This established, family-friendly suburb is just a short drive from our Liverpool clinic on the corner of Elizabeth and George Streets at Westfield Liverpool.

What We Treat

Common Conditions We See from Sadleir

These are the problems our Liverpool team treats most often for Sadleir 2168 patients. Every treatment plan starts with a full assessment — we work out what's actually driving your pain before we treat it.

Ankle Sprain

Common Causes

  • Lateral ankle sprain (rolling inward)
  • Medial ankle sprain (rolling outward)
  • High ankle sprain (syndesmosis injury)
  • Chronic ankle instability from repeated sprains
  • Peroneal tendon injuries

How We Treat It

Ankle sprains are one of the most commonly mismanaged sports injuries. Proper rehabilitation is essential to prevent chronic instability. Our physiotherapists guide you through a staged rehabilitation program: acute management (RICE, taping), mobility restoration, progressive strengthening, balance and proprioception training, and sport-specific return-to-activity.

What to Expect

Grade 1 sprains recover in 1–2 weeks. Grade 2 sprains take 3–6 weeks. Grade 3 (complete ligament tears) require 6–12 weeks of rehabilitation. Chronic instability may require surgery followed by 3–6 months of post-operative rehabilitation.

Knee Pain

Common Causes

  • ACL and PCL injuries
  • Meniscus tears
  • Patellofemoral pain syndrome (runners knee)
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Iliotibial band (ITB) syndrome

How We Treat It

Knee rehabilitation at Activ Therapy focuses on restoring strength, movement, and function. Our physiotherapists assess biomechanical factors including hip strength, foot posture, and movement patterns that contribute to knee pain. Treatment includes manual therapy, targeted strengthening exercises, taping/bracing where appropriate, and education on load management.

What to Expect

Patellofemoral pain typically responds within 6–10 sessions. ACL and meniscus rehabilitation takes 6–12 months for full return to sport. Knee OA management is an ongoing process focused on maintaining function and quality of life.

Shoulder Pain

Common Causes

  • Rotator cuff tears or tendinopathy
  • Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
  • Shoulder impingement syndrome
  • AC joint injuries
  • Biceps tendinopathy

How We Treat It

Shoulder conditions require precise diagnosis to determine the appropriate treatment approach. Our physiotherapists perform a thorough shoulder assessment including range of motion testing, strength assessment, and special orthopaedic tests. Treatment may include joint mobilisation, rotator cuff strengthening, postural correction, dry needling, and activity modification advice.

What to Expect

Recovery varies significantly by condition. Shoulder impingement typically responds within 6–10 sessions. Frozen shoulder can take 3–12 months for full resolution. Post-surgical shoulder rehabilitation typically takes 3–6 months.
