Level 3, Suite 304/161 Walker St, North Sydney NSW 2060

Effective Pain Relief

Highly Qualified and Experienced Physiotherapist

Multi-faceted Treatment Approach

Physiotherapy Services for Every Concern

We can help you with pain relief and rehabilitation for all musculoskeletal problems – anything to do with muscles, joints, ligaments and nerves. Most often, our clients are office workers, labourers and athletes. Our techniques are also appropriate to help pregnant women, the elderly, and clients with chronic disease.

Some of the common concerns we treat are:

  • Tightness and pain in the back, neck, shoulder and hip areas (often the result of prolonged sitting and postural stress)
  • Sports injuries like hamstring strains, groin pulls, shin splints, and other injuries sustained while playing sports or strength training
  • Repetitive strain injuries such as golfer’s elbow, tennis elbow, rotator cuff and carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Sprains such as wrist sprains, knee sprains, and ankle rolls or other falls
  • Injuries incurred from motor vehicle accidents or other sudden trauma
  • Complex conditions like sciatica, headaches and degenerative disc disease

We are actively engaged within the health and fitness industry so you can be assured of receiving expert advice and high quality treatment.

Prioritising your return to activity as soon as possible.

Treatment will start on your first visit. It is likely to include manual therapy, advice around activity modification, and rehabilitation work outside of consultation. We recognise long lists of exercises rarely get followed, so we provide simple, quick and effective exercises that will provide relief in a short space of time and get you back in the game of life.

We understand you might be keen to get a clear prognosis, however, all conditions differ and thus require different approaches. To ensure you gain the maximum benefits from your physiotherapy sessions, it is imperative that you stick to your rehab program. Treatment is much more likely to work when therapist and patient work synergistically.

Who can we help?

In addition to treating commonplace injuries from accidents and daily activities, we help athletes with specific injuries incurred through sport or other high-impact, high-speed activities. Physiotherapy is also highly beneficial to desk workers subject to ongoing postural stresses and repetitive strains.

All of our physiotherapists are members of the Australian Physiotherapy Association. Physiotherapists and sports physiotherapists are trained to assess your condition, provide a diagnosis, and educate you about your condition. An effective treatment plan involves taking into account your body, lifestyle, activities and general approach to health.

Common treatment modalities used by our physiotherapists:

Like many professions, physiotherapy can be extremely diverse, both in the way practitioners treat and the varying treatment modalities they employ. In keeping with the high standards that have earned us hundreds of 5 star Google reviews, our team has a wealth of experience and a high level of competence.

Some of the modalities we use include:

  • Soft tissue mobilisation
  • Sports physiotherapy and sports massage
  • Dry needling
  • Exercise programs to improve mobility and strengthen muscles
  • Joint manipulation and mobilisation to reduce pain and stiffness
  • Sarah Key Method
  • Physio Key
  • McGill Method
  • Gait and movement re-education

Is Physiotherapy right for me?

Many people are confused as to whether they should be seeing a chiro or a physio for their particular concern. The truth is, both types of professionals are qualified to treat a wide range of musculoskeletal problems – back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, headaches, tight muscles, soft tissue injuries, and the list goes on. Both our chiropractor and physiotherapist come with many years of experience in helping clients of all ages with these concerns.

Another factor to consider is whether you are covered for chiro or physio services with your private health fund. On-the-spot private health fund rebates are available at our practice for both chiropractic and physiotherapy services using HICAPS.

Tom is amazing! He really takes the time to evaluate your entire chain of movement and makes a plan that works for you and your goals. I had been dealing with lower back pain for a few years and had seen physios in the past with no relief and I finally found that with Tom, helping to push my training further. Whether you’re going for an injury or prevention, he is great.

Recently trialled the Novothor red light therapy bed at The Physical Therapy Center in North Sydney. The Center was flexible with the timing and helpful with the explanation of the potential benefits of the system. There are few robust red light therapy systems in Sydney and the Novothor machine appears to be at the high end of those systems. So if you are interested in the red light treatment modality, this center was conveniently located with a machine grade mostly likely to result in a benefit.

Tom Cartwright would be the best holistic, caring and supportive chiropractor I have seen. His ability to understand misalignment of the body is exceptional. After every session, I feel the benefits immediately. Thanks for everything, Tom!

I have been using the Novothor machine. I’ve done 9 sessions and seen really good results (decrease in pain, overall sense of calm). Tom is so lovely. He makes you feel very welcome and explains everything you need to know. Very clean space. Would highly recommend. -Emma

Highly recommended. I went to Tom when I had a lot of pain from a bulging disk in my lower back. He was able to get to the root of the problem and had me back to normal in good time. Bookings are easy to make via the website and he always runs on time. It's terrific to have a great chiropractor in North Sydney.

A recent ankle injury brought me to Tom at The Physicaltherapy Centre. I cannot overstate how thorough his attention and care to both my overall wellbeing and injury was. Within the first consult I felt I was in very safe and experienced hands. Tom has a wide breadth of experience across both physio and chiro practices and I absolutely recommend him for any physical concerns.

Had a really great experience using the NovoTHOR red light therapy here. It’s a small, private, safe space focused specifically on the technology rather than a big commercial studio, which I actually loved. The environment feels calm, personal, and very intentional. Tom is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to explain how everything works, which made me feel comfortable straight away. I came through the intro offer and ended up returning multiple times because the sessions were relaxing and easy to fit into my routine. Definitely recommend if you’re curious about NovoTHOR and want a more one-on-one experience.

I tried the NovoThor red light therapy for 2 weeks. It was fantastic. Felt the results weeks later in ways unexpected. It was a head to toe, overall improvement in muscles, general wellbeing. I did it at a particularly stressful time, and I think somehow this therapy carried me through with recovery physically. Slept better, coped better.

I used the The Physicaltherapy Centre for their NovoTHOR session and the whole experience was smooth. Tom was professional, skilled, explained everything clearly, didn’t oversell, and the clinic felt clean and well-run. Booking was easy, and I walked out feeling noticeably looser and less beat up than when I went in.

Enjoyed a very welcoming and calming experience while using the Novothor red light bed. Everything was clearly explained, easy booking system, and the team made sure I felt confident and relaxed throughout the session. The space itself is calm, clean, and well set up! I'll be booking in more sessions to come. Thanks for bringing red light therapy to North Sydney, as it's so hard to find!
