Six months ago I had an annoying and painful knee problem. I'm an active cyclist, hiker and walker and this was not what I needed. I visited a local clinic and after 4 treatments, things were getting worse, and I was not able to be as active as I wanted. Intro North Shore Physio Clinic and Liz Arruzza. I made an initial appointment with a bit of uncertainty, but I was quickly made to feel that I was in the hands of an incredibly capable physio. Liz asked focused questions and quickly diagnosed some issues. I was given some amazing "dry needling" together with sets of exercises to do with elastic supports over several weeks. Of course, your problem isn't going to go away without doing these exercises as directed - twice a day for me. Now my knee problem has been totally resolved and I'm back to my active self. Thanks to Liz for her knowledge, skills, professionalism and good humour during sessions. I'm incredibly grateful and could not recommend Liz and the North Shore Clinic more highly.

Recently I suffered a medical condition that impacted my left foot. This resulted in an on flow of issues to my right foot. In addition, walking, even with the aid of crutches, was very difficult and painful. Initially, my condition was treated by another local physiotherapy clinic with no improvement at all over five treatment sessions. After my initial one hour treatment with Elizabeth, the relief from the pain was immediate and substantial. I had my first night of sleep without the aid of pain meds. For someone who likes detailed information, Elizabeth was thorough in her diagnosis and explanation, and with each accompanying manipulation result was immediate pain relief for me. If you need an effective and thorough physiotherapist, please visit the Team at North Shore Physiotherapy Clinic in Crows Nest. I have no hesitation in recommending North Shore Physiotherapy Clinic.

I’ve been to plenty of Physio’s over the years.. and had my fair share of ‘prodding’ and instant relief. But now, at age 33, after a lifetime of dance eisteddfods and teaching Group Exercise, the releasing of muscles is not what I need. Stuart is amazing; truly gets to the root of the problem. I used to think it was all about massage and manipulation, but it’s more about the biomechanics. I don’t have a hip or leg injury, but rather an alignment issue. Although I knew this, I had no knowledge or understanding about what I should be doing to prevent injury or pain.. and you only get help when it’s sometimes too late! Stuart gives you reasoning and exercises that, not only give you immediate relief, are imperative to moving forward and training again. It’s a lifestyle thing, not a quick fix. And if only I knew this years ago.

Anthony’s well-rounded background, outstanding attention to detail and professionalism make him an incredible practitioner. His technical proficiency in physiotherapy + Pilates and the quality of his treatment is by far the best I have experienced in Sydney. Anthony has demonstrably improved my physical well-being over the last 3 months following a significant neck injury. He is diligent, patient and genuinely concerned about improving the physical welfare (and knowledge) of his patients, all the while maintaining a relaxed, supportive and productive atmosphere. This is clearly reflected in the excellent rapport he shares with his clients. Finally, the Crows Nest clinic is extremely well equipped and immaculately maintained. Absolutely first rate operation!

I first saw Stu during 2017/18 when he managed to guide me to a full recovery from a locked-up shoulder. I then moved away for 5 years but stopped in to see him every time I flew back to Sydney for a tune up. And now we’re working to correct some long running knee problems to get me back to running, and some other musculoskeletal issues arising from stored trauma. I’m hesitant to call him a magician, lest I make him sound like a quack, but his incredible sensitivity towards how my body is working (or not), depth of knowledge, and compassionate and articulate manner mean I always leave feeling immediately better, and with a plan for integrating the improvements in to my day-to-day life. I can’t recommend Stu more highly.

This place is amazing! I've been to many physiotherapists who tend to use 'band-aid' solutions to most issues, but Anthony gave me more insight into the cause of my problems in the first session than I'd ever received from any sports medicine practitioner. As an uncoordinated person I forget assigned exercises easily so the pilates classes are an excellent supplement and I'm finally learning the essential foundations I'd skipped over in the gym, the lack of which were causing pain and muscle tension. Can't recommend this place enough - they really do know how to put permanent solutions into place.

Thank you Anthony, Stu and Cheryl for sorting out my severe pain and all my niggles in the form of chronic muscular tightness/stiffness due to my poor foot strength in gait. You all give an incredibly professional and caring service in both physiotherapy and Pilates. The clinic is always clean and the vibe is great and upbeat. I like the way progression is monitored, that particular exercises given can then be incorporated in the Pilates lessons to gain faster progression. The consultations and Pilates have immensely improved my gait and enable me to be pain free to enjoy my active lifestyle.

North Shore Physio, has been life changing to my health. I’ve worked with Stewart to fix all my injuries and he helps me maintain. Also done Pilates with Anthony, taught me engage my core. After been so impressed by North Shore Physio, I’ve recommended all my friends and family. Everyone is blown away with professionalism knowing craft so well. Best thing is Stewart and Anthony are so lovely, you feel so looked after. Knowing your in good hands that care means the world. Thank you, all help for me and everyone I know. One of a kind place North Shore Physio

An absolute magician! I have in the past not had a lot of faith in Physio therapy. I have OA in my knees and was given exercises- within 2 weeks while there is still some pain- I can exercise without painkillers. Secondly, I had a sore neck for 3 month- again on pain killers, hot and cold packs, massages every 10-14 days- no effect. One session with Anthony and the next day a massive reduction in pain. Now follow up exercises which i will do as I I now have faith in PT. Thankyou Anthony!!

What a find this practice is! Stuart is a fantastic physio who really puts in the time and effort to get to the root cause of a problem. I am very impressed by his depth of knowledge and dedication, and feel very comfortable with my treatment. I would highly recommend North Shore Physiotherapy to anyone wanting a physio who listens and cares. I saw Anthony a few times a couple of years ago and he is every bit as fabulous as Stuart!

Have been seeing Stuart for years now in treating various ailments from my athletic pursuits and there is no one else I would trust to keep my body ticking over and in the best shape possible. From small everyday niggles to post operative rehab, Stuart has fixed and continues to keep me mobile and moving at 48 years young. I couldn’t recommend both Stuart and Anthony any more highly. You’d be mad to go anywhere else

I see Liz and she is all things wonderful! She has been supporting me with a recent arthritis diagnosis, and assists most specifically with its repercussions on my knee and jaw! She is kind, invested and has connected so many dots between pain and mobility issues in different areas. I would certainly recommend her and the clinic to anyone who needs a professional and reliable but still really relatable physio.

Stu has been instrumental in my recovery from a horse fall about 5 years ago. My core strength was gone; so was the connection between my upper and lower body. Now as I challenge my body more, we have moved beyond recovery and into performance because I want to move better and be adventurous! Thank you Stu for caring about my well-being and helping me thrive! My life would not be the same without you❤️

Anthony is a tremendously passionate, dynamic and talented physiotherapist with an impressive if not authoritative knowledge of the intricate, technical and finer functioning aspects of the human body. He brings extraordinary goodness of heart and genuine interest to best serve the highest needs of his clients: I admire his down to earth, personable, engaging and thorough approach. He is a great guy!

I have had amazing experiences with North Shore Physiotherapy. Elizabeth is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. She has helped speed the recovery of knee, hip, feet and back problems! She really takes the time to understand what the patient needs and is thorough and clear with her explanations. I would recommend North Shore Physio and Elizabeth to anyone! Thank you so much for helping me!

I have known Anthony for a number of years and his clinic has always been my first point of contact regarding any form of injury. He has treated me with injuries ranging from shoulder pain, back pain to injuries extreme as a broken leg. His personal touch, attention to detail and level of experience has me recommending this clinic to everyone I know. I can't rate this place highly enough.

I came for rehab 4 years ago after an injury and now cant stop coming. I love the pilates and overall body maintenance provided. I am 66 and these talented physios have restored me! New and old injuries, and bad body habits built up over years are gradually getting fixed. I particularly appreciate being able to do a pilates class with a physio that targets exercises to exactly my needs

I started working with Anthony 4 years ago after suffering a slipped disk in my lower back. After correct diagnosis and treatment, Anthony has helped develop a training program which has strengthened my core. This preventative program has meant I am back pain free to this day and achieving my physical goals. His friendly service and inquisitive nature make him a true professional.

Anthony and his exceptional team of professionals have helped me to walk without pain after tearing multiple ligaments in my ankle. They routinely correct and improve my posture, physique and quality of life after the wear and tear of being a highly active dancer. Worth every penny and I recommend them to everyone even when they don't ask! A lifelong customer! Thank you.

I am a very active but senior soccer player and always have a reason to see Anthony to straighten me out as a I suffer from 2 bulging disks in my back and various knee and calf issues. Anthony has always been able to sort me out by diagnosing the issues and getting me active again quickly, I can’t speak highly enough of his in depth knowledge and ability to assist. D.E.

Simply the BEST!!! Each appointment you feel very seen and heard for what's happening in your body- and come out feeling like you can use it all again! So thankful to have finally found a holistic practioner; they work hard to make sure you can function at your best. Good range of options of treatments, including reformer pilates, exercises and clinicial treatment.

I have been to several physiotherapists for my back pain but I found Cheryl from North Shore Physio to be the most effective! Cheryl is extremely knowledgeable, incredibly kind, very patient and caring and her treatment has helped me a lot. Her combination of dry needling and unique exercises has proven to be extremely effective for me. Highly recommend Cheryl!

Anthony is a consummate professional with incredible knowledge and skills. He has compassion and constantly goes above and beyond to help. I have multiple complicated musculoskeletal issues and I have always left feeling an increase in positivity. I could not recommend Anthony any higher. Thankyou to him and his team for providing such an amazing service.

Stu is a fantastic Physio who created a holistic and well rounded treatment plan which went to the core of the problem. He also liaised with Crows Nest F45 to ensure no further injury was sustained which was amazing. Anthony runs a great clinic which is clean and efficient. They’re also both a great chat (if that’s your flavour). Thanks guys!

Anthony has been a profound help with getting me back to being active. After experiencing extreme back pain, Anthony has been helping me locate the issue and constantly helps me improve the number of factors that contribute to my injury. His knowledge, and passion to help has vastly improved my back as well as my general well being.

Over the past few years, Anthony has helped me maintain and improve my posture, correct movement patterns and provide relief from the occasional injury. His thorough investigations have gotten to the root of a chronic back issue, niggling shoulder issue from tennis, and sore runner's knee. I highly recommend Anthony's services.

Loved the facilities. The physiotherapist was always on time to start my treatment. I never had to wait when I arrived there. The physiotherapist I consulted was quite methodical and he let me explain my situation in detail. This helped in formulating an approach which worked well for me and helped me on the path to recovery.

I have seen over 20 physiotherapist, chiropractor and osteopaths in my life - I have a chronic illness and am in chronic pain and Stu has been the best specialist - without a doubt . He has been so supportive and I have made huge improvements . Highly recommend , finally found the best .. I count myself very lucky …

I've been really happy with the physio services provided by the team, especially Liz. Very attentive to issues and they've been great in identifying muscular and joint problems very quickly, while also providing easy and effective exercises to improve my strength and range of motion. Definitely visiting again!

Excellent physiotherapist!!! As a weightlifter, it’s incredibly important to have physiotherapist that understands your sport and its demands (and who works in conjunction with your coach). Stuart has an amazing eye for detail and getting to the underlying cause of issues. Highly recommend.

Stu is an awesome physio! I’ve seen others, and he really sets the bar high with his knowledge, professionalism and attentiveness. He will work out what the core problem is and how it can be fixed, unlike some with just a band aid solution. Great location and good facilities too.

Been seeing Anthony for a long time for my chronic spinal and related injuries. Fantastic and punctual service, the best physio I've seen for my ongoing treatments. Can always feel a good difference after my treatments and always gets me going again! Would strongly recommend.

My physiotherapist is Elizabeth. She is always trying to figure my sore place out kindly and hard. I went to there because of my back pain but she explained to me the pain where came from exactly and how I should do in general life. she is the best a physiotherapist!!

Anthony has been helping me with postural, neck and shoulder issues. We have managed to reduce my headaches and neck pain. My shoulder has improved significantly and we continue my shoulder rehab with a structured program aimed at improving my range and strength.

North Shore Physio is a great clinic. I've been seeing Stuart consistently for over 5 years, however I've also been treated by Anthony, Cheryl and Liz as well and they are all fantastic practitioners. The practice is very friendly and warm. Highly recommend.

Elizabeth helped fix my chronic elbow pain that's been bothering me for over 8 years! She helped address the root of the issue instead of just treating the symptoms like other places I've been to. Thanks so much for getting me back to full strength!

Stuart is one of the best Physios going around, I would recommend him for any injuries or ongoing strength, mobility and body management. He is thorough, knowledgeable and takes the time to figure out the cause of any tightness, injury or imbalance.

Highly recommend this Clinic. Had been looking for the right person to help my daughter recover from spinal injury and get back to playing soccer. Very friendly, empathetic and professional staff. Grateful to have found expertise iny local area.

I've had many successful consultations with Anthony. He is thorough, empathetic and very professional. I trust that when I see Anthony he'll identify the cause of my pain and provide a clear roadmap to recovery in a supportive environment.

I visited Cheryl a few weeks ago After hurting my shoulder in an ice skating accident - She has been incredibly kind, I feel very comfortable with her and feel that her treatment helped a lot. Can very much recommend!

Stuart Dixon is amazing physio! He explained in simple language what’s happening with my muscles and joints and helped me with knee pain I had. Highly recommend his service if you want to stay fit and balanced.

The skills of Stuart are amazing. It’s quite profound what has been identified by Stuart that hasn’t been identified by any other practitioner. Will not choose any other treatment options except this practise.

I highly recommend this Physio clinic. Cheryl was amazing. She was professional, lovely, really knowledgeable and highly skilled. After just one appointment I am feeling so much better already. Thank you!

Have been coming here since an injury caused during lockdown. Not only did Stu & Anthony treat the injury, they also diagnosed underlying cause and never looked anywhere else. Always top class treatment

I have tried all the physiotherapists that work here and they all were incredibly knowledgeable and helped diagnose the real cause of my injuries in the first session. Highly recommended!

Great facilities and knowledgeable physios! Highly recommend this place for pain free management and ongoing rehab support. I refer everyone that is struggling with injury or pain here.

Highly recommend NS Physiotherapy - knowledgeable, friendly, flexible with times and moving them! I have been to a few physios now and they have no doubt been one of the best ones.

North shore physio is awesome, great level of care and attention and you’re in and out quick! Liz does a great job and works closely with you to achieve your personal goals

Knowledgeable practitioners who are great at fixing my injuries. Elizabeth has been awesome at diagnosing what's wrong and prescribing the right treatment and exercises.

These guys are fantastic! Highly recommend. An incredible hands-on approach which is much more helpful than only getting stretches/exercises. Left there feeling great!

Broke my knee 10 weeks ago (cartilage damage plus torn ACL). I have started walking again with confidence thanks to Anthony. A physio that truly looks after you

I am very happy I found the North Shore Physio team. Liz has been taking great care of me after a recent back injury and I cannot recommend highly enough.

I was literally blown away by Stuart's diagnostic ability, clear explanation of the issues & plan to address them. Couldn't recommend him more highly.

I have never felt better than after visiting Anthony at North Shore Physio. He explains everything in great detail and is easy to understand.

Cannot recommend Anthony more highly - incredibly professional, keen eye, astute, and provides excellent instructions regarding exercises.

Excellent service and a really good vibe inside the studio! Stu always takes the time to explain what’s happening. Highly recommend.

I’ve been working with Anthony for a couple of weeks, and the experience has been great. The pain in my arm is gone - love it …

Anthony is a great physio, very professional and easy to chat to. Received a great structured physio plan that’s worked wonders

Excellent physio clinic. Cheryl helped me with my knee and was very knowledgeable and thorough. Much appreciated!

Anthony is a super nice guy. Sessions were always on point. My shoulder felt better instantly after each session.

After just 3 sessions with Anthony my condition has greatly improved and I’m on the road to a full recovery.

I had knee surgery, and they have provided exceptional support and guidance to get me back up and running.

Anthony is a fantastic physio. Very professional and caring. I always walk out feeling a million dollars

Can confirm, great physio. Had a solid knowledge of my injury and explained it all in easy language.

My physio care after my injury has been fantastic, thank you for the help, you guys are the best!!

Amazing staff, so helpful and insightful. They provide so much detail when they treat you.

I've been going to see the physios here for years. The team is really switched on

Truly excellent physiotherapy services. A well run clinic too.

The best in the biz. Will change your life. Thank you Anthony!

Really friendly service. Beautiful clinic very professional.

Instant results! Highly recommend this Clinic.
