Preventative Care for Summer Hill Residents
Summer Hill is Pro Health Clinic's immediate neighbour, separated by just over a kilometre along Old Canterbury Road.

Many Summer Hill residents treat our clinic as their local health centre.
Our Approach to Preventative Care
Preventative care at Pro Health Clinic focuses on identifying and addressing the mechanical, postural, and lifestyle factors that lead to musculoskeletal injury before symptoms become established. For patients who sit at a desk for extended periods, participate in repetitive sport or physical work, or have a history of recurrent injury, proactive assessment and management significantly reduces the risk of future episodes.
A preventative care consultation assesses movement quality, postural habits, strength imbalances, and load management strategies relevant to your activity profile. Your practitioner provides specific exercise prescription, ergonomic advice, and a clear framework for maintaining musculoskeletal health — whether you're a competitive athlete, an office worker, or a parent managing physical demands at home.
What We Treat
- Postural and movement screening
- Strength imbalance assessment and correction
- Workplace ergonomics assessment and advice
- Sport-specific injury prevention programs
- Load management for recurrent injury patterns
- Ongoing maintenance care for musculoskeletal health
What to Expect at Your First Appointment
A preventative care assessment covers your movement patterns, strength, flexibility, and postural habits in detail. Your practitioner will identify your specific risk factors and provide a targeted exercise program and management strategy. Sessions are typically 45-60 minutes for assessment and shorter for follow-up maintenance visits.
