Physio Tempe

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

Physio in Tempe, at your home

Tempe 2044 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 Tempe, you'll get a clear plan from the first session.

Physio In Tempe: Tempe House, the Cooks River and the Princes Highway

Tempe sits on the northern bank of the Cooks River, and its story starts with Tempe House, built in 1836 for Alexander Brodie Spark to a design by John Verge and later a Magdalene asylum from 1885 to 1985. Tempe station opened in 1884 as Cooks River, and the Princes Highway and Unwins Bridge Road are still its main roads. Beside the river, Tempe Recreation Reserve holds football fields and netball courts. Our home-visit physios, through our partner clinic MoveWell Allied Health, travel to you wherever you live in Tempe.

About 3,550 people lived in Tempe at the 2021 Census, and the suburb has been home to IKEA since 2011, when the store opened. Add the station and the river reserve, and the mix takes in retail staff on their feet, commuters on the Illawarra line, and weekend footballers and netballers using the reserve. Seeing a physio at home saves a trip along those busy roads, and no GP referral is needed for a private visit. We can see you at work too, if a home visit is harder to fit in.

A first home visit in Tempe begins with a thorough hands-on assessment, so we can see how you move in the place you actually live, work and train. You leave with a clear written plan, an honest idea of timeframes and an explanation of what is driving the pain. People often book after a stay at one of the region's public hospitals, such as Royal Prince Alfred. We also visit nearby Wolli Creek, Undercliffe and Arncliffe. Follow-up sessions then build on that plan step by step.
