Full Time Physiotherapist | MSK, Sports Injuries and Exercise Classes

Full Time Physiotherapist | MSK, Sports Injuries and Exercise Classes | Coomera, Gold Coast QLD

A clinic where exercise is part of the treatment, not an add-on
Most physio roles ask you to treat and send people home with a sheet of exercises. This one lets you follow through. You’d join a private practice on the Northern Gold Coast that pairs skilled manual treatment with tailored exercise programs, plus a timetable of small group classes. The focus is on getting clients moving well and back to the things they care about, not just settling their pain.

About the practice

• Independent private practice serving the Northern Gold Coast community
• A general practice with a really broad caseload, from young athletes and weekend warriors to older adults with knee and back conditions
• Assessment led approach, with a close look at how each client moves to find what is really driving their symptoms
• Hands on treatment combined with exercise programs built around each client’s goals, work and lifestyle
• Dry needling is used as a regular part of treatment
• Small group classes run alongside one on one care, covering bone strength, steadiness and mobility for older clients, and general conditioning
• Funding is a mix of private, Medicare and WorkCover, with some adult NDIS

About the role

• Full time position
• Treat a wide MSK caseload, including spinal pain, shoulder, hip, knee and foot problems, sciatica, headaches, whiplash and muscle injuries
• Work with sports injuries, from social players through to more serious competitors
• Look after post-surgical clients and some neurological conditions
• See men and women for bladder and pelvic floor concerns, a growing part of the caseload, with the option to build your skills in this area if it interests you
• Work with a caseload of roughly 35% WorkCover, 20% adult NDIS and the rest private and Medicare clients, with a small number of paediatric clients
• Prescribe exercise and take part in running or developing the group classes

About you

• Bachelor or Masters degree in Physiotherapy with current AHPRA registration
• Genuine interest in exercise based rehab alongside manual therapy

What’s in it for you

• Full time hours, Monday to Friday, with no weekend work. Some days finish at 6:00 pm, and the owner is open to a conversation about start times and availability
• A caseload with real variety, from sports injuries to older adults building strength and balance
• The chance to build a special interest in exercise rehab, group programs or women’s and pelvic health
• A client base that spans all ages, from young adults through to those over 65
• A mixed private and compensable practice, so you see a range of referral pathways

Location

• Coomera, Gold Coast: A fast growing hub with a busy town centre, plenty of cafes and green space, easy motorway access to Brisbane and the Gold Coast, and more affordable housing than closer to the beach.
