Our Story
​
At Movement Lab Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation we understand that finding a trustworthy, patient-centred physiotherapist can be daunting. That's why we have made it our mission to offer a refreshing alternative where ethics, evidence-based care, and a client-centred approach take centre stage.
Our journey began with a shared frustration over unethical practices and a profit-first mentality that is unfortunately all too common in the healthcare and sports performance industries. We firmly believe that healthcare should prioritise the well-being of clients - not the profit margins. Our desire and commitment to provide every client with the highest standard of treatment, rooted in the latest research and best practices is unwavering.
​
Our need to have a fulfilling and rewarding career, free from unethical business models, birthed Movement Lab Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation. Unlike many clinics, we are are not concerned with generating maximal revenue. This independence allows us to focus on what really matters:
Your health, well being, and performance.
