About us

Active Balance Physiotherapy and Performance opened in 2019 to provide Physiotherapy and Exercise Physiology to Old Bar and its surrounding community. Located in the heart of Old Bars town centre, Active Balance Physio offers availability, convenience, and professional treatment.

Our qualified therapists aim to treat and rehabilitate injury, prevent injury and disability, and promote optimal health through hands-on treatment, patient education, and exercise rehabilitation.

Treatment is completely individualised to suit you and your symptoms, with treatment goals established collaboratively to help you achieve your physical best. This may be sports injury recovery and return to play, post operative rehabilitation, management of chronic pain, or simply an assessment of posture or general physical health.

At Active Balance we have a strong relationship with local medical professionals – GPs and Orthopaedic Surgeons, and strive to offer high quality healthcare for the Old Bar Community. We look forward to helping you achieve your goals. Get in touch with us to find out more.
