What is an NDIS Physiotherapist?

How can we help our NDIS Participants?

Participant Success Story

Jacky, a 27-year-old female with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) level 2, came in a year ago seeking help with her shoulder and lower back pain. She experienced sharp pains across the top of her shoulder and into her neck when she moved her arms up, and her back pain was across the whole lower back when she picked something up from the ground and slept on her back.She expressed that her pain was affecting her employment, which she looks forward to each week.

During her initial consultation, Jacky was assessed and diagnosed with rotator cuff tendinitis and lower back disc bulges. It was noted during the assessment that these injuries had been caused by poor muscle tone and coordination, which is common in ASD. The consultation also included education on these two injuries, the rehabilitation time frame, and what to expect during the process.

Over the course of about 12 weeks, we successfully treated these injuries and have continued to improve her coordination and muscle tone to help limit further injury or aggravation. Jacky is currently back to work with no pain and attends Doveston Health once a week.
