Novar Sports Physio is run by Adrian, a qualified physio with hands-on experience in competitive sport. He understands what it’s like to train hard, chase performance, and feel held back by injury.

Adrian takes a holistic approach to recovery. That means looking beyond the injury itself — addressing movement patterns, recovery habits, training load, and even nutrition — to get you back to your sport stronger and more resilient.

Our Services

  • We use manual therapy (hands-on treatment) to help relieve pain, reduce stiffness, and get your body moving better. This might include joint mobilisations, soft tissue massage, and stretching—tailored to what your body needs.

    It’s a great way to speed up recovery, ease discomfort, and support your overall treatment plan.

    Whether it’s your first session or part of ongoing care, you’re in good hands—literally!

  • Dry needling is a great way to help release tight muscles, ease pain, and improve movement. It targets trigger points using fine needles to get deep into the muscle and reset it—kind of like hitting the refresh button for your body.

    It’s quick, effective, and can be included as part of your treatment or booked on its own depending on what you need.

    Not sure if it’s right for you? Just ask—we’re happy to chat it through!

  • These comfy compression boots help boost circulation, reduce muscle soreness, and speed up recovery—perfect after a tough workout or a long day on your feet. Just sit back, relax, and let the boots do the work.

    You can book a session with the boots on their own—no physio appointment needed!

  • We create personalised exercise programs to help you reach your goals—whether that’s recovering from injury, building strength, or improving mobility.

    At our clinic, you’ll have access to our fully equipped gym where we assess your strength, movement and technique, so every exercise is right for you.

    No guesswork—just a plan that works for your body and your lifestyle.

  • Whether you’re training for a race or just want to run more comfortably, our running assessments can help you move more efficiently and reduce your risk of injury.

    We use a treadmill to assess your running technique and the latest technology to test your strength, power, and mobility—giving us a complete picture of how your body moves.

    From there, we’ll build a plan to help you run stronger, faster, and with less pain.

  • Recovering from surgery? We’re here to help you get back to your best with a tailored rehab plan that’s built around your goals and needs.

    We work closely with your surgeon and doctor to make sure your rehab is on track, safe, and effective—every step of the way.

    With a combination of hands-on treatment, targeted exercises, and ongoing progress checks, we’ll guide you through recovery and help you regain strength, confidence, and function.
