About Northwest Physiotherapy Group

Northwest Physiotherapy Group is an established physiotherapy clinic on Fletcher Street in Essendon, with a team that brings more than 70 years of combined experience in muscle and joint conditions. Practitioners are trained in the Ridgway Method, a whole-body assessment approach, and patients value the holistic, educational way they work through a problem rather than handing over a generic exercise sheet.

The clinic is known for genuinely investing in each person's recovery. Reviewers describe physios who take the time to educate, explain and guide, using mobility and flexibility tests before and after treatment so clients can see and feel the difference. That focus on long-term outcomes has earned strong loyalty, particularly among people managing chronic or recurring conditions.

Services span musculoskeletal and sports physiotherapy, women's health, prenatal and postnatal care, remedial massage, shockwave therapy, and running and gait assessments in a dedicated analysis lab. The clinic looks after a wide cross-section of the Essendon community, from athletes and desk workers to pregnant and postnatal women, with telehealth available for those who cannot attend in person.
