Physiotherapy in Brisbane – Restoring Movement and Relieving Pain
At Holistic Physio, our approach to Physiotherapy in Brisbane goes beyond treating symptoms. We believe in understanding the root cause of pain and working with the whole person—body, mind, and lifestyle. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing a chronic condition, or looking to improve mobility, our Highgate Hill Physiotherapy clinic provides personalised care designed to restore your health and wellbeing.

What is Physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is a science-based practice that helps people restore movement, strength, and function after injury or illness. Using techniques such as manual therapy, tailored exercise programs, posture correction, and education, Physiotherapy not only supports recovery but also helps prevent future problems.
At Holistic Physio, we integrate Physiotherapy with other evidence-based therapies, including Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine, and Clinical Pilates. This combined approach allows us to create highly individualised treatment plans that address both the underlying cause of pain and the way it impacts your daily life.
Conditions Physiotherapy Can Help
Our experienced practitioners have supported patients with a wide range of conditions, including:
- Back and neck pain – from postural issues to acute injury, to chronic conditions
- Sports injuries – sprains, strains, and overuse conditions
- Shoulder pain and rotator cuff injuries
- Knee and hip pain – including arthritis and post-surgical rehabilitation
- Headaches and migraines linked to musculoskeletal tension or hormones
- Women’s health physiotherapy – supporting recovery during and after pregnancy
By combining Physiotherapy, with Acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, Clinical Pilates and holistic care, we aim to address the root cause of your health concerns, not just the symptoms.
If you are looking for a Brisbane Physiotherapist who understands the complexity of pain and offers a holistic perspective, we can help.

Acupuncture at Holistic Physio: Ancient Healing for Modern Stress
At Holistic Physio, we understand the toll that modern life takes on the body. Chronic stress, fatigue, poor sleep, and emotional strain are increasingly common – and often interconnected. That’s why we offer acupuncture as part of our “whole-body approach” to healing, helping clients restore balance and vitality from the inside out.
What Is Acupuncture and Why It Works
Rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture is a time-tested therapy that stimulates the body’s natural healing response. By gently inserting ultra-fine needles into specific points along energy pathways (meridians), we help regulate the nervous system, improve circulation, and reduce inflammation. It’s not just about symptom relief – it’s about treating the root cause of imbalance.
Stress Relief and Holistic Recovery
Acupuncture is especially effective for stress-related conditions such as anxiety, insomnia, digestive issues, and chronic pain. At Holistic Physio, we use acupuncture to calm the mind, regulate cortisol levels, and support parasympathetic recovery. Clients often report deeper sleep, improved mood, and a renewed sense of clarity after treatment.
Bridging Ancient Wisdom with Modern Wellness
Unlike conventional treatments that focus on isolated symptoms, acupuncture encourages the body to heal itself. It’s a gentle yet powerful therapy that aligns perfectly with our integrated care model – combining physiotherapy, herbal medicine, and clinical Pilates to support long-term wellness.
Led by Sandra Tan, our clinic blends decades of experience with genuine compassion. Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain, burnout, or emotional fatigue, acupuncture at Holistic Physio offers a safe, effective path to recovery. It’s more than a treatment – it’s a reconnection to your body’s natural rhythm and resilience.
