Gungahlin Physiotherapy and Sportscare Centre has been a beacon of excellence in the field of physiotherapy for more than two decades, boasting a legacy of 27 years. Our distinguished team of physiotherapists is not only highly skilled but also committed to delivering compassionate, hands-on, personalised, and evidence-based treatments and rehabilitation services.

​

Our area of expertise lies in the domain of musculoskeletal injuries, sports injuries, post and pre operation rehabilitation as well as addressing issues related to headaches, shoulder pain, neck pain, and back pain. At our practice, we cater to a diverse range of patient needs, including those covered by NDIS, EPC, DVA, workers' compensation, third-party insurance, and private healthcare.

​

What sets us apart is our close association with local sporting teams and athletes. Our physiotherapists have previously worked with esteemed local sports entities, such as the ACT Academy Sport Athletes, Junior Canberra Raiders, Kookaburras Hockey team, Belconnen Magpies AFL, and various netball teams.

 

Furthermore, our physiotherapist was selected to treat athletes at the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games. Presently, we are the preferred choice for elite athletes and emerging junior talents across multiple sporting disciplines, including triathlon, swimming, gymnastics, athletics, netball, golf, cricket, ballet, and dance.

​

Our deep involvement with these sporting teams and athletes has honed our team's proficiency in the treatment, rehabilitation, and prevention of acute sports-specific injuries. We pride ourselves on being at the forefront of sports rehabilitation, actively contributing to the enhanced performance and well-being of athletes.

We have been around before Gungahlin was actually a suburb. Hence the confusion in the name and location. You can find our practice conveniently

within the vibrant suburb of Ngunnawal. We take great pleasure in being an integral part of the closely-knit Gungahlin and Canberra Community, where we are dedicated to providing top-tier physiotherapy services to our valued clients.
