I had the opportunity to work with Braden over the past couple of months for a pinched nerve in my neck. His professional manner, caring personality, and genuine desire to get his clients back to 100% are admirable. Bridgwater is lucky to have him practicing at this location. Best of luck in your future, Braden!

Thann is prompt and with his 25 years of experience he brings knowledge and experience to treat his patients. I was fortunate to call late one afternoon and get a next morning appointment. Getting treated so quickly sped up the healing process and got me back to the court playing again in no time. I highly recommend Thann!

Always so quick to get you in for all physio needs. Super knowledgeable staff. Having been a patient of Thanh's for over 20 years I would highly recommend him to anyone for injury rehab and now am taking my own kids to see him!

My tennis elbow was so dramatic it deserved its own documentary. Enter this physiotherapist: part healer, part wizard, part motivational speaker. After their treatment, my elbow is functioning at a level I’d describe as ‘factory reset.’ If you’re broken, go here. They’ll un-break you.

I have been using Thanh’s services for over 20 years, and whether you see Thanh or another team member at Bridgwater Physiotherapy, you are in expert hands. I wouldn’t trust my own or my family’s physio care to anyone else. After being diagnosed with frozen shoulder, I initially went elsewhere and was told to “manage my expectations” and accept it as my “new normal.” That didn’t sit right with me, so I returned to Bridgwater Physiotherapy. The difference was immediate. My treatment plan was completely reworked, I was listened to and respected, and everything was clearly explained. With their expertise and personalized approach, I regained full range of motion in about half the typical recovery time. I’ve continue to use their services with other ailments to great success. The standard of care at Bridgwater Physiotherapy is exceptional. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about your health. You are never just another number here — their goal is to get you back to your baseline or better. I highly recommend Bridwater Physiotherapy.

I’ve been attending Bridgwater Physiotherapy weekly for the past few months for a workplace shoulder rotator cuff injury, and I’ve had a great experience. I see both Braden and Megan, and they have both been excellent to work with throughout my rehab. They’re knowledgeable, supportive, and take the time to thoroughly explain and review my at-home exercises, which has made a big difference in my recovery. In my more recent sessions with Megan, we’ve combined physiotherapy with acupuncture, and I truly believe the acupuncture has been helping with pain relief. The clinic itself is centrally located in River Heights with easy parking, which is very convenient. I would highly recommend Bridgwater Physiotherapy to anyone needing professional and attentive care.

What Do People Ask?

Frequently Asked Questions

We get many questions from people about physiotherapy for the hand. Some of those related questions are listed below:

Yes, Physiotherapists are equipped to treat various hand conditions and injuries, offering specialized care for issues like carpal tunnel syndrome, muscle tears, tendinopathies, and many others. Their approach often includes techniques such as manual therapy, exercises to improve flexibility, and modalities to reduce pain and inflammation.

Yes, physiotherapy can help manage symptoms in arthritic hands. Physiotherapists play a crucial role in treating arthritis by assisting patients to resume or maintain an active and independent lifestyle. They are trained in assessing movement and can teach various exercises to improve hand function and reduce pain. Additionally, they can advise you on protecting your joints during daily activities, which is vital for preventing further damage or strain. 

Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in managing hand pain. It involves treatments specifically designed by physical and occupational therapists to align with individual recovery goals. The primary method, manual therapy, uses joint mobilizations to reduce pain and increase mobility, which is particularly effective for conditions such as arthritis and tendonitis. In addition, physiotherapists develop customized exercise programs that improve hand functionality and strengthen muscles, essential for recovery from surgery or injuries. 

No, hand therapy is not the same as physiotherapy. While both disciplines aim to improve patient mobility and function, they focus on different areas. Physiotherapy is broader and typically addresses mobility issues and patient education for re-engagement in daily activities. Hand therapy is a specialized area that concentrates specifically on restoring function in the hand and upper extremities that patients may lose due to injuries or conditions. 

Hand physiotherapy offers several benefits, particularly for individuals recovering from injuries, surgeries, or managing chronic conditions. It helps improve hand function, strength, and range of motion. Physiotherapy can also reduce pain and swelling, enabling a faster and more effective hand recovery. For conditions like arthritis, tendonitis, or carpal tunnel syndrome, hand physiotherapy is crucial in managing symptoms and improving quality of life.

When diagnosing hand pain conditions, we review your medical history to understand any prior health issues, injuries, or treatments you may have experienced. This background information is crucial for identifying severe causes of your hand pain. We then perform a physical examination, focusing on mobility, swelling, deformity, and muscle strength in your hand.
