Signs You Need to See a Physio

At Stellar Physio, we believe that pain should never be your normal. Yet, so many people live with discomfort or limited movement simply because they don’t realize how effective physiotherapy can be or that it’s even an option for what they’re experiencing.

Here are some clear signs it’s time to book an appointment with a physiotherapist

1. Persistent Pain That Won’t Go Away

Whether it’s back, neck, shoulder, or knee pain, if it’s lasted more than a few days (or keeps coming back), it’s time to get it assessed. Pain is your body’s way of saying something’s not quite right. Physio can help find the root cause — not just mask the symptoms.

2. Limited Movement or Stiffness

Can’t turn your neck like you used to? Struggling to squat, stretch, or bend without discomfort? That stiffness might be due to tight muscles, joint restrictions, or posture-related issues — all of which physiotherapy can help improve.

3. You’re Recovering from an Injury or Surgery

From sprains to post-op rehab, physio plays a crucial role in speeding up healing, restoring function, and preventing future issues. Don’t just “rest and hope” — let us guide your recovery with proven techniques.

4. Recurring Headaches or Jaw Pain

Surprised? Physiotherapy can actually help with certain types of headaches, especially those caused by muscle tension, poor posture, or TMJ issues. A few targeted treatments might be all it takes to bring you relief.

5. Your Work or Lifestyle is Causing Strain

If you sit at a desk all day or are on your feet for long hours, chances are your body is quietly absorbing the impact. You don’t have to wait until you’re in pain to see us. Prevention is key!

6. You’re Pregnant or Postpartum

Your body goes through incredible changes during and after pregnancy. From pelvic floor issues to back pain, a physiotherapist trained in women’s health (like the ones at Stellar Physio!) can offer gentle, effective care to support you through it all.

7. You Want to Improve Your Sports Performance

Yep, physio isn’t just for injuries — it’s also for optimization. Whether you golf, run, dance, or lift, we can help you move more efficiently and reduce your risk of injury.
