Physiotherapy

Cottesloe Sports Physiotherapy is providing a unique service at PLC for students and the wider PLC community.

PLC students, staff, and parents can access the service. This enables students and staff to walk to their appointment reducing time lost at work and school. If parents are unable to attend a treatment session with their child, a report including diagnosis, treatment, and plan is emailed to parents.

Treatment also includes:

  • Group gym sessions for girls with hypermobility, knee pain, and specific injuries
  • Communication with sports staff if modifications are required for sports during or after school; and
  • Referrals to appropriate medical staff and recommendations of scans, if required.

The service is staffed by two experienced Sports Physiotherapists, Brett Slocombe and Jo Norcott who both have extensive experience and travel with Australian sporting teams, including the Australian Olympic Swimming and Kayak Teams.

Treatment and management of the following:

  • Sporting injuries, neck, back, or any musculoskeletal pain
  • Posture correction
  • Assessment for hypermobility and scoliosis
  • Screening for injury prevention and strengthening/performance enhancement; and
  • Group classes in the Lighthouse Gymnasium for specific rehab for knee pain and other injuries
