Josh Micallef
Having suffered several sporting injuries in his youth, Josh knows firsthand the impact an injury can have. It was his recovery journey working with a great Physio that inspired him to pursue a career in physiotherapy and help others overcome their injuries. With over 12 years in private practice and specialist training in lower back pain, lumbopelvic function, shoulder issues, and clinical Pilates, he is one of Seddon’s and Yarraville’s go-to physios.
What does a sports physio do?
A sports physio uses techniques tailored specifically for athletes and active individuals. They focus on sports-related injuries and prevention, unlike general physical therapy, which addresses a broader range of aches and pains.
Can I work with a sports physio even if I'm not Injured?
Absolutely! A sports physio can also help improve your performance, flexibility, and overall wellbeing by providing you with the tools to reduce injury and support your sporting needs.
How long is a sports physio appointment?
Typically, a consultation with our sports physiotherapist lasts about 30-45 minutes, depending on the complexity of the injury and the therapy required.
