Our team brings deep expertise across a wide range of women’s health concerns. Whilst we are not titled Women’s, Men’s and Pelvic Health Physiotherapists here at the Optimal Health Lab, our Physio team can be a great resource to help you on your journey and will be refer you into more specialised care (locally) if you need.
Our on-site Strength Lab is more than just a gym space—it’s a cornerstone of movement care at the Optimal Health Lab. Designed to bridge the gap between rehab and performance, this facility empowers women to train with confidence in a safe, supportive environment. Here, real-life movements are integrated into assessments, personalised rehab sessions, and our popular OHL Group Physio classes. Equipped with clinical Pilates apparatus, cardio and strength gear, plyometric tools, and cutting-edge technology like VALD Force Decks, the Strength Lab ensures every woman can progress from recovery to strength and beyond—all under expert guidance.
Ladies, if you're in the Diamond Valley, we’re here to support you—every step of the way.
Once you’ve booked your initial consultation with an OHL Physiotherapist, our admin team will send you a registration form. We kindly ask that you take a few minutes to complete it with your current medical history, relevant symptoms or concerns, weekly exercise routine, and personal goals. This helps us make your consultation more efficient and ensures we can provide care that’s tailored to your needs. You’ll also have the opportunity to upload any relevant imaging, referral letters, or medical documentation, which allows your Physiotherapist to prepare thoroughly before you arrive.
On the day of your appointment, please aim to arrive ten minutes early to allow time for check-in. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely, as this will help us assess your movement and function effectively. OHL Physiotherapists are not trained to do internal examinations, thus if you would like this style of assessment, please seek care elsewhere.
Our Physio team welcome private clients, as well as those supported by TAC, WorkCover, the Department of Veterans’ Affairs, self-managed and plan-managed NDIS, and Medicare plans with a GP referral. If you haven’t uploaded your documents in advance, please bring along any referral letters, imaging reports, or notes from your GP, obstetrician, midwife, or other health professionals involved in your care.

OHL is integrating a new athletic screening assessment into its practice to further enhance our community's sporting ability. This screening assessment combines range of motion, strength profiling, force deck analysis, and subjective training status to give athletes a comprehensive performance snapshot. By establishing a baseline and identifying key areas for improvement, we can tailor your training to enhance performance, provide insight on key metrics, and stay resilient throughout the season. Whether you're preparing for preseason, managing midseason demands, or simply aiming to train smarter, this assessment delivers the data-driven insights you need.
If you're experiencing back or neck pain with neurological signs and symptoms, a thorough neurological examination is crucial for accurate assessment and effective treatment. In this Optimal Tip learn more about what we mean by completing a neurological exam!
Squats, deadlifts, and calf raises are key movement patterns that should be part of every strength and conditioning program—regardless of age and activity level. These functional movements support joint health, improve posture and balance, and reduce the risk of injury while building strength where it matters most.
