Freddie Mitchinson is a physiotherapist based in Double Bay, NSW, working from Level 1, 451 New South Head Road, Double Bay NSW 2028.
In most physio appointments, people come in with pain or stiffness that makes everyday stuff harder. That might be aches that hang around, sore joints, or problems with movement that start to affect how you walk, work, or move around at home. Freddie also helps people who want to get stronger and move better, not just for today, but for the weeks ahead.
Sessions are built around physical therapy and hands-on care, including joint mobilisations when they’re helpful. If pain is part of the picture, the focus is often on pain management techniques that aim to calm things down and support steady progress. You’ll usually talk through what’s been going on, what you can manage right now, and what you want to get back to.
Exercise is a big part of the plan. Freddie can put together exercise programs that fit your body and your goals, whether you’re easing back into movement or trying to build up strength and confidence. These plans are meant to be practical. You get clear guidance on what to do, how to do it, and how to measure whether things are improving. Over time, the goal is to help you move with less pain and more control.
Appointments may include education on how your symptoms can change with activity, sleep, stress, and recovery. In many cases, that “whole picture” approach helps people feel more in control instead of guessing. If your problem is more about movement or range of motion, you’ll still get a plan that supports your day-to-day function. At times, adjustments are made as your body responds.
