Active Physiotherapy Newtown

A great experience all-round! The receptionist who made my appointment over the phone was warm and friendly, and the physio, JT, was fantastic. JT listened to my concerns, was thorough, and treated me very well. Highly recommend this clinic (and JT) to anyone looking for a Physio!

John (plus Marty at times) has been my physio for 11 years. Through cricket and now running, John has just been incredible. He is a consummate professional - a subject matter expert, realistic, honest and always offering practical solutions. John has always had my best interests at heart. He wants me to get fixed as quickly as possible, instead of slowing down the process despite that being a better short term gain for him.
I cannot recommend Active Physio highly enough!

After 3 months of pain from a back injury, and two of those months seeing another physio with little improvement, I decided to get another opinion and came to John at Active Physiotherapy. After doing a full anatomical assessment he immediately identified the deeper cause of my back pain and after two sessions with him I’ve seen a massive improvement. I’ve been to a lot of physio’s in my life and John is miles better than the others (and from what I’ve heard, so is the rest of his team). Highly recommend!!

After visiting John at Active physio with lower back issues, John and his team worked tirelessly over a period of 6 years, addressing first my back then, my hips, knees, feet etc.. When I first visited John I couldn't put my shoes on without back pain. Within a couple of sessions I was moving freely. As my strength returned, my fitness returned, I lost weight and was able to engage actively with my daughters. I have now run 4 City2Surfs and now training for my first marathon. I cant speak highly enough about John and the team at Active Physio. We have now relocated to Perth and John assisted in finding a physio locally that he could recommend. I'm now focused on my health and well being for life.

Ive been seeing John at Active Physiotherapy for TMJ issues and headaches. John is an excellent physio who takes the time to really listen to his clients and communicates well. It is well worth the travel from Hornsby to Newtown to see him. He has reduced the severity of my headaches in a few sessions and has also provided me with exercises I can do myself to assist with recovery.

I came in with the worst click in my jaw, that locked up everytime I tried to eat anything bigger than a spring roll. I had seen another chiropractor 1/2 a dozen times before with no clear end goal in sight. Even though they relieved the discomfort temporarily, it came back more intense within weeks.
After seeing John Panagopoulos for just one session, the pain had subsided DRAMATICALLY. Two more sessions and some good advice later the problem is about 90℅ fixed. He was very gentle and good humoured, it almost seemed like he was doing nothing at all, but the change is amazing. This sounds like an infomercial but he is seriously amazeballs. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

After tripping over and injuring my ankle I visited John at Active Physio. The receptionist recommended John as he is the Sports Physio Specialist. 2 weeks later I am almost back to full strength. Thank you John!

Excellent, effective advice, well communicated.

About seven years ago, after bad experiences with other physios and ongoing, debilitating knee pain that was misdiagnosed as being 'arthritis', a friend strongly recommended that I see Active Physiotherapy at Newtown. In my first appointment, Steve worked out exactly what the problem was, treated me and gave me some exercises and my knee pain quickly disappeared. For subsequent injuries I have always gone back to Active Physiotherapy and they have been excellent at diagnosis, treatment and exercise recommendations for fast, complete recovery. I have recommended friends and family here and they have all reported having outstanding service and treatment here.
