Many younger professionals run a frantic work and sport schedule and this group are often the young accountants and lawyers. They are typically working at their office for extensive hours so the early and late opening times of Melbourne CBD Physiotherapy suit them very well.
The lunchtime hours are also especially popular with Melbourne professionals. Our aim is to provide a physiotherapy environment where the active people who work in the Melbourne CBD can come and receive treatment relatively quickly.
Melbourne CBD Physiotherapy has treated the working people of Melbourne since 1947. Our care extends from Physiotherapy through to expert sports physio and core strength training.
Many of our valued clients are based in the Melbourne CBD for work, though live in the suburbs. Rather than travelling back to their suburb for physio treatment after a day of work in the Melbourne CBD, we find our clients prefer to receive physiotherapy either before or after the working day and in close proximity to their office.
Chris Hibbert, Nick Cross, Todd Anderson and Adrianna Cann at Melbourne CBD Physiotherapy are very happy to extend trading hours to suit the busy lifestyles of our clients.

His approach is as follows: "With many sports physiotherapy cases you go back to basics, and the big question asked is why are you getting injured? Are there other problems in play, look above and below the joint that they are injured or above and below the muscle and then you can implement what you want to do."
