Exciting news….


We are very excited to announce that we are expanding our practice to another regional town. Local Coolamon resident and Active Physiotherapist Joe Redfern will start treating patients in Coolamon in the near future.

For more about Joe read here.


We wanted to take this opportunity to thank our patients who have trusted our team with their or their loved ones' care this year.

Our vision is for Active, Healthy & Happy Riverina Families and we feel privileged to be able to help our Community with this. You allow us to fulfill our purpose to help people live their best lives.

Christmas time is a wonderful occasion to share with our loved ones especially after this year. So enjoy the season, spend time with those you love, look after each other and stay active.

We wish you and your family & friends a Merry Christmas and peaceful 2022 and that you are able to make the most of every day.


December sees Team Active raising money for the Cancer Council. 

Our team will take on Cancer Council’s ‘The Longest Day’ – the ultimate golfing challenge to complete four rounds of golf in one day. That’s 72 holes!
Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world, with two in three Australians diagnosed with skin cancer by the age of 70.

Together we can make a difference.

The November giving project was to donate to Movember and to the Pain Revolution. Paul Heffernan’s Movember (seen here) video was a personal one highlighting how it can affect any family.


Do you play golf? Does someone you know play golf? Do they want to improve their game? Reduce any discomfort they get playing the game (apart from their score!)? Well, you may be able to help them!

We understand that injuries and rehabilitation don't go on holidays. We are here to help you through the festive period - to stay active, healthy and happy. For those of you already injured or suffering pain, the importance of self-management strategies is highlighted.

With children requiring 60 minutes of moderate physical activity per day and adults requiring 30 minutes of moderate physical activity per day, it is important that we encourage people of all ages to stay active this Christmas.
YES it is tempting for adults to try out their children’s latest toys...

But sometimes this results in some nasty injuries. Be careful! If you find yourself (hopefully not!) needing a waterproof cast over the break. Active Physiotherapy can help you.

So call our rooms on 0269257734 for an appointment or jump onto our website and ask a physiotherapist a question. We will work our best to fit in urgent appointments.

We will be open all weekdays apart from public holidays and continue our service for inpatients at Calvary hospital. If you or your family need to be seen, we are here to help.
