Optimus Health Group: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Friendly, knowledgeable coaches who can help you with any lift. Plenty of racks so you're never waiting to do your sets. Perfect!
Thanks for the review Warwick! =)
Fantastic experience: Carlos was excellent. I was most impressed by his approach: I had never been to a physio before, but Carlos made me feel comfortable and asked lots of questions which made me feel like my concerns were being assessed, considered, and understood thoroughly before any physical inspection or treatment was attempted. He was conversational and professional and I will definitely be recommending him and this practice to others looking for a physio.
Thanks for the review Brendan. We are so happy you had a great experience for your first time using a physio =)
Fantastic experience: I just want to say that we are extremely happy with our experience so far. I can't thank Carlos enough for helping my daughter get back on the court after a bad shin splints injury. We are now working with Nathan and team to get her back in shape and so far we are extremely happy with all the attention, knowledge and support. If you want the best then there's no other place to go.
Hi Leonardo, thank you so much for your feedback. I remember when you called to book in late last year. I am so pleased that my team were able to help your daughter. Fingers crossed she has an amazing season in 2024!
Fantastic experience: This is a great gym where I feel welcome and can push myself to get stronger and fitter. All the staff are great and help me with everything I need!
Fantastic experience: Professional, non- pretentious trainers that really know their craft and will get the best out of your body while working with any limitations you may have. My program is tailored individually to my goals and working on improving areas that have been a challenge for my in the past. Even after moving out of the area I still come back here twice a week. A bonus is having physiotherapy on site if you do need at any point. Couldn’t recommend more highly ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks for the review Necole
Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend the Optimus gym in Richmond and their staff enough. I’ve been working out there over a year now and have been having PT sessions with Carlos. He is a physio as well as a PT which means the programmes he designs for me and support he provides is really tailored to my individual circumstances and injuries. My strength and health over the last year has improved considerably. The gym space is well equipped and there is always someone on hand to support you. It feels like a great community of people which makes me feel comfortable. You can even take your dog!
Thank you for the review Matt. We love having you attend our facility and it has been a pleasure seeing you gain confidence in the gym!
Fantastic experience: Jono is amazing! Thank you so much!
Thanks Carrie! We think he is amazing as well
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Jason and the Optimus Team enough. I met jason through my rugby team and he’s been able to help me out with so many niggles and injuries. I always know I’m in good hands when I go to see Jason
Thanks for the review Rory. Glad to hear that Jason and the team have been taking such good care of you. Bring on the '23 rugby season!
Fantastic experience: I attended the clinic yesterday to see Rosh, she made me feel super comfortable and helped my back pain. Even sent me a message today to check in, if that’s not great service & care, I don’t know what is. Thank you Rosh your a absolute gem!
Thanks for the review Brittany! Glad to hear that you had a great experience with Rosh. We think she is amazing as well =)
Fantastic experience: Great practice - expert team and practical advice. Especially good with sports injuries
Hi Kate, thanks so much for the feedback! We really love looking after you and your family =)

Fantastic experience: Great service and expertise!!
Fantastic experience: Had one session with Eran Gerstein today- Put me in a totally Euphoric State of Bliss- He’s really insightful knows his stuff and he’s unbiased- always open to new ideas. Thanks Once again Eran
Fantastic experience: Thanks KP. Feeling amazing already! Just saw KP 4 hrs ago and my pain has decreased by 70%, I have movement back and can enjoy my night. Great guy, took full history, very professional.
Fantastic experience: I was seen by KP over a period of weeks for a dodgy knee, he was very friendly and personable and has helped me greatly in gaining my strength back, thanks so much !
Fantastic experience: Great and friendly staff. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone needing aid. Was treated by Cameron Steptoe.
Fantastic experience: The best in the business! So friendly, like you're going to your families place. Jake is the best physio! Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Messed up my back about a week ago doing a workout. My friend suggested Cierra File-Murby through Optimus Health Group, but the only problem was she's in Australia and I'm in Canada. That wasn't a problem for her. We set up a visual call through the internet and she got me to do different motions and positions while online. We talked about how the situation happened and any prior back conditions. Cierra gave me many exercises to do, to help regain strength in my back, as well as any tips to help heal faster. Since then Cierra has set me up through an application called PhysiApp where they demonstrate the exercises. She has also updated my daily exercises and checked in on me. What a kind, beautiful person she is. Very thankful for her time and helping me overcome this pain. I'd Recommended Cierra as she really knows her stuff!
Fantastic experience: I've been working from home for the last two weeks at my home office since the virus situation worsened and hurt my back not sitting properly. Was kinda sceptical booking an online session but it was amazing and I feel a thousand times better!
Fantastic experience: I just did a Telehealth consultation with KP. Being honest I was a complete sceptic but I got so much value for money from the appointment. I wasn't sure whether I should go to the doctor or not but this has been amazing. He assessed and diagnosed my sprain and now I have a clear plan moving forward. Even better, I don't have to wait 2 weeks to see him as I can do it from my own office in Wagga!!
Fantastic experience: What a place! After seeing numerous people over about 14months on my knee, i was finally in the right place. With their help it is not only better but stronger. Thank you for all your help and support! Shout out to Cierra for going above and beyond to help me!
Fantastic experience: I cannot fault any part of the experience at Optimus. The receptionists are super friendly, the facilities are all new and and clean, and the physio staff are great. Cam in particular has got me back to touch footie and gymnastics after various injuries.
Fantastic experience: Cam is super helpful, extremly knowledgeable, and knows how to get me back on my feet in no time.
Fantastic experience: Openly recommend the team at Optimus! Cannot stress enough how helpful they are. I have been working with cam in particular for years now, will not and cannot go anywhere else when the service and attention to detail is so bloody amazing. 5 of the big ones for these guys!
Fantastic experience: I saw a friendly and very knowledgeable physio, its a great facility with a full rehab gym across the road, I would highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Great service and great people, helped me achieve my ACL rehab goals!
Fantastic experience: I have been coming to see the team at Optimus Health since 2016 when I did my ACL. Hands down these guys are the best physio's I have ever seen. I cannot recommend them enough. They are the best at what they do, the ACL program is amazing. Kath, Cam, Bryan, Dawn and Prue will make sure that you get back to whatever goals you are trying to get to! Another benefit is they have the most amazing cute puppy called Whiskey!!!! Whiskey is my fav!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Optimus for a few years and have always found the staff incredibly friendly and attentive. The Pilates classes are also fantastic.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic remedial massage from Cierra. Would highly recommend if you’re sore from training in the gym or playing sport!
Fantastic experience: I tore my ACL and broke my wrist and the Optimus Health Group has supported my recovery from the moment my injury occurred to my rehabilitation 6 months later. KP especially has been great in keeping my rehab on track and ensuring that I will be back playing footy soon.
Fantastic experience: Cant recommend this place enough! The Team has gone above and beyond in my post ACL reconstruction rehab with the physio, lower limb rehab classes and remedial massage! The have helped me understand my injury to enhance my recovery, challenge me and helped gain my confidence and strength back. Most of all optimus provides a welcoming, fun and challenging environment to train, which I absolutely love! Keep up the great work!!
Fantastic experience: Prue, Nikki and ciera were all amazing! I would recommend this physio every day of the week
Fantastic experience: I suffer with intense back pain because of some disk issues in my lower spine. Optimus’s remedial massage therapist, Nikki, is fabulous. She’s able to relax the muscles and get me moving without pain. I’ve been to many massage clinics and Optimus is by far my favourite. I love the added availability of the Physios in the same space for continuity of care.
Fantastic experience: I injured my lower back at work and was expecting the worse - like a disc issue or something but it wasn't. Prue was absolutely amazing and the exercises she got me to do did the trick, and I continue to use those same exercises now whenever I start to feel soreness coming on in my lower back and I also use them as a warm up routine in the gym. Highly recommend Optimus Health Group and their team for their expertise, friendliness, and excellent service.
Fantastic experience: I ruptured my ACL playing netball and went and saw Prue, I had no idea on how many things I could do pre surgery to help my recovery. Prue took the time to explain the entire rehab process with me, including showing me at what point in time I should be doing specific exercises, this gave me the motivation to smash my rehab as I could see the light at the end of the tunnel. I would highly recommend the team at Optimus Health Group.
Fantastic experience: Had an injury for 3 months and had been to a handful of physios who all failed to get me back to sport. I then came to Optimus. They were the 1st to diagnose the correct injury and got me back to sport promptly. I couldn't recommend Optimus highly enough!
Fantastic experience: I can highly recommend the remedial massage! Thank you Nikki for an amazing treatment and making me feel so welcome!
Fantastic experience: Miracle workers, all of them! Prue, Cam and Dom have been great at fixing me up. Have been visiting for sports injury/recovery program, physio and pilates over a couple of years. All have been focused on long term fitness and healthy outcomes. Very friendly and helpful, recommend to all.
Fantastic experience: Bryan, Jake and Cam have been fantastic. Over the course of 18 months, the team at Optimus Health have guided me through a full ACL rehab. Their care, attention to detail and the use of metrics to track improvement are particularly impressive and allows you to focus on areas most in need of work. The Richmond clincic also has the benefit of a rehab gym and group rehab classes, so you can start your road to recovery sooner. Overall, a highly effective, positive and professional outfit. Thanks guys!
Fantastic experience: After feeling a bit disenchanted with physios I decided to try Optimus Health out as a final resort for my shoulder injury. Not only did Cam give me an accurate diagnosis of my issue his explanation of why I was having ongoing issues finally made everything click and made me motivated to do my rehab as I could see a light at the end of the tunnel! I highly recommend not only Cam but all the therapists at Optimus Health, not only because they fixed an ongoing issue of mine but also because of their approach to patient care. They take the time to educate and explain why things are happening. Do yourself a favour and go see them if you're not feeling 100%!
Fantastic experience: My overall experience with Optimus Health was pleasant due to the friendly staff, their proximity to public transport, and the excellent facilities they provided. My own going treatment with Dominic was crucial in my recovery from lower back pain, and I am glad for choosing them!
Fantastic experience: Great staff and value for money. Would definitely recommend.
Fantastic experience: Easy to book an appointment and lovely staff.
Fantastic experience: For any runners or competitive athletes I would highly recommend Jake for remedial massages and strength training
Fantastic experience: Thanks Jake for your expert care, great massages and elite fitness training - feeling really prepared for the Berlin marathon ☺️
Fantastic experience: Great services, great treatment, and great people. Couldn't speak more highly of the staff who are willing to go above and beyond what is required. I'm snowboard for Aus at Olympic level and have used different services and multiple physiotherapists from Optimus. They've made a huge difference to me and helped me get back on snow asap after various injuries and surgeries. They're professionals in the what they do and they way they go about it. Any time my close friends or family have an injury, this is who I recommend.
Fantastic experience: These guys have been looking after me for a couple years now. I'm a competitive bodybuilder and power-lifter and they have seen me through some of the worst injuries of my career. particularly my long term patellar tendonitis which has been with me for years, but thanks to Dawn I am now back to pain free training. I cannot recommend the team more for everything they have helped me through, if you are a serious athlete this is the place to be.
Great to hear Adam, thanks for the kind words!
