pain-free, and productive. 

The myofascial sling is a system of interconnected muscles, fascia (connective tissue), and ligaments that work together to transmit force and stabilize the body during movement. These slings help coordinate body segments and facilitate efficient movement. There are four primary myofascial slings in the body: 

1. Anterior Oblique Sling (AOS): Involves the external obliques, internal obliques, and the opposing adductor muscles. 

2. Posterior Oblique Sling (POS): Involves the latissimus dorsi, gluteus maximus, and the thoracolumbar fascia. 

3. Lateral Sling: Includes the gluteus medius, tensor fascia latae (TFL), and the opposing adductor complex. 

4. Deep Longitudinal Sling (DLS): Involves the erector spinae, thoracolumbar fascia, and biceps femoris. 

Nerve entrapment, also known as nerve compression or impingement, occurs when a nerve is compressed or pinched by surrounding tissues such as muscles, tendons, ligaments, or bones. This compression can cause pain, tingling, numbness, and muscle weakness. Nerve entrapment can significantly affect your ability to perform everyday activities, making early diagnosis and treatment crucial for preventing long-term damage. At Brisbane Physiotherapy, we provide expert care and rehabilitation for individuals suffering from nerve entrapment to help them regain full function and alleviate discomfort. 

Multiple ligament injuries in the knee are serious and complex injuries that involve damage to two or more ligaments within the knee joint. This type of injury is most often seen in high-impact sports or severe trauma, such as car accidents. Multiple ligament injuries can significantly impact knee stability and function, requiring timely diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation for optimal recovery. At Brisbane Physiotherapy, we are committed to helping patients regain strength, stability, and mobility after suffering from multiple ligament injuries.
