ABOUT US
TURN SETBACKS TO STRENGTH
Strides Physio is a private, boutique physiotherapy clinic in Newcastle, NSW, dedicated to providing personalised care for sports and musculoskeletal injuries. Our mission is to not only treat injuries but also to empower our clients to prevent future injuries through targeted exercise programs.
Led by our expert physiotherapist, we offer comprehensive diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation plans tailored to each individual's needs. Our treatment modalities include soft tissue release, mobilizations, and dry needling techniques, all designed to alleviate pain and restore function.
What sets us apart is our strong emphasis on exercise-based rehabilitation. We believe that exercise is key to facilitating recovery and preventing injury recurrence. That's why we incorporate strength and conditioning as well as reformer exercise, into our rehabilitation programs.
In addition to traditional physiotherapy services, Strides Newcastle offer private and duet physio-led reformer exercise sessions, strength and conditioning sessions, and specialised run coaching.
Whether you're recovering from an injury or looking to enhance your athletic performance, our dedicated team is here to support you every step of the way.

OUR PHYSIO
Elise is our dedicated and compassionate principal physiotherapist at Strides Physio in Islington (Newcastle NSW). Graduating with a Bachelor of Physiotherapy with Honours in 2018, Elise has since amassed over five years of experience in sports private practice. Her expertise extends to teaching both 1:1 and group Pilates and exercise classes, reflecting her commitment to holistic patient care.
Elise's professional journey is marked by a range of additional qualifications, including mat and reformer Pilates, recreational run coaching, and dry needling. This diverse skill set allows her to offer comprehensive and tailored treatment plans to her patients.
A true advocate for patient empowerment, Elise is passionate about providing her patients with the education and tools necessary to take control of their injuries and overall health. Her personal experience with two ACL reconstructions gives her a unique insight into the challenges of recovering from long-term injuries, fostering a deep empathy and understanding in her practice.
Outside of the clinic, Elise maintains her own fitness through running, Pilates, and strength training. In her down time, you will likely find her cradling an oat latte in the sun.
Elise's approach is both professional and personal, ensuring that each patient at Strides Physio feels supported and equipped to achieve their health and wellness goals.
