Real Time Ultrasound

It is with great pleasure that we can announce Amanda Osbourne from AJ Physio will be joining us on Thursday 14 July to offer Real Time Ultrasound.

Real Time Ultrasound (RTUS) is a diagnostic tool used to evaluate and retrain the deep stabilising muscles (the core muscles) where needed.  Amanda will measure firing patterns and endurance times of your abdominal and pelvic floor muscles.  Using the RTUS allows for real time study of these deep muscles as they contract and allows both the patient and the physiotherapist to view the contraction as it happens.  This shows you what the ideal muscle response feels like.

Each assessment is 20 minutes long and is charged at $80.00.  Receipts will be emailed to you for claiming with your Private Health Fund.  You will be required to drink 400 mls of water 30 minutes prior to your appointment to ensure the bladder is full and a clear picture can be seen.

Please contact Caroline at reception to make a booking.  Appointments are available from 7AM till mid-morning.
