Matthew Haswell - Physiotherapist

Qualifications 

Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Hons) 

Areas of Interest 

Matthew has a special interest in cycling injuries and bike fitting for managing and preventing injuries. He also enjoys treating all sporting and musculoskeletal injuries but has a particular interest in treating people with knee and hip pain. 

Why I became a Physiotherapist 

I became a physio because I am very injury prone and spent plenty of time in physiotherapy rooms receiving treatment for my many sporting injuries, most recently my dislocated shoulder. 

I also enjoy helping people and physiotherapy allows me to help people with their health and fitness, which is an area I am also very passionate about. 

I find it very rewarding to be able to help people with their pain and injures so that they are able to return to their normal life and achieve their goals. 

Something else about me 

I grew up in Toowoomba and Highfields and am a passionate cyclist myself. I live with my lovely wife Nicola and our pet.

Bike Fit

Being a keen cyclist Matt has a thorough understanding of cycling and the demands on the body. Using his knowledge of muscles, joints and injury, combined with his knowledge of cycling mechanics and performance, Matt can skillfully help you optimise your bike for your body and injury needs.

A cycling assessment involves a biomechanical assessment both of your injury on the treatment bed and your body on the bike. Where possible Matt works with you to make changes to your bike without increasing your equipment spend. Unfortunately, on rare occasions, standard equipment may not optimise your position on the bike and may lead to continued niggles. In these cases, Matt will discuss options with you once your current equipment has been optimised.

If you’ve got an injury concern on the bike, give us a call to book in to see Matt. (private health fund rebates may or may not apply).

Rugby Union

Rugby Union (XV’s and 7s)

We have a very long association with rugby union amongst the physiotherapists in our clinic. From covering game day and international tours for Toowoomba Grammar to previously doing game day coverage for local club teams, to helping out some of the members of the Aussie 7s team when they are back home on the Downs, to Isabelle and Seamus, having played rugby and 7s themselves, right down to Seamus having coached his young daughter’s team, it’s fair to say we know and love our rugby.

So if you have an injury that is limiting your rugby performance, we are the ones to see.
