Services Offered

At Alexa Biccari Physiotherapy, we offer a comprehensive range of services to treat various conditions and ensure you reach your full potential in terms of mobility and strength. The services include:

Assessment

Every patient’s treatment begins with a thorough assessment, including questions about your condition, medical history, and lifestyle. This helps us understand your specific needs and design a personalised treatment plan to address your concerns effectively.

Manual Techniques

We utilise hands-on techniques such as mobilisation and manipulation to reduce pain, improve joint mobility, and enhance overall function. These techniques are tailored to your condition and progress.

Strapping

For injury support, strapping and kinesiology taping are used to stabilise joints and muscles, facilitate movement, and prevent further injury.

Ultrasound Therapy

Ultrasound therapy is used to reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation. It promotes healing of soft tissue injuries and can enhance recovery time for a variety of conditions.

Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation is a core service, focusing on restoring strength, mobility, and function after injuries or surgeries. We provide customised exercise plans to help patients return to full functionality, whether recovering from a sports injury or managing chronic pain.

Ergonomic Assessment

We offer ergonomic assessments to improve posture and workstation setup, reducing strain on the body and preventing musculoskeletal problems.

Dry Needling

Dry needling is an effective technique for treating muscle pain, tension, and trigger points by using thin needles to release tight areas in the muscles, providing long-lasting relief.

Home Visits

For patients who are unable to visit the clinic, we offer home visits in the Sea Point area. Alexa provides the same high-quality physiotherapy care in the comfort of your home.
