Our Approach to Joint Dysfunctions
Joint dysfunctions and injuries encompass the full range of conditions affecting the synovial joints of the spine and extremities — from acute ligamentous sprains and joint locking through to chronic joint degeneration, post-traumatic stiffness, and inflammatory joint conditions. Pro Health Clinic's chiropractors and physiotherapists are experienced in assessing and managing joint conditions across all body regions.
Joint assessment at Pro Health Clinic identifies restricted motion, pain provocation patterns, surrounding muscle guarding, and contributing factors from adjacent regions. Treatment combines manual therapy — mobilisation and manipulation — with targeted exercise to restore full joint function and prevent recurrence. Where imaging or specialist opinion is required, appropriate referral is arranged promptly.
What We Treat
- Spinal facet joint dysfunction and locking
- Ankle sprains and chronic ankle instability
- Wrist and hand joint injuries
- Rib joint dysfunction and thoracic pain
- Foot and midfoot joint conditions
- Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction
What to Expect at Your First Appointment
Joint assessment involves passive and active movement testing, joint provocation and accessory movement assessment, and examination of surrounding soft tissue and muscle function. Your practitioner will identify the specific joint or joints involved and provide hands-on treatment with an exercise program to maintain and improve the gains achieved.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Pro Health Clinic from Dulwich Hill?

How do joint dysfunctions develop near Dulwich Hill?
Joint dysfunctions can develop acutely from trauma, sudden movement, or sustained awkward positions, or gradually from repetitive loading, postural habits, or deconditioning. Some joint dysfunctions occur without a clear cause. Identifying the contributing factors is important for preventing recurrence alongside treating the current episode.
Will a joint manipulation hurt near Dulwich Hill?
Joint manipulation (the 'click' or 'crack' technique) involves a controlled, low-amplitude thrust to a joint. Most patients find it relieving rather than painful. Some experience brief discomfort during the technique. Your practitioner will always explain the technique beforehand, and alternative mobilisation techniques that are gentler are available for those who prefer not to have manipulation.
How many sessions will I need for a joint problem near Dulwich Hill?
Acute joint dysfunctions often respond quickly — within 2-4 sessions. Chronic joint stiffness or post-traumatic joint conditions typically require a longer rehabilitation program of 6-12 sessions. Your practitioner will give you a realistic estimate at your first assessment.
