Reviews

“My 92 year old mother was confined to a wheelchair after a fall. Hurstville Physio Plus have her up and walking (with her walker) and she has improved greatly in her temperament as a result. Staff have been friendly and extremely kind to Mum while encouraging her to ‘go that little bit further’. Our family are extremely impressed with HPP.”

Specially Carol Leong is the best.”

“Had shocking headache due to cervical spondylitis. Hasn’t returned since being treated here. During treatment, Greg is educating me about postural issues to avoid further problems. Staff always cheerful and helpful. Nice, clean bathroom. Air-con.”

“The team at Hurtstville Physio Plus are very friendly and professional. I’ve been having Physio treatment here for the past 4 years and the results have been fantastic. Greg has been able to get me back to normal functioning after just one treatment. Any issue I’ve had has been dealt with then and there. I highly recommend Hurstville Physio Plus, you are in great hands”
