The Physio

Fit As A Physio is a conveniently located sports physiotherapy and massage practice in Mosman, on Sydney's Lower North Shore. (Here's a map). Fit As A Physio is owned and operated by Sports and Exercise Physiotherapist, Fergus Tilt. 

​
Since opening in 2003, I have helped thousands of clients recover from injury and get back to what they love doing without pain. I have all types of clients, from sporting stars to weekend warriors, from tradies to office workers, children, mums and dads.
Physio Mosman

​I understand...
  • The frustration of an injury that won't go away. 
  • The worry of not knowing if you are doing the right thing or possibly making it worse.
  • The irritation of how pain affects you day to day. It's distracting. It makes you cranky. You can't be your best at work, or in the gym, or with your family.

​
​I can help you with a 
simple explanation of what the problem is...
  • What is it?
  • Is it serious?
  • Why have you got it?
  • Is it something you need to rest, or push through?
  • Can you keep training?
  • How long will it take to get better?
  • Have you done any permanent damage?
  • Are you doing something that's making it worse?

​
​​I can give you a management plan that includes practical solutions that are actually achievable so you can take control of your injury today...
  • What are you allowed to do?
  • What do you need to avoid?
  • What exercises will help? (And not an impractically long list of exercises, but what is the one most effective thing?)
  • What can you do to prevent this happening again?

I can help you overcome your injury so you can get back to your best. Work. Train. Love. Happy.

Fergus Tilt
I'm originally from Launceston, Tasmania. I came to Sydney in 1994 to study a Bachelor of Applied Science (Physiotherapy) at The University of Sydney. After graduating I worked for three years at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, which was a great learning opportunity, rotating through all the different areas that physios work in, and it's where I met my wife who was a nurse on one of the wards.  

In 2001 I started at Mosman Private Hospital as the contracted physiotherapist & visited there daily until 2010.  

In 2003 I opened a boutique physiotherapy practice in Mosman, Fit As A Physio. 

Pursuing a personal and professional love of sport, I completed a Graduate Certificate in Sports Physiotherapy in 2012, and a Master of Sports Physiotherapy at La Trobe University in 2013. As part of the course work I was at the Sydney Swans, which was a great opportunity to work with elite sport and get to know the players, and then the Australian Rugby Union Academy, working with the Australian Sevens & Australian Under 20's rugby players.

I've been the physio for Mosman Rugby Club  since 2003, looking after six grade teams and an U-21 Colts team who compete in Division One of the NSW Suburban Rugby competition.

As an adjunct to the physiotherapy clinical work, my wife and I developed FIT-TAPE, a type of Kinesiology Tape, that is available online at fit-tape.com.au 

I love professional development and staying on top of the latest evidenced-based practise. I get a bit too excited talking about "load" and "tendons" and other physio-nerd stuff. But, I wouldn't call myself a physio's physio. I think a lot of physios over-complicate their approach and confuse their patients. It's important to me that you understand what I'm talking about. Some physios will give you twenty exercises to do at home. I'll simplify things to concentrate on the most important one or two. Bang for your buck.
