Physio Lewisham

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

Physio in Lewisham, at your home

Lewisham 2049 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 Lewisham, you'll get a clear plan from the first session.

Physio In Lewisham: From Josephson's estate to the railway bridge over Long Cove Creek

Lewisham took its name in 1834 from the estate of Joshua Josephson, a German-born businessman who later became mayor of Sydney, and the suburb covers just 0.64 square kilometres. Its railway heritage is serious: the Whipple truss bridge over Long Cove Creek, built in 1885 and 1886, has been described as probably the most significant railway bridge site in Australia. The station followed in 1885, and light rail now stops at Lewisham West and Taverners Hill. Book a home visit and one of our physios, through our partner clinic MoveWell Allied Health, will come to you.

Lewisham had 4,060 residents at the 2021 census, with a median age of 34. Nearly half of homes were rented, and 57 per cent of dwellings were flats or apartments, with separate houses making up most of the rest. Between the schools on The Boulevarde, the station and two light rail stops, desk and commuter backs, weekend sport niggles and the aches of busy parents all turn up here. We come to your home or workplace, and a private visit needs no GP referral.

What you get first is an hour with a physiotherapist: a hands-on assessment, a clear explanation of what is going on and a written plan for the weeks ahead, with honest timeframes. The aim is the strength and movement that put you back at work, on the field and doing what you like. Neighbouring Summer Hill, Petersham, Dulwich Hill, Leichhardt, Marrickville and Ashfield are covered too. Royal Prince Alfred, Concord and Balmain are the public hospitals for the area, and people often book after a stay at one of them.
