What to Expect at Centre of Health Ivanhoe

Physiotherapy, Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine Under One Roof

Choosing a healthcare clinic can feel overwhelming, especially if you’ve tried treatments before without lasting results. At Centre of Health Physiotherapy & Chinese Medicine in Ivanhoe, we focus on providing clear, personalised care so you know exactly what to expect from your treatment.

Our clinic combines physiotherapy, acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine and remedial massage to support recovery, pain relief and long-term health.


A Personalised Approach from Your First Appointment

Every person’s body and health history are different. That’s why your first session at Centre of Health Ivanhoe begins with a thorough assessment.

Depending on the service you book, this may include:

  • A detailed discussion of your symptoms and goals

  • Assessment of movement, posture or areas of pain

  • Review of lifestyle, stress levels and general health

  • Development of a tailored treatment plan

This approach helps us understand not just where you’re hurting, but why.


Physiotherapy Care Focused on Long-Term Results

Our physiotherapy treatments are designed to do more than provide short-term relief. We focus on:

  • Improving movement and joint function

  • Reducing pain and inflammation

  • Restoring strength and stability

  • Educating you on injury prevention and self-care

Physiotherapy at our Ivanhoe clinic is commonly used for back and neck pain, sports injuries, postural issues, headaches and rehabilitation after injury.


Acupuncture to Support Pain Relief and Nervous System Health

Acupuncture is often used alongside physiotherapy or on its own, depending on your needs. Treatments aim to:

  • Reduce pain and muscle tension

  • Support relaxation and nervous system balance

  • Improve sleep and energy

  • Assist with stress-related symptoms

Many patients choose acupuncture for chronic pain, migraines, stress and fatigue, or when they want a gentler, holistic option.


Chinese Herbal Medicine Tailored to You

Chinese herbal medicine is prescribed based on your individual presentation, not just your diagnosis. Herbal formulas may be used to support:

  • Internal balance and recovery

  • Digestive and immune health

  • Skin conditions and allergies

  • Ongoing fatigue or burnout

Herbal medicine is often combined with acupuncture to support deeper, longer-lasting change.


Remedial Massage as Part of Your Care Plan

Our remedial massage services help relieve muscular tension and support recovery between treatments. Massage may be recommended to:

  • Reduce tightness and soreness

  • Improve circulation

  • Support sports and exercise recovery

  • Complement physiotherapy or acupuncture care


Integrated Care That Treats the Whole Person

What sets Centre of Health apart is our integrated model of care. Rather than focusing on symptoms alone, we look at how your:

  • Musculoskeletal system

  • Nervous system

  • Stress levels and lifestyle

  • Recovery capacity

all interact. This approach is particularly helpful for chronic pain, recurring injuries, headaches and stress-related conditions.
