Physiotherapy in Five Dock

Whether it’s tension from carrying kids, lingering postnatal discomfort, or the toll of balancing work and family — your body’s asking for support. Physiotherapy can help you move through it with confidence and clarity.

What we often hear from patients in Five Dock:

  • “My lower back aches every time I lift the pram”
  • “I’m exhausted by the end of the day and my body feels it”
  • “My shoulder hasn’t been right since I went back to work”
  • “I’ve been ignoring this tightness for months — but it’s catching up”
  • “I want to feel stronger again, but I don’t know where to start”

These are signs your body is under more strain than it can comfortably manage:

  • Postural fatigue and tension
  • Pelvic or core weakness after pregnancy
  • Persistent neck or back pain
  • Mobility restrictions affecting daily tasks
  • Fatigue from juggling everything with no recovery time

Physiotherapy isn’t just about managing pain. It’s about rebuilding control, function, and strength — so your body can keep up with your life.

Hear from our founder, Dr Elch, as he shares how Human Movement Co. helps patients move from frustration to freedom.

What to expect when you visit us from Five Dock

We take the guesswork out of recovery. Your first session is all about understanding your movement patterns, your symptoms, and what your body needs to function better.

From there, your physiotherapist will create a plan — combining hands-on treatment with movement strategies that are achievable within your daily life.

Whether you’re carrying kids, managing a desk job, or getting back into fitness, we’ll help you move more freely and feel stronger in the process.

Many Five Dock patients visit our Gladesville clinic — just a short drive or bus ride away. Here’s what they’ve shared:

  • I began seeing Mitch some three months ago. The extent of my injury was quite severe, I had extremely limited range of motion in both arms/shoulders. In my first session with him, I met a person who genuinely cared and was determined to work with me until I overcame my injury and it’s side effects. Two months on, I’ve got... read more

  • I would like to thank Mitch for helping me manage some long outstanding issues I have carried over the years. He was able to get to the crux of the matter quickly and explained to me what was happening and what I could do (routines/exercises) to improve my situation. I'm 60yo and fairly active but always carried these niggles and... read more

  • Always a positive and great experience with Mihajlo(Mitch). I would highly recommend him to people who need neck and back pain treatment and help with posture and general movement health care. I am starting to feel like a 17 year old boy again and am able to play water polo again at a professional level. Thank you.
