About Rapid Recovery
Evidence-based, team-driven care for pain, injury & performance
Every week, more than 350 people choose Rapid Recovery across our three clinics — Healesville, Seville and Ferntree Gully.
Our 15-member clinical team includes AHPRA-registered Osteopaths, Myotherapists, and Remedial Massage Therapists working together to help people move better and live with less pain.
We’ve built a reputation for combining genuine care with clinical reasoning — delivering professional, hands-on allied-health care that supports lasting results.
Our Philosophy of Care
We believe everyone deserves to live free from pain and limitation.
Our approach works because we:
- Address the root cause, not just the symptoms
- Combine hands-on treatment, movement education, and rehabilitation
- Create personalised plans that support long-term health and performance
We don’t guess — we assess, explain, and guide every step of your recovery.
A Collaborative Team
Each practitioner at Rapid Recovery contributes their unique strengths while sharing one united goal:
To provide clear, consistent, evidence-based care that supports every client’s goals.
Our team regularly collaborates through internal mentoring, clinical leadership, and shared care pathways — ensuring you receive seamless support no matter which practitioner you see.
Growth Driven by Trust
From humble beginnings in Healesville, Rapid Recovery has grown through client trust and practitioner excellence.
Today, our clinics continue to expand — proof that ethical, patient-centred care builds community impact one appointment at a time.
