Full Time Physiotherapist: Strength-Based Rehab & Spinal Care

Full Time Physiotherapist: Strength-Based Rehab and Spinal Care | Gold Coast, QLD

About the Role

A physiotherapy and strength training clinic on the Gold Coast is looking for a full time Physiotherapist who believes long-term results come from exercise. Physios, exercise physiologists and exercise scientists work together under one roof, so patients move from assessment and treatment into a tailored strength program without leaving the clinic.

About the practice

• A clinic built around strength-based rehab, with physiotherapy at its core
• Physiotherapists working alongside exercise physiologists and exercise scientists
• A clear patient journey: a detailed physio assessment and treatment plan first, then a handover to a customised strength program
• Purpose-built strength equipment used for both rehab and training
• Objective strength testing to give each patient a measurable starting point and benchmark
• A calm, uncluttered training space with no music, no mirrors and no distractions
• A caseload that includes spinal conditions, shoulder, knee, hip and ankle problems, scoliosis and pre and post surgical rehab
• Clients of all ages and abilities, from people managing pain to those building strength for sport or work
• Funding through private health, chronic disease management plans, WorkSafe, MAIC, NDIS and DVA
• Additional programs such as balance classes and healthy ageing support
• Free client parking at the clinic

What you’ll be doing

• Carrying out initial assessments and building treatment plans for each client
• Treating a range of spinal and peripheral conditions with an exercise-focused approach
• Using objective strength testing to guide and track progress
• Handing clients over to exercise scientists for tailored training programs, and reviewing their progress together
• Supporting patients through pre and post surgical rehab
• Completing referrals and reporting for funded clients such as WorkSafe, MAIC, NDIS and DVA
• Working closely with exercise physiologists and the wider clinic team

What we’re looking for

• Current AHPRA registration as a Physiotherapist
• Availability for a full time role
• A strong interest in strength-based rehab and exercise as treatment
• Comfortable working with spinal and general musculoskeletal presentations
• Clear communication that helps patients understand their program
• Experience with funded schemes such as WorkSafe, MAIC, NDIS or DVA is a plus
• A team-first attitude and a preference for evidence-based care

What’s in it for you

• A full time role in a clinic where exercise is the foundation of treatment
• Objective strength data to help you track and explain progress
• Close collaboration with exercise physiologists and exercise scientists
• A focused, quiet working environment away from a typical busy gym floor
• Variety across spinal, peripheral, pre and post surgical and sports cases
• On-site parking for clients, and a role with strong community links on the Gold Coast

Location

• Southport: A major Gold Coast hub with cafes, parklands, the Broadwater close by and easy access to the light rail
