Full Time Physiotherapist: Strength-Based Rehab and Spinal Care | Gold Coast, QLD
About the Role
A physiotherapy and strength training clinic on the Gold Coast is looking for a full time Physiotherapist who believes long-term results come from exercise. Physios, exercise physiologists and exercise scientists work together under one roof, so patients move from assessment and treatment into a tailored strength program without leaving the clinic.
About the practice
- A clinic built around strength-based rehab, with physiotherapy at its core
- Physiotherapists working alongside exercise physiologists and exercise scientists
- A clear patient journey: a detailed physio assessment and treatment plan first, then a handover to a customised strength program
- Purpose-built strength equipment used for both rehab and training
- Objective strength testing to give each patient a measurable starting point and benchmark
- A calm, uncluttered training space with no music, no mirrors and no distractions
- A caseload that includes spinal conditions, shoulder, knee, hip and ankle problems, scoliosis and pre and post surgical rehab
- Clients of all ages and abilities, from people managing pain to those building strength for sport or work
- Funding through private health, chronic disease management plans, WorkSafe, MAIC, NDIS and DVA
- Additional programs such as balance classes and healthy ageing support
- Free client parking at the clinic
What you’ll be doing
- Carrying out initial assessments and building treatment plans for each client
- Treating a range of spinal and peripheral conditions with an exercise-focused approach
- Using objective strength testing to guide and track progress
- Handing clients over to exercise scientists for tailored training programs, and reviewing their progress together
- Supporting patients through pre and post surgical rehab
- Completing referrals and reporting for funded clients such as WorkSafe, MAIC, NDIS and DVA
- Working closely with exercise physiologists and the wider clinic team
What we’re looking for
- Current AHPRA registration as a Physiotherapist
- Availability for a full time role
- A strong interest in strength-based rehab and exercise as treatment
- Comfortable working with spinal and general musculoskeletal presentations
- Clear communication that helps patients understand their program
- Experience with funded schemes such as WorkSafe, MAIC, NDIS or DVA is a plus
- A team-first attitude and a preference for evidence-based care
What’s in it for you
- A full time role in a clinic where exercise is the foundation of treatment
- Objective strength data to help you track and explain progress
- Close collaboration with exercise physiologists and exercise scientists
- A focused, quiet working environment away from a typical busy gym floor
- Variety across spinal, peripheral, pre and post surgical and sports cases
- On-site parking for clients, and a role with strong community links on the Gold Coast
Location
- Southport: A major Gold Coast hub with cafes, parklands, the Broadwater close by and easy access to the light rail
