Physiotherapist: MSK, Hands-On Manual Therapy & East Meets West Treatment

We're recruiting for a Northern Beaches private practice where the treatment table comes first. No parking patients with a machine for 20 minutes, no cookie-cutter exercise sheets. Just skilled hands, sharp assessment and a team that cares about getting people properly better. About the practice • A musculoskeletal clinic that blends Western physiotherapy with elements of traditional Chinese medicine • Hands-on treatment is the heart of how the team works, including massage, dry needling and acupuncture • Cupping and taping sit alongside manual therapy and exercise rehab • A treat-the-whole-body mindset, with plenty of patient education so people understand why they hurt, not just where • A “minimal treatment, maximum recovery” attitude, which patients tend to appreciate • A caseload that covers shoulders, necks and headaches, backs, knees, hips, feet and ankles • Pre and post-op rehab, plus preventative programs aimed at helping people avoid surgery where possible • A mix of weekend warriors and competitive athletes, with a genuine love of sport across the team • Access to a radiofrequency-based therapy device that very few clinics in Australia have • Weekday trading hours, so no weekend rosters What you’ll be doing • Assessing and treating a varied musculoskeletal caseload with a strong manual therapy focus • Using dry needling and, where it suits you, exploring acupuncture and cupping as part of your toolkit • Guiding patients through sports injury rehab, return to play and injury prevention • Running pre and post-operative rehab programs • Explaining the “why” behind each condition so patients leave informed and confident • Working alongside a close team that shares ideas and treats the whole person What we’re looking for • Current AHPRA registration as a Physiotherapist • Confident, hands-on manual therapy skills • A genuine interest in musculoskeletal and sports physiotherapy • Dry needling experience is a plus, and curiosity about acupuncture or Eastern techniques is a bonus • Warm, down-to-earth communication that puts patients at ease • A preference for helping people get better quickly rather than keeping them coming back for the sake of it What’s in it for you • A treatment style that leaves room for your own hands and clinical judgement • Exposure to techniques you won’t find in most private practices • Variety, from everyday aches to athletes to surgical rehab • A friendly, welcoming clinic culture • Weekday hours with no weekend work • A technology adjunct to use as part of your treatment, not a replacement for your skills Locations • Brookvale: A busy Northern Beaches hub with great coffee, easy bus links and the beach a short drive away Interested in the role?
