Mr Matthew James Farrell is a physiotherapist in Myrtleford, VIC. He works from 153 Myrtle Street, Myrtleford VIC 3737. Appointments are about helping people move better, feel more comfortable, and get on with their day.
As a physiotherapist, Matthew looks after a wide range of physical issues that can build up over time. That might be aches and pain from work or sport, stiffness after an injury, or ongoing discomfort that makes everyday tasks harder. At times it can also be about trouble with posture, balance, or how your joints move.
In many cases, the goal is to reduce pain and help the body work the way it should. Sessions can include physical therapy exercises, which are often tailored to what the person can do right now. These exercises usually build step by step, with a focus on safe movement, steady progress, and good form.
When joints feel stiff or don’t move smoothly, joint mobilization may be used. This is aimed at improving movement and easing tightness, rather than just “stretching and hoping.” Soft tissue massage can also be part of care, especially when muscles feel sore, tight, or overly guarded.
Posture correction is another common part of treatment. If your shoulders, hips, or spine have started to sit in a way that causes strain, small changes and simple strength work can make a big difference. Range of motion exercises are often included too, particularly if the issue is linked to limited movement or a sore after-effect from an injury.
People come in with different stories and different timelines. Some want help straight after an event. Others have been managing symptoms for a while and want a plan that feels practical. Sessions tend to focus on what’s causing the problem, how to manage it, and what to do next so things don’t just settle and then flare up again.
Matthew can help with hands-on physiotherapy and an exercise plan that fits around real life. The treatment style is steady and down-to-earth, with clear next steps. If you’re unsure whether physiotherapy is the right place to start, the best move is to book an appointment and discuss your symptoms and goals.
