Our team focuses on evidence-based assessment and tailored plans that address the root cause of your pain, helping you recover, strengthen, and move comfortably in your day-to-day life.
Our podiatrist services address the unique foot and lower limb challenges faced by residents making their way through Deepdene’s varied terrain. The combination of steep footpaths, heritage bluestone surfaces, and mature tree roots creating uneven walking surfaces requires expertfoot care and biomechanical assessment. Schedule your appointment with our local experts.
Our foot clinic provides custom orthotics designed specifically for the demands of Deepdene living. Unlike generic insoles, our orthotics account for the constant gradient changes and provide the support needed for confident movement on both level surfaces and hills. We understand that your feet need different support when finding your way up the slopes compared to flat suburban areas.
From routine nail care to complex diabetic foot management, our podiatry team offers complete foot health services. We treat common conditions like plantar fasciitis, which often develops from the increased foot stress of hill walking, along with providing preventive care to maintain peak foot health.
What sets our approach apart is our specific understanding of Deepdene’s physical landscape and how it impacts your body. We don’t just treat generic knee pain but treat knee pain exacerbated by daily walks up and down streets like Whitby Street or Burke Road’s steep sections. Our biomechanical assessments consider the reality of living in grand Federation and Edwardian homes with their characteristic multiple levels and solid stone pathways.
During autumn and winter, we see an increase in patients who’ve slipped on wet leaves from the suburb’s magnificent Plane Trees and Oaks, a hazard unique to established, leafy suburbs like Deepdene. Our treatment plans include balance and proprioception training specifically designed to help you make your way through these seasonal challenges safely.
Our Deepdene physio services incorporate the latest evidence-based treatments to achieve peak outcomes. We offer dry needling for persistent muscle tension, manual therapy for joint restrictions, and targeted exercise programs that prepare your body for local physical demands.
Our clinical pilates classes are specifically designed for Deepdene residents. Unlike generic pilates, our programs focus on building the leg strength, core stability, and balance needed for confident hill walking. Small group classes provide targeted attention while providing the motivation of training alongside neighbours facing similar challenges.
For the tennis players at local clubs or golfers perfecting their swing, our sports physio services provide targeted rehabilitation. We analyse your technique, identify biomechanical issues contributing to injury, and create sport-specific recovery programs that get you back to peak performance.

Our founder-director Nadeena Thenabadu, an APA Titled Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist with multiple advanced qualifications, makes sure that every team member delivers the best possible standard of care.
