At Dx Physio, we believe that hearing about real experiences can provide insight and hope for those considering treatment. This page features authentic accounts from our patients who have achieved meaningful progress through our personalised care approach.

Our patient stories demonstrate the effectiveness of our evidence-based physiotherapy techniques and the dedication of our clinical team. Each journey is unique, but they all share one thing in common: a path toward improved function and quality of life.

These testimonials reflect the relationships we build with our patients and our commitment to achieving lasting results. While individual outcomes may vary, we take pride in helping people overcome physical challenges and return to the activities they love.

If you’re considering physiotherapy for your condition, we hope these stories inspire you to take that first step. Our clinic welcomes patients at all stages of their recovery journey, and we look forward to helping you write your own success story.

Client’s testimonial:

“I am a 44-year-old who has struggled with plantar fasciitis for the past 7 years. After just 6 weeks of treatment, I have experienced significant improvement in my symptoms. The care and expertise provided by the DX physiotherapy team have made a remarkable difference in my daily life. I highly recommend their services!”

For years, one of our valued clients endured the daily struggle of persistent jaw pain, stiffness, and debilitating headaches. Her journey through various unsuccessful treatments finally led to an X-ray revealing calcification in her TMJ joint—the source of her long-term suffering. When she arrived at our clinic feeling discouraged, she met with our expert women’s health physiotherapist, Deman Xia. Understanding the complexity of TMJ disorders, Deman recommended a targeted approach using shockwave therapy. The results were nothing short of transformative. After just three sessions, the pain that had dominated her life for years completely disappeared. Today, she enjoys simple pleasures—eating, laughing, and living—without the shadow of chronic pain. Her story exemplifies not only the effectiveness of specialized physiotherapy techniques but also our clinic’s commitment to finding solutions for even the most persistent conditions.

Client’s testimonial:

I’ve been dealing with jaw pain for a few years and clicking my jaw at night, which I think contributed to the tension. I kept clicking my jaw to release the tension since I was experiencing lots of headaches. Prior to the shockwave therapy, this was impacting my ability to concentrate at work due to constantly dealing with headaches. After just three sessions of shockwave therapy, my headaches and tension completely disappeared. The shockwave therapy treatment has been a genuine game changer for me. If anyone is struggling with similar pain, I’d definitely recommend giving it a go.
