Profile Summary
The Clinic.
We welcome you!

At Movement Theory, we are proud to provide a space that is minimalistic & non-clinical; where our clients feel warm & welcomed.

Our vision is to provide a contemporary, state-of-the-art, multi-disciplinary health care environment to support physiotherapy & rehabilitation services.
More than just a Physio.
Movement Theory is about empowering & educating clients to take control of their own physical health & well-being to help create a life where movement is efficient, sustainable & pain free.

Our mission is to provide innovative physiotherapy solutions for our clientele. We are dedicated to continuous learning, forward thinking & have the best interest of our clients front of mind at all times.

We understand that providing “generic” treatment options for common clinical presentations may not always work for everyone; which is why we provide a range of treatment modalities that are specific to each individual client.
Motion is Lotion.
This little phrase that our Head Physio Rod uses quite regularly is a memorable way to convey the helpful effects of movement for any painful condition! Generally, with most pain, too much rest can lead to people stiffening up and getting more pain overall. Moving regularly keeps our joints and soft tissues more flexible and less painful. Over the past few years in the midst of our Covid pandemic, many of us were unable to participate in our normal physical activity and/or are spending long hours working in home “offices” that are not set up properly.

Our body's soft tissues - ligaments, tendons, muscles, and fascia will shorten and tighten if not moved through their full range regularly. This is one reason why a joint has reduced range of motion after being in a cast for several weeks. If those soft tissues are also inflamed, this phenomenon is even more pronounced. With inflammation, the soft tissues will also get more swollen when held still for long periods, for example overnight.

Luckily, we can limit this effect! When sore inflamed tissues are moved gently and regularly in a non-aggravating way, they will actually become less painful. This is true while you are doing the movement, and also for overall pain levels as the injury or condition heals. Motion is Lotion also applies to persistent pain conditions. Many patients with arthritis or back or neck pain have learned that regular daily, appropriate, exercise is a good way to manage their painful symptoms.

Movement means your joint fluids will be nice and oily, you will start to move and reduce swelling, get air right down to the base of your lungs, nourish your nervous system, get stronger and lessen the chance of diabetes and cardiovascular disease - how good is that!
