About the Business
Welcome to 3D Physio, located in the beautiful coastal suburb of Ocean Reef, Australia. Our establishment is a health-focused institution that specializes in treating various conditions, particularly those related to breathing, the rib and thorax areas, and the lumbo-pelvic region.
Our founder, Kate, has a wealth of experience working in critical care units at Royal Perth Hospital, which sparked her interest in treating clients with complex injuries, chronic pain syndromes, and poorly understood pain complaints. With her expertise in the three areas linked with breathing - lumbo-pelvic, cranial/sacral, and rib/thorax - Kate decided to start her own business, 3D Physio, to provide focused treatment for these areas and cater to complex clients who haven't found success elsewhere.
We understand that many individuals with pain often find that exercise or movement exacerbates their condition. This is particularly true when it comes to breathing, as any movement or exercise emphasizes the need for proper breathing. That's why Kate's attention and passion have been devoted to these areas for the past 25 years.
3D Physio was created so that Kate could treat patients with chronic pain in the community, focusing on achieving fantastic results. Kate's background in swimming and water polo during her youth has instilled a commitment to personal fitness, and she remains a regular ocean swimmer.
One aspect that is often overlooked as a cause of pain and injury is the rib and costovertebral joints, where the ribs join the spine. These joints play a crucial role in breathing and movement of the torso, shoulders, and neck. Stiffness in these joints or tightness in the muscles that attach to the ribs can lead to various degrees of pain, ranging from mild annoyance to severe sharpness. The pain often refers to the chest and can impact breathing, restricting the depth of breath and causing discomfort.
Similarly, the pelvis serves as the foundation of the spine, and if it doesn't provide proper support, issues such as persistent lower back pain, pain in the buttocks, or coccyx can arise. Factors such as pregnancy, car accidents, poor posture, repetitive movements, and falls onto the bottom can contribute to pelvic issues.
Kate has undergone training in the Ridgway Method, a comprehensive system of treatment that considers the interconnectedness of the body. This approach allows for a thorough assessment that looks beyond the painful areas, uncovering other factors that may contribute to the injury. By addressing these areas further away from the pain, we often achieve better results.
You can find us at Suite 2, Beaumaris Shopping Centre, Constellation Drive, Ocean Reef, WA 6027. Our reception hours are Monday to Friday, 8 am to 7 pm, and Saturday, 8 am to 12 pm. Kate's clinical days are Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
If you're experiencing any of the conditions or pains mentioned, or if you have an injury that hasn't resolved, we recommend making an appointment to determine if your pain is originating from these structures. Our dedicated team at 3D Physio is here to help you achieve a pain-free and fully functional life.
