Coastal Balance Torquay

our professional services

Balanced body, balanced life

Coastal Balance Physiotherapy & Clinical Pilates was founded in Torquay in 2011 by director, Cindy Parks, a musculoskeletal physiotherapist educated in both Canada and Australia. After experience working in numerous clinics around the world, Cindy became aware of the growing need for a manual therapy clinic devoted to spending quality time with each client on the assessment, treatment, and prevention of acute and chronic injuries.

At Coastal Balance Physio Torquay, we believe that a balanced body leads to a balanced life. Our mission is to provide the highest quality of care through individualised evidence based treatment plans, and direct communication with other qualified health care practitioners to ensure the best possible outcome. We are committed to promoting health and wellbeing by optimising function, mobility and quality of life.

Our goal is to ensure that you experience personalised professional service in a relaxed and friendly environment. With this in mind, we always allow 45 minutes for our initial consultations, and 30 minutes for our follow-up appointments. We also provide the option of booking an extended 45 minute follow-up consult if your injury or condition is quite complex. All consultations occur in our private treatment rooms, on a one-to-one (1:1) basis, so you will not find your physiotherapist rushed or trying to juggle multiple patients.

Our physiotherapists will assess you in order to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and provide a long term solution, rather than a temporary quick fix.

Physiotherapy sessions are “hands on” and may involve anatomical acupuncture and the use of real time ultrasound to ensure appropriate neuromuscular function during specific exercises.

To prevent future exacerbations, you may also find it beneficial to continue with an individualised clinical pilates program (movement therapy) utilizing contemporary equipment and supervised by a registered physiotherapist to guarantee proper form and progression

Let us help you achieve a balanced body, and a balanced life.
