DiY is individual 1:1 treatment for Chronic/Complex Back and Neck pain, Sports Injuries and Orthapaedic rehabilitation from a very experienced Physiotherapist delivered in a bespoke clinic in the Sydney suburb of Kensington. Every initial consultation is for a minimum of 1 hour.

At DiY we have a particular interest in back and neck pain sufferers who still have pain despite numerous treatments from a number of therapists. These more troublesome and chronic conditions require a more holistic view and some real experience.
After working with elite athletes and weekend warriors and with many years of on-field injury management in some of the toughest games in men’s and women’s sport, DiY Physiotherapy provides high level professional injury management. We can then deliver a rehabilitation process that matches your level, your motivation and your lifestyle.
I have personally undergone Knee Replacement Surgery and Hip Replacement Surgery. I now see many pre-op and post-op joint replacement clients and work with Sydneys top orthopaedic surgery teams to achieve optimal post op rehabilitation.
“Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will” – Mahatma Ghandi
At DiY Physiotherapy I choose to do things differently because I know that, given the choice, most people want to take an active role in their own healing. I also know that genuinely good therapy does three things:
DiY Physiotherapy is for those people who value knowledge and self empowerment and who want to be a significant partner in their own healing
DiY Physiotherapy is the culmination of over 30 years of clinical experience. I opened my first one-man clinic in South Coogee in Sydneys Eastern Suburbs in 1990. Within 4 years that clinic was the largest independent integrated physical health clinic in Sydneys East. Over the next few years I established and ran 8 clinics and health businesses and employed and trained over 200 staff. I now bring all that experience, expertise and wisdom back to where it all started – in the clinic, one-to-one with each individual client and taking the time to fully understand the issues in each case.
Professionally I have a wealth of experience with sporting injuries and teams.
These include:
Randwick Rugby
St George FC, Apia Leichardt FC, Easts FC, Pagewood Botany FC, Inter Lions FC
Randwick Netball Association
East Sydney AFL
Moore Park Rugby League
South Maroubra Surf Life Saving Club
I have a particular interest in complex back and neck pain I am one of the very few Credentialled McKenzie practitioners in Australia.

Would highly recommendPosted on Google Ursula aczelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I couldn’t recommend Brendan more. He is experienced, thorough, caring and picked my back instantly. Brendan cares deeply about his clients and even called me a few days after our first session to check in and provide some verbal advice between sessions. I’ve been to plenty of Physios and none even came close to the standard of Brendan.Posted on Google Ben WaterhouseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
