Primal Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation

I’ve been to many physios before and primal is one of the best. Great facilities and the entire team extremely knowledgeable. Thanks for helping with my ankle

Can’t recommend Primal Physiotherapy enough!

Since opening a few months ago have had the chance to work with both Jordan and James.

James assisted and helped me through some extremely painful shin splints that was impeding my progress in running. Fearing I may have caused some severe damage to the muscles, James was able to provide be with exercises that both alleviated the pain and strengthened the muscles. Within a few weeks I was back running better than ever

My experience with Jordan was just as good. After falling off of a bicycle, I was experiencing some severe pain in my right wrist, this impacted not only my physically demanding job but also the enjoyment I found in yoga and bouldering. Over the course of 1-2 months Jordan was able to provide me with the tools and exercises to reduce the pain in my wrist but also bring it back to a stronger place than it was previously.

The knowledge and care both James and Jordan provided to me made the rehabilitation process so much easier, helpful and enjoyable - I anticipate this extends to the whole team at Primal.

If you’re thinking of seeing a physio, definitely hit the Primal Physiotherapy West Melbourne team up.

Lisa is the undisputed Queen of Physio. Her direction has restored my haggard rig after years of damage, and injuries long presumed chronic. Would give 7 stars but this thingy only allows 5.

An overdue 5 start rating. Highly recommend Lisa and the team at Primal. I've been seeing Lisa for a couple of years across 3 different Primal locations. Her treatment and exercise prescription always address any issues to keep me healthy, and the facilities are top notch.

Primal Physiotherapy, is the best on the north side. I have been really struggling to find a good place to help myself with my knee and I was lucky enough to have Jordan help me set up with an amazing rehab program. Thanks to the amazing team help me get back into fitness

27 May 2023: Popped by today for their open day - the ladies Dani and Lisa were very welcoming and gave me a quick rundown of their facilities. It's a small and clean space with gym equipment for use in the physio sessions. I am looking forward to my first consult with the physio and will provide another update then:)

ps there are some cool prizes to be won on the open day (hoodie, gym towel, water bottle, 30% off 5 sessions)

15 Aug 2023: I've just finished with my 5th session with Lisa and cannot recommend her more.

Lisa was very patient in explaining the issue with my sprain and drawing up a rehab process for me. She provided me with a recovery plan that was easy to follow and that could be integrated seamlessly into my daily life without the need for props - she even made it fun by getting me to use my laptop bag as a weight while I balanced one-legged at a tram stop, or for added challenge, to do it while on a moving tram!

Before ending the last session, Lisa gave me a rehab plan for use if I ever sprained my ankle again, and further exercises to strengthen my muscles. I'm happy that throughout this journey with Primal Physiotherapy that the recovery timeline was well-defined.

20 Oct 2023: I'm happy to report that I've gone 8 weeks without a sprain! The aches and pains that came from my inflamed ankle has also disappeared and that has allowed me to sleep better.

As a typical male I left my pain to the last minute. I came in after leaving my issue for 5 weeks and still having sharp pains down my leg. I booked a appointment with Lisa. I must say she is amazing at what she does, very kind and knowledgeable. She figured out I had a issue with something in my lower back which was causing it to punch on my sciatic nerve.
Lisa gave me some exercises to do with a follow up every 2 weeks.and within 4-5 weeks my problem had disappeared. If only I went here first instead of leaving it until the last minute.
Can’t thank Lisa and the primal team enough for the help. 10/10

I’ve been coming to see James for a couple of months and he has helped me through my issues so efficiently. I am almost pain free now and very happy with my progress and service received.

I saw Lisa for my treatment after my arthroscopic knee surgery. After my first consult i immediately felt at ease with her and comfortable. She has a wealth of knowledge and experience. They came out to see me at my home in short notice as i can't leave. Thank you Primal.i can't wait for my next appointment.
