When you’re constantly juggling school runs, commutes, and trying to stay active in between — it’s easy to put your body last. But those aches and niggles are your body’s way of asking for proper attention, not just patch-ups.
Physiotherapy in Russell Lea
What we often hear from Russell Lea locals:
- “My back seizes up halfway through the workday”
- “My body just feels stiff and tight all the time”
- “I’ve had this shoulder pain for ages, but haven’t had time to deal with it”
- “My knees ache every time I go for a run”
- “I’m not sure what’s causing it — I just feel off lately”
These signs are more common than you think:
- Persistent tension in your shoulders, hips or lower back
- Postural issues from working or driving long hours
- Old injuries that flare up under stress
- Reduced strength, mobility or endurance
- Uncertainty about how to train or recover safely
Physiotherapy helps bring clarity to all of this — so you can move forward with strength and direction, not just ‘managing’ the pain.
Hear from our founder, Dr Elch, as he shares how Human Movement Co. helps patients move from frustration to freedom.

I can’t speak highly enough about Mitch. I’ve got chronic shoulder pain on both of my A/C joints and after only a few sessions I’m seeing significant improvement.

Recently, I visited Mitch, a chiropractic therapist, for my back issues, and was profoundly impressed by the experience. Mitch's clinic provides a serene and welcoming atmosphere, setting a calming tone right from the start. During the consultation, Mitch distinguished himself with his thorough approach, taking the time to understand the nuances of my condition, which made me feel genuinely cared... read more

Great Physio. I saw Mitch with a few issues some going back years and a new leg problem. He not only gave me a stretch out and good "back crackin'" but also all the tools I need to continue my therapy by myself. He's not too pushy and is genuinely there to see you heal. Couldn't recommend a better physio... read more
