Whether it’s a stiff lower back or sore neck from sitting at a desk all day, pain after sport or recovery following surgery, spine related problems affect people of all ages. Our approach is designed wherever possible to identify and treat the underlying causes of spinal pain for improved control and longer term independence.
Every program begins with a comprehensive spinal assessment to determine underlying causes. Using tools like Real Time Ultrasound Imaging (RTUI), we assess deep core muscle function and spinal stability. From there, your physiotherapist develops a personalised plan that may include manual therapy, joint mobilisation, soft tissue techniques, posture correction, movement retraining, dry needling, laser therapy or strapping. We also provide ergonomic education for homes and workplaces as well as advice on sleep arrangements, such as pillow and mattress recommendations.
Ongoing monitoring and adjustments to your treatment plan ensure that care evolves with your progress, supporting recovery, pain relief and improved function.
Backcare goes beyond simply easing pain; it’s about equipping you with the tools to live well. At Health on High, patients who choose us for spinal physiotherapy experience:
Pain relief and mobility 
Improved posture and strength 
Faster recovery 
Long-term health

I have just completed post knee replacement Physiotherapy at Health on high. The staff, from reception to the trained personnel were engaging, friendly and above all very professional and explained the ensuing treatment fully and the expected outcomes. I cannot recommend Health on High strongly enough for any post operative Physiotherapy.
I have been seen by physio’s at this practice and in Baringa Private Hospital for years. Have always found them to be very knowledgeable, caring and professional at all times. Family owned and operated they are all very friendly and offer all kinds of treatments. Rose Ave has a small gym available also. Highly recommend for all your physio needs.
Went and saw for my hand, Fey was unreal. I had seen others about my hand but didnt receive anywhere near as much knowledge as I got by going here. Cant recommend enough.
Erin was so fantastic at helping my 20yo daughter who has autism and hates exercise feel totally at ease. Erin has motivated her in 1 session to want to exercise more and go back weekly. I highly recommend booking into exercise physiology with this business and especially with Erin.
All the staff are amazing. I have been going for a few months what a difference already. After being with another provider since 2018 glad I changed I’m that impressed my partner has changed to health on high and is enjoying her move as well.
Health on high always provides good quality care, and looks after all my needs.

Experiencing back or neck pain or stiffness can raise a lot of questions. Here’s what clients most often ask about our backcare services at Health on High and how our programs can assist with pain relief and mobility.
Backcare is a targeted branch of physiotherapy. Creating this division allows us to concentrate on spinal health, posture and mobility while still addressing broader musculoskeletal needs. Many clients benefit from integrated programs that combine targeted back treatment with general physiotherapy, helping improve overall movement and function.
No referral is required and you can book directly with us. A referral is only necessary if you’re accessing Medicare, WorkCover, or other funding programs. This makes it easy to book an appointment and start treatment promptly for faster relief.
Results vary depending on the cause of your back pain and your individual goals, which we will discuss in your first appointment. Some clients feel immediate relief from targeted therapy, while others benefit from a structured program that strengthens muscles, improves posture and protects the spine for lasting recovery.
