At Powerbase we understand that sports injury and post-operative rehabilitation involve a series of progressive stages to ensure a safe and successful recovery. Here's an overview of the four key stages we focus on:
-
Once pain and swelling are under control, we shift our focus to restoring mobility and achieving full range of motion in the affected joint or body part. Through targeted stretching, joint mobilisation, and gentle exercises, we aim to loosen tight muscles and tissues, break up scar tissue, and improve joint flexibility.
-
In the initial stage of rehabilitation, our priority is to manage pain and reduce swelling associated with the injury or surgery. This may involve modalities such as ice therapy, compression, and gentle manual techniques to alleviate discomfort and promote tissue healing, allowing you to rest and recover comfortably.
-
The final stage of rehabilitation involves comprehensive testing and assessment to evaluate your readiness to return to sport or activity safely. This may include functional movement assessments, sport-specific drills, agility tests, and performance evaluations to assess strength, stability, and neuromuscular control. Based on the results of these tests, we'll collaborate with you to develop a gradual return-to-sport plan that minimises the risk of re-injury and maximises your performance potential.
-
With improved mobility established, we progress to the strengthening phase of rehabilitation. Through a combination of resistance training, functional exercises, and dynamic stretches, we aim to rebuild muscle strength, endurance, and stability around the injured area. This stage is crucial for preventing future injuries and preparing your body for the demands of sport or physical activity.
At Powerbase our goal is to support you through each stage of the rehabilitation process, guiding you toward a full and successful recovery. With our evidence-based approach and personalised care, you can trust us to help you get back to doing what you love, stronger and more resilient than ever before.

Testimonial
“Had a bunch of sessions with Ross to address ongoing back and shoulder issues. He really impressed me with his holistic approach, and the way he focused on specific muscle groups in each session, and explained exactly the causes and solutions to various pain points. Years of running without doing much other exercise had caused some problems that he managed to get sorted. I was able to run a Marathon pain free as a result, and now have a set of easy exercises and stretches that I do daily.”
