The Health Phyx was founded to offer an innovative look and feel to the physiotherapy profession — combining elite sport experience with a welcoming, results-driven approach.
Our Story
River, a former elite powerlifter competing at Australia's highest level, founded The Health Phyx after years of experiencing both sides of injury — as an athlete seeking treatment and as a practitioner delivering it.
Having worked across private clinics, community care, and hospitals throughout eastern Australia, River saw an opportunity to create something different: a clinic where high-performance principles meet personalised care.
Today, The Health Phyx is home to a team of practitioners who bring experience from Premier League football, university research, and elite Australian sport — all united by a commitment to getting you back to your best.
Our Values
Every decision we make is guided by four core principles.
Experience
Our team has worked across elite sport, hospitals, and community care throughout Australia and the UK.
Dedication
We stay current with evidence-based practices and continuously invest in professional development.
Professionalism
Every interaction is held to the highest standard — from your first call to your last session.
Collaboration
Your goals drive your treatment plan. We work with you, not just on you.
Our Facility
Our Burleigh Heads clinic features a fully-equipped gym and private recovery suite, meaning your entire rehab journey — from initial assessment to return-to-sport — happens in one place with consistent, quality care.
