MTP Health Physio & Exercise Physiology

The best facility in Australia for every ability level from injury (both acute and chronic) and rehab, all they way though to elite athlete optimisation. As a World Championship qualified triathlete, i found the my full body assessment with Brendan Maxworthy as surprising as it was insightful. I was broken down to the sum of my parts, and systematically analysed to find weaknesses and imbalances no matter how small. I am now thoroughly enjoying the journey of being put back together, stronger and better and seeing how this platform takes my triathlon to the next level.

I have also had the pleasure of knowing and working closely with the orthopaedic surgeons here. I would not hesitate to go under the knife with any of the surgical team at MTP Health, you would be in incredible hands.

It's a very professional and comfortable medical hub. The reception staff were friendly to help me. Dr MK was very thorough and provided me good guidance of what I need to do for my injury and how to improve my recovery. Highly recommended!

Dr Cawthorne took the time to thoroughly explain planned procedure, details of choice of surgical approach and possible side effects and outcomes.

Totally recommend.
I have trained and had physio at MTP for over 10 years.
I definitely have increased my strength, flexibility and well being.
Thank you to everyone at MTP.

Luke gave me a perfect explanation of the issues that cause my problems and a plan to fix them

Thank you so much (Doctor Cawthorne and receptionist) for your care and compassion this morning - already have recommended Dr Cawthorne to a friend.

Luke was very helpful and knowledgeable in assessing my issue and while it's too early to say if it is able to be resolved, his approach and next steps to analyse it gives me confidence that he is taking me in the right direction.

Dr Cawthorne, explained to me what he thought the problem is with both my hips so I could understand them and referred me for investigative scans to further investigate the hip problems.

MTP was a FANTASTIC RECOMMENDATION … the MTP people are just so accommodating. Nothing is too much trouble and it’s been a great benefit to my body all round. I am fit and strong again

Clinton has professionally assessed my symptoms, observed my capacities, outlined an appropriate remedial program, reviewed progress with baseline measures and updated my ongoing care calendar. Currently symptom free. Thank you Clinton.

I have been seeing Brendan for the past 7 months to work on my on-going long term knee issues. He is attentive, knowledgeable and has developed a program that I am seeing great results from. He's very adaptive and adjusts the program as needed and I feel more confident in my movements. He listens and takes the time to understand the issues especially around my anxiety about reinjury and has been great in navigating this and making sure I am comfortable and confident in the exercises he gets me to do. I am experiencing less pain since starting with Brendan and cannot recommend him enough.

After suffering a substantial injury from running rather than going to an orthopaedic surgeon, I was referred to a Sports Medicine Doctor who in turn referred me to MTP Health at St Leonards. I embarked on a 12 week intensive exercise rehabilitation programme with Brendan the Head Exercise Physiologist. My goal was to be able to go to Ireland to do a walk that was booked pre-COVID. Brendan was so supportive and encouraging. It was definitely hard work and certainly a big commitment but together we did it. I went to Ireland and walked! I would highly recommend Brendan and MTP Health before you commit to having any surgery; this has to be a realistic option for anyone.

I took my son to MTP for physio and rehab after a nasty broken leg. The team there were fantastic, and unlike so many other places, actually consulted with each other to provide the best treatment across exercise physiology, physio, etc. Can't recommend Luke and the team enough.

I've been coming to MTP Health since the arrival of my first child, which has translated to sleepless nights and horrible back pain - cradling your little one is not conducive to good posture! Sara, the resident massage therapist, has been amazing at working out all the knots in my back when I'm able to sneak in a little mummy-relaxation-time. The physios are also great, and have been a core part of my post-c-section recovery! Would highly recommend!

Absolutely excellent service and treatment. I have been seeing Chris for a number of weeks now and he has really helped me out, the services and treatment received has always been very professional and everything is explained to you. The clinic it's self is very clean and all the staff are always happy and friendly.

I saw a therapist Chris Hulbert in St Leonards. To be honest Ive had a bad experience at another place & was quite jaded in seeing someone again but Im very glad that I did. Chris took into consideration the previous issues that I still continue to work on, he took the time to show me & explain to me in detail how everything connects & how & why certain movements, exercises & posture would help. Chris is compassionate beyond his years & it's clear he has a natural passion to genuinely help people. I feel very grateful & will continue to see him & all that MTP offers now because of the professional trust that has developed by such a good person. Im a 48 yr old female with lower back and pelvic floor issues who wants to also improve overall health. I highly recommend MTP Health and Chris Hulbert.

Most fantastic one-stop-shop for exercise physio, physio, massage and training. These guys have helped immensely with rock climbing, running, rehab, strength work, and Chris gives some seriously effective massage! Killer team of outstanding professionals!

I have been using MTP for around 3 months working on my hips and upper body. They are extremely personable and friendly.

I tore my meniscus and had to have surgery. After months of physio and feeling like I was never going to be able to walk properly, recover or straighten my leg and knee I felt hopeless. I couldn't walk properly, straighten my leg and was in pain well past the time I should have recovered, the simple movements were a struggle. My recovery was not going to plan and was taking a toll on me mentally and emotionally. I insisted on my surgeon that I needed to do something and he referred me to Luke at MTP and his knee exercise physiology program. All I can say is thank God he did, it changed my life! I wish I had known about MTP and the program at the start of my rehab phase, my recovery would have panned out so differently.

So after nearly a year of rehab unable to move properly, walk and in pain I never thought I’d be where I am today. The guys at MTP Health came into my life and changed everything, within months my mindset was more positive and so quickly I was seeing physical results! Without them I would never be where I am today, grateful and blessed for what they have done for me and how they looked after me. For me what stood out the most was how knowledgeable and honest each and every physiologist was, everything they advise you on and how they answer your concerns and questions just always makes sense. You will not meet a better bunch of trusting, kind, caring and awesome health care professionals who continue to still care for you even after completion of the program.

The Knee program is unique, and it works! I am proof of that. The program is tailored and unique to each individual, it recognises that no one person has the same needs and that each persons rehab journey is different. In 12 weeks the knee program did for me what almost 6 months of other rehab failed to achieve and exceeded my expectations.

Went to see the team at MTP Health after having really bad back pain for months. I had seen physios & chiros in the past who were only able to give me temporary relief. After speaking to my practitioner at MTP, they were able to provide me with a clear explanation about why my movement was likely causing my back pains and what I needed to do about it. They showed me the plan I needed to follow to get rid of my back pain, confidently outlining it from start to finish. Very professional and unlike any other rehab service I had experienced before. I'm now able to move pain free, without needing any ongoing management at all.
