Here's How We Can Help
Twisting your ankle is something many of us have done, whether we’re into sports or just going about our day. And sometimes, it’s more than just the ligaments; bones can get hurt too. It’s super important to figure out what’s going on quickly so you can get the right kind of help to bounce back fast, avoid doing it again, and get back to your daily hustle without missing a beat. Healing your ankle the right way from start to finish is key to getting back in action without any hiccups.

EXCELLENT Based on 97 reviews Joe Tabone2024-09-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I originally visited optimum health because of knee pain about 8 years ago. My knee pain went away after 2 visits with Helen. I now have arthritis due to my age 79 yrs old. I see Helen who helps me manage my pain very well. Helen explained what was going on very clearly in my joints. After good massaging by Helen and I do simple exercises now and it helps me so much. Thank you Optimum Health &Performance Terrigal. Dee Rabbolini2024-05-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Richard is highly professional and helpful. My improvement is remarkable Dee Rabbolini Lynn Freeland2024-05-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alex and Helen are amazing therapists. I'm so glad they were my first experience with Physios. I attended with bursitis in my shoulder, which i suffered with for several months. After a few visits, I couldn't believe the pain and my mobility were getting so much more manageable. I wish I had visited them sooner. I also learned a lot about my anatomy and it's Inner workings - they explain every step of the way about what they are doing and why. They are so welcoming and professional. as are all the staff at the Terrigal practice. Thank you for taking such good care of me. Mark Bradley2024-04-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having fractured three vertebrae 20 years ago and now having scoliosis, I needed a musculoskeletal physio to help alleviate my back pain and tension. Alex is wonderful. My range of movements steadily improved over the course of the year and my back no longer aches when it rains thanks to the various exercises and stretches that Alex has me doing. I could not recommend him highly enough. Paul Jones2024-03-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alex is extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

The team were able to fit me in at short notice following a sports injury, Helen was great, knowledgeable and really helpful, I now have a plan to assist with recovery, even after one session have I much more mobility! Would definitely recommend! lisa sturgiss2024-03-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I started seeing Alex in 2021 after being diagnosed with both Rheumatoid Disease and Bursitis in all my major joints. At the time I could not walk more then 10 meters due to the extreme pain I was experiencing from the Bursitis in my hips. My GP was pushing cortisone injections that absolutely terrified me... Alex had me walking again within only a few months and continues to treat me now. I can't thank Alex and his team enough for giving me some kind of life back. I'll always have both these diseases but knowing that i've holistic support and treatment (that isn't scary) is such a blessing. John Mifsud2024-03-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After enjoying a life time of sports the injuries accumulate. Alex and the team at Optimum have done wonders to improve my quality of life. Regular visits has resolved the scar tissue from most of those injuries resulting in a remarkable difference to my range of movement, quality of sleep and clarity of mind. Best of all many aches and pains have disappeared. I highly recommend the team at Optimum Health and Performance. Graeme Lowe2024-02-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Staff are highly respectful, helpful and professional. Jelly Drops2024-02-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend seeing Alex, he's helped me so much. I had suffered chronic back pain for a year, before being recommended to Alex by my partner. After my first session, I went from getting 4-5 hours of sleep a night due to my back pain, to getting a full 8 hours. But since I've been seeing Alex at Optimum Health, my back has greatly improved. The staff are professional, and welcoming.
