Return to sport testing and high performance rehab
Minimising or stopping the pain is one milestone. Getting back to full performance is a different one entirely.
For athletes returning from significant injury, we offer objective return to sport testing using VALD performance technology. This measures strength, power, and asymmetry to give a data-driven picture of your readiness.
We also offer injury risk screening and athletic performance rehab for athletes focused on staying injury-free and improving their physical output. This is where rehabilitation moves beyond recovery and into performance.
Did you know?
North West Physio Sippy Downs brings the same testing technology used by professional sports teams to the Sunshine Coast.
VALD testing measures the exact strength and power benchmarks your injured limb needs to match before you’re confidently cleared for a safe return to full training and competition. The same standard of assessment used by elite athletes, now available to you in Sippy Downs.

Sports physio Sunshine Coast FAQs
How do I know if I need a physio or if I should just rest?
If pain is affecting your movement, your training, or your daily life, get it assessed. Most injuries respond better to early, appropriate treatment than rest alone. A physio can tell you exactly what’s happened, what it means, and what to do about it.
Do I need a referral to see a sports physio at Sippy Downs?
No referral needed. Book directly online or call the clinic. If you have imaging or reports from a GP or specialist, bring them along as they’ll help us get a clearer picture faster.
Can you help with recurring injuries?
Yes. Recurring injuries usually point to an underlying movement issue or strength deficit that hasn’t been properly addressed. We look at the full picture, not just the site of pain, and build a programme that targets the root cause.
