Central Performance

Fantastic experience: I received physiotherapy from Chris for acute lower back pain while on holiday, and I couldn’t be more grateful. I injured my back just a few days before traveling to Sydney, and after the flight, the pain and spasms were almost unbearable. I thought I might have to cut my holiday short, but after just two sessions with Chris, he completely turned things around—something I didn’t think would even be possible. Thanks to his expertise and care, I was able to continue my travels around Australia. I can’t thank Chris enough for helping me get back on my feet!

Fantastic experience: Ben Liddy is excellent: experienced, careful, thorough, highly knowledgeable and skilled! You couldn’t ask for a better physio

Fantastic experience: Extremely punctual effective service

Fantastic experience: Fantastic service all round.

Negative experience: Unfortunately didn’t make it to my appointment. I received this message yesterday saying that had moved location, but it looks like a scam/fake link and no email follow up. Not very professional unfortunately. I did call up to find the location they had moved to but again the receptionist did try, but he couldn’t articulate where to go. Hopefully they can clear up communications for customers in the future.

Fantastic experience: From weakness to strength wow what an outcome thank you Ben

Fantastic experience: Great physio and running centre and loved the exercise physiology!!

Fantastic experience: Ben is a star. Very, very knowledgeable about running. Helped me a lot. Beautiful clinic.

Fantastic experience: The team at Central Performance is great and one of the most professional outfits I've ever dealt with. If you are looking for expert physio help in Sydney I've seen Chris and Benny who are both great and have fixed any issues I've had and provided very clear exercise plans. For a great Exercise Physiologist I highly recommend Chris McCarthy he always does a great job in sessions. If you need a physio in Surry hills or Sydney give the team a call they will be able to assist.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant staff,very accomaditoning plus extremely informative and professional at there work I would highly recommend them!

Fantastic experience: I hurt my shoulder that I could not move it even half an inch, and I was in terrible pain from it day and night! I saw Chris Jackson who diagnosed it quickly (tendinopathy/tendinitis of two shoulder tendons) and was immediately able to give me a massage on the shoulder to smooth out the inflammation. He helped move my arm to give it some mobility. It hurt A LOT. But I actually admired that despite my yelps of pain, he kept gently going. It told me he was confident and a pro and it’s what I needed to get back on track. After every session with Chris, I felt I got a little bit of mobility back and always walked away (still in pain from the injury) but confident it was going to get better. I actually got worse before I got better (having a school kid and baby to take care of, I couldn’t rest). But 2 weeks on, my arm is basically back to full mobility and pain free. I reckon I have another few days/a week before I’m back to 100% but Chris really got me out of a really bad spot! Thanks Chris!!

Fantastic experience: Pinched nerve problem I tried other methods then a friend recommended Central Performance… I booked and was totally surprised by results. Not only helping cure but also to help strengthening & preventing. Professional & would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Really great experience at CP following a running injury. Staff are very experienced and felt well supported in my recovery.

Fantastic experience: Saw Ben for a running assessment last week and it was money well spent!

Fantastic experience: Very friendly, helpful staff. This was my first physio experience in a long time and it was great!

Fantastic experience: Ben has been great. Gets straight to it and explains what he’s doing and why. After 2 sessions I can already see improvements in my running with just small adjustments.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend! Very helpful, kind people.

Fantastic experience: Great physio. Would recommend.

Fantastic experience: I had been injured for seven months and tried three other practitioners before trying Central Performance; Chris helped me make a dramatic improvement in two sessions. Chris' advice has been very practical, and my maintenance exercises are not too complicated or time-consuming. This practice obviously has an excellent rationale of wanting their patients to be able to self-maintain (rather than telling them to come back every week). Would highly recommend you invest your time and money in this physio!

Fantastic experience: Excellent service. Considerate, kind, helpful physiotherapist. Good follow up feedback. I have had great results from the exercises given to me to do at home.

Fantastic experience: Ben was very helpful in helping to adjust my running gait. Good support and advice helped me to run much more efficiently.

Fantastic experience: No matter if you are overcoming a running-related injury or recovering from an orthopedic surgery—this clinic has the best specialists that will guide and push your recovery forward.

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Sonja for neck pain, and she has been great, providing me with almost instant relief. 5 Stars.

Fantastic experience: Had a massive incentive to get fit (first time ever!) during Delta lockdown. Chris McCarthy is now officially my hero, the best. Knows all my health issues, tailoring everything to ensure no further damage. Now upped to 5 personal sessions with him each week and he's getting me addicted. At 57 I'm finding I have actual muscles thanks to Chris, lol. Receptionist Pam is friendly and super competent, always having everything in hand, esp. if scheduling issues occur.

Fantastic experience: Great staff and service

Fantastic experience: I recently saw Ben Liddy for a running injury, he was really thorough and gave me great advice. I would recommend Central Performance to any fellow runners who want to stay in training while rehabilitating their injuries. Thanks!

Fantastic experience: The therapist (Ben Liddy) knew what had to be done to loosen up my lower back, which immediately stopped the pain. Will recommend!

Fantastic experience: I have very recently started treatment at Central Performance and am super impressed. Andrew has worked wonders on my back in just two sessions and is extremely pleasant and professional. The other person I have had contact with is Pam at reception who is also extremely pleasant and professional. She made me feel very welcome straight away. Would recommend 100%

Fantastic experience: Been seeing Ben Liddy for years here. Always spot on with identifying issues and naming best response. Particularly like his experience as a runner too. Great playlists always on!

Fantastic experience: I've been having physio for my hamstring with Andrew Lau for the past 5 months or so. I have made more progress in these last few months with him than I have in the entire 1.5 years with other physios since I tore it. He is very attentive, kind, and even responds promptly to all my emails! I really enjoy my sessions with him as we get on so well. Plus, he has awesome food recommendations too.

Fantastic experience: I've bounced around a few physios looking for the right one, I found them at Central Performance. Highly recommended the staff who are friendly, knowledgeable and take a genuine interest in getting you back to your physical best.

Fantastic experience: Valuable advice and professional instructions has been given by Mr. Andrew ,our case is after operation on elbow. great improvement! highly recommend! Later on Mr. Ben helped me to improve balance&strength, again it does work, truly a good one.

Negative experience: I wait over a week to see the therapist I was recommended to see to be called on the day of the appointment to say he was going away for two weeks so would need to see someone else. Poor showing.

Fantastic experience: Great experience every time I go to the clinic. Very Professional team of Physiotherapists and have had great outcomes with my back.

Negative experience: Really unprofessional company! Called Friday and booked in to see one of the physiotherapist. 5mins before my session at 8.30am when I reached the central the reception called and said it’s better I came in next week sat for my treatment because this consultant was at his last day. She said it better this way than having new person taking over. Didn’t even have the courtesy to call me earlier or even mentioned this on during the time when I called to book. Very reluctant to apologise, completely wasted my Saturday morning! Don’t even come here for your treatment! Received the most ridiculous call back after my review. The reception, or whoever that was, called to apologise and offer to make it up to me with a discount or offer another booking next Sat. Then she rescind her offer because CTP claims are not entitled to a discount. Not only it’s a waste of my time again, but she totally missing the point. I am not certain why she would think I would like to see them again when we were off with a bad start. I am not even sure why the owner wants to speak to me personally when the reception already failed twice. Guys, if the health carers are not able to respect your time, you shouldn’t let them take care of you.

Fantastic experience: I've been seeing Tom for the last few months to strengthen my lower back after an injury last year. I have seen a few physios since the injury and can honestly say that I have felt the most improvement with Tom. He is friendly, supportive and fun to exercise with. The clinic is also well set-up with all the right equipment to help me reach my goals. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Really good Physio! Seb is awesome. My injury has continued to heal with Seb’s help. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I originally went here to deal with a bad rotator cuff injury that kept recurring. I had seen numerous physiotherapists at different clinics, but Kieran was the first physiotherapist that was able to not only relieve my ongoing pain efficiently (and painlessly!), but he also identified why the injury kept reoccurring and what I needed to do to prevent it. I then moved onto training with Danny to build up my strength and correct my form so I could learn to work and exercise without re-injuring my shoulder. Training with Danny enabled me to have the confidence and skills to manage my shoulder injury and physical health independently. I'll be forever grateful to Kieran and Danny for helping me with my shoulder injury and to Pam for always making me feel welcome. It was really nice to have the physio and training all in one place. :)

Fantastic experience: Great professionals! The ladies at reception are sharp & helpful. Chris the principal physio has restored me to upright on numerous occasions. Ruben is a very good, creative & knowledgeable clinical pilates instructor.

Positive experience: Impressed by the professional and friendly manner of Chris Jackson as he treated me. He showed concern that he was not causing hurt or discomfort. Their app is innovative and ensures I don't forget what exercise/s I am doing at home .

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this place and every single physio is incredibly professional and friendly! I would also highly recommend the coaching that they offer for both track racing and general strength and conditioning!!

Fantastic experience: I've been here on and off for a few years for a variety of issues and have seen a few different people. My experience has been consistently excellent, with everyone being friendly and knowledgeable and always getting good results. They have good facilities there too and a range of services so you don't ever have to get sent off to other places. I highly recommend them.

Fantastic experience: Truly one of the best establishments on offer. These guys aren't the type to exaggerate issues or stretch problems out like I've experienced other place's do - they genuinely want to get you back on your feet and doing what you love efficiently and in the strongest way possible. I already recommend Chris, Seb and Liddy to people; but truthfully, the quality of service and professionalism is established right from the front of house into their external programs - like the run squad which I happen to be a part of. If I wasn't happy with how everything works then I wouldn't keep going back. Also /such/ a convenient location - two/three minute walk from the south concourse at central station. Best Physio in Sydney hands down.

Fantastic experience: Great services all round. Can't fault

Fantastic experience: Great establishment filled with hard working professionals that are dedicated to their jobs. Quite often I purposely injure myself just so that I can head back into Central Physio to see the team! Ha ha. I am lonely

Fantastic experience: The team here is amazing!! Being a rather injury prone athlete, I can safely say they've done an amazing job at not only guiding me through the big injuries, but helping me manage all the little niggles as well. The friendly and qualified staff went above and beyond when it came to understanding my injury and running goals, providing me with a very holistic approach to rehab.

Fantastic experience: Love coming here for my weekly clinical Pilates sessions. The sessions are small and super tailored to everybody's needs. The staff are fantastic and fun! Completely fixed my back problems, I'd highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Wow! What can I say!!? Best physio I have ever been to. Not only have they got me back on track to achieve all of my goals, but the Physios really know how to have quality banter, haha. Plus! The location is so convenient, I can just hop on the train from a tough day at the office, have my physio appointment before going back home to the wife and kids. Thanks Central Performance Physio, I am back running my usual 180km weeks!!

Fantastic experience: Very professional team. The best in Sydney :)

Fantastic experience: Very friendly and have a great, hard working team

Fantastic experience: Excellent Coaching & Physiotherapy services.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic holistic approach, addressing the underlying concerns whilst building up strength for long term gain. Thanks to Sophie and Seb for great physio work and to Danny, for building our strength and confidence at HERO, a strengthening and conditioning class. All staff are friendly and knowledgeable and Pam is a constant friendly face to welcome you. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: A lovely team of dedicated physios who will work hard to improve your ailment

Fantastic experience: I've been training at Central Physio for 3 years since breaking my ankle. They've helped me regain strength in my ankle and over the years, worked with me by tailoring my strength and conditioning sessions specific to my sport. I'm the strongest I've ever been! All the staff are friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I was their client for more than two years. It's all started with massage to fix my back pain, when my therapist advised to see a physio and exercise physiologist. Some easy routine made the pain go away, but I came back for a training plan, and kept coming back to update it. Finally, I've started training with Hugh regularly just to be (and look) fit. Recommended this place to all my friends, fantastic experience, Hugh is very funny, attentive, professional, and motivating practitioner. Ask him to show you some kettlebell routines, he's one of the best people in Australia to teach you those. Also, I recommend seeing Ben for your running technique correction. Just in 5-6 sessions I saw so much improvement in my posture, gait, speed and mobility!

Fantastic experience: Have been seeing these guys for a few years and couldn’t imagine going anywhere else. Absolute legends, friendly and caring staff!

Fantastic experience: The staff at Central Physio & Performance Fitness were fantastic. I had a stubborn cycling injury where 3 other physios were unable to resolve. Seb was able to identify the issue, put me on a strength program and got me back on my bike in no time. He was fantastic to deal with, his personality and love for sport made the consults more enjoyable.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic place and people. They care about restoring correct function and techniques,and not just temporary relief through massages. Their aim is to help you recover and keep you on the right track as fast as possible, with as little sessions as possible, rather than charging for as many sessions as they can. Have already recommended to people.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with exercise physiologist Hugh Campbell for 2 years at Central Physio and have also seen Chris for physio treatment from time to time. I highly recommend the team here. They take time to understand your body and together they determine the best treatment plan for you. My posture has never been better, I am stronger and my chronic lower back, hips and shoulder issues have improved significantly. Super friendly and highly professional.

Fantastic experience: Great team - skilled, knowledgeable and very approachable regarding treatments and workout options. I have been coming here for many years as both a physio client and to work out with a personal trainer and I have no hesitation in recommending the team at Central Physio.

Fantastic experience: Quality service and people! Went to many physios because of my ongoing lower back and hamstring problems but Seb was a godsend and helped me so much! Thank you Seb and thankyou central performance

Fantastic experience: Fantastic facility. Highly knowledgable and friendly staff. First ever came for treatment on a pretty serious lower back injury. The guys rehabbed and coached me back to fitness. Empowered me with just the right level of knowledge regarding my body and it’s injury. Have since stuck with them for almost years and gladly referred friends, colleagues and team mates. Really happy with service from front of house, through to coaches and physio’s. These guys seem to genuinely care - top stuff!

Fantastic experience: I suffered with vertigo and headaches for about 10 years until I saw Chris Jackson, physiotherapist. Chris used The Watson Approach on me and after just three appointments he literally changed my life to one without pain and I once again had a clear head. It was a miracle. I've been to a lot of physiotherapists over the years and these guys are head and shoulders above the others. HIGHLY recommended, especially if you are a migraine sufferer.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend this practice for quick diagnoses, instant relief, focus on rehabilitation and most importantly building up a fitness level to prevent recurrences. All the staff are super friendly and genuinely interested in their patients.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Central Performance Physio. I've been rehabbing my ankle there after absolutely destroying it in the 2017 soccer season, and the physios are top notch... but the thing I love most about starting at Central Performance was discovering HerO, a dedicated personal training class for women that works on strength and functional fitness. I'm no longer confused by free weights in the gym and the classes are fun and really professional; any injury you have can be worked around. Thanks to Danny, Chris and the team, and to Pam for always being so warm and welcoming as soon as you walk through the door.

Fantastic experience: Great physio, awesome personal training. Really friendly and experts at what they do. The best around.

Fantastic experience: Very experienced and professional physios and exercise physiologists who work together to provide an intergrated injury recovery program based on your individual needs. Couldnt recommend them highly enough.

Fantastic experience: Friendly team that provided excellent treatment.

Fantastic experience: Thanks guys! Awesome rehab, super lovely team!

Negative experience: One of the physiotherapist spend half of the season just talking and try to book me for a next season even at the beginning. I feel even worse after I left.. don't even bother to go there, find someone the is more important fixing you then try to make another opponent..

Fantastic experience: Sports lovers themselves, so great guys to get you back on your feet

Fantastic experience: Awesome Physio with great focus on rehabilitation
