A Little History

Located in the heart of the Sutherland Shire, Miranda Physiotherapy and Sports Injury Centre was established in early 80’s and has a rich history of providing physiotherapy to the local community.
In 1993, the practice was purchased by Mark Edgar, a sports physiotherapist, who brought new expertise and skills, along with extensive links to a variety of local sports clubs to the practice.

A New Practice in Sylvania Waters

With continued growth, the practice moved to Sylvania Waters, with a new purpose designed facility located in the ground floor of Southern Districts Rugby Club in April 2001. The extra space allowed for the establishment of a multi-disciplinary Sports Medicine practice. We now have an extensive gymnasium, two private consultation rooms along with 5 Physiotherapy treatment tables and traction machine room. Along with the move, the practice name was changed to Southern Districts Sports Physiotherapy which reflects our aim to provide timely and knowledgeable sports injury management to the Shire and St George areas.

Reviews

“Definitely saved me from knee surgery after my first injury and nurtured me back to sports ready after my second injury which i needed surgery for. Great knowledgeable professional service. Highly recommended seeing these guys before and after surgery 5star”

“I had given up hope after seeing Doctor after Doctor and specialists for a shoulder that had been weakened through multiple dislocation events. I contacted Mark after giving up all hope with severe pain in my shoulder back in 2011 and during the first visit Mark diagnosed the issue I was facing just through his physical review and then started working on the problem. Within a couple of visits Mark had done waht seemed to be magic and I started to live again without the pain. I only have praise for Mark and th whole team. Will never see another Physio, and in fact most times I see Mark first to get his opinion on injuries before seeing a specialist, his knowledge is that good.

Keep up the great work Mark…”

“I have been going to Southern Districts Sports Physiotherapy for a number of years now and they have helped me cope with a number of different injuries over the last 10 years. Mark and the team there have been absolutely amazing and I could not have coped with my shoulder injury and surgery without them. I have complete confidence in them and would highly recommend them to anyone.”
