Physio Forest Lodge

Physiotherapy in Forest Lodge, close to home. Our home-visit physios, through our partner clinic MoveWell Allied Health, come to you anywhere in Forest Lodge and across Inner West & the City.

Physio in Forest Lodge, at your home

Forest Lodge 2037 is part of Inner West & the City, where Pegasus Peak covers every suburb with home visits, from Marrickville, Newtown and Leichhardt to Burwood, Strathfield, Concord and the inner city. Instead of travelling to a clinic, your physio comes to your home, aged care or retirement residence, or workplace, so treatment fits around your day and happens where you actually move.

Every visit brings hands-on treatment and progressive exercise to your door, guided by current research, to treat the cause and not just the symptom. Whether it's a sore back from work, a sports injury or getting back on track after surgery in Forest Lodge, you'll get a clear plan from the first session.

Physio In Forest Lodge: From Ambrose Foss's 1836 house to Ross Street and Lew Hoad Reserve

Forest Lodge is a small inner-city suburb of around half a square kilometre, named after a house that Ambrose Foss built in 1836 on Bridge Road. That house was demolished in 1912, but the name stuck. Ross Street and St Johns Road form its centre, with bars, cafes and antique stores, while Lew Hoad Reserve on Wigram Road honours the tennis champion who grew up here. Our home-visit physios, through our partner clinic MoveWell Allied Health, will come to you anywhere in Forest Lodge.

Most of Forest Lodge's housing is Victorian, and many of the old houses have been divided into apartments: at the last census, more than six in ten homes were flats and about a third were semis. Only around one in seven people travelled to work by car, and the aches we see here are sore knees and hips, tight necks from desks, and strains from weekend sport. We come to your door, and a private visit needs no GP referral.

Your first visit in Forest Lodge is a hands-on assessment with a plain explanation of what is going on, followed by a written plan and honest timeframes for getting back to work, training or play. Follow-up visits build on that plan with hands-on treatment and strength work that suits a busy week. Royal Prince Alfred Hospital is close by in Camperdown, and plenty of people book with us once they are home after a stay there. We also see people in nearby Glebe, Annandale, Camperdown and Darlington.
