Throwing a discus involves an incredibly complex sequence of movements. The throw consists of turning the body through one and a half circles and requires a high level of technical skill. The aim is to generate the highest possible force and transfer this force optimally through each phase to the final discus release. Due to…

Over the summer months here in Melbourne, we’ve noticed an increasing number of patients complaining of running-induced knee pain. Some entered fun-run races, triathlons, trail running events or even the Coast to Coast race in New Zealand (a must do for those passionate enough to suffer amongst some of the most beautiful backdrops in the…

A breath of fresh air in allied health and physical fitness. Pep and his team look beyond the symptoms and locate the root cause through careful analysis of body posture and muscle imbalance. They listen, they watch you move, they diagnose and most importantly they correct. This is all done with humility and a genuine desire to see you move more efficiently and remain pain free. Cannot recommend Pep and his team highly enough - my go to team whenever my body needs a re-set. Thanks for keeping me moving team.read more

After 8 years of mediocre treatment, my housemate said to go to Kinematics and I've been pain free for 6 months. Pep, Amy and the crew are without a doubt changing the mobility game. These guys are as committed to designing the unique treatment you need as they are to getting you results you can be proud of. Also, they make you feel at home and part of the Kinematics family as soon as you walk into their amazing facilities.read more

I was the kid who loved her sports but was always injured. I’m now the adult who still loves being active but has a extensive history of breaking down with injuries that have become more chronic in nature. Pep is the first clinician who has not only taken the time, but who has had the expertise to review my breakdowns and injuries from a complete biomechanical perspective. Peps & the Kinematics team don’t just treat an area that is injured, they identify and treat other structural imbalances that contribute to the injury (or in my case injuries). The intervention isn’t always fun & there’s work to be done outside of treatment sessions, but if you commit to the process & work with Kinematics the results can be amazing. My posture is more balanced. I move more comfortably. I experience less pain. I’m more relaxed when I’m running, swimming & even walking. I understand my body better. I’ve been taught me how to self manage zones that trigger most of my breakdowns. But most importantly I can see potential for ongoing activity without fear of breakdown & that brings me an amazing amount of joy. Can’t recommend the team at Kinematics highly enough and am excited to have been able to watch their business grow during the time I’ve worked with them. Much respect. Thanks guys.read more

The Kinematics team have been great in keeping me on the rugby field. They have helped prolong my retirement from a sport l cant seem to let go of with exceptional treatment. A compassionate, caring kind team they are like family. Great new facility also so refreshing and peaceful when you enter. Would highly recommend.read more

Pep and his team are amazing. I have seen many therapists in the past for my shoulder problems and all tell you that the service will eventually become less frequent when in fact it increases in frequency. I see Pep less and less these days and it’s hard as he has become a great friend to me and has really addressed my problems. My body has NEVER felt better. For that I thank him and his team. I see pep every now and then for a ‘tune up’ but well worth the pain he puts me through. Thanks and keep up the work Kinematics. If I could give 100 stars I would. Well worth it.read more

The best! I have been seeing Pep at Kinematics Richmond on a semi-regular basis for the past two years across a developing amateur marathon running career. His knowledge, expertise and incredible ability to instantly yet accurately diagnose and treat what has been a variety of structural and muscular issues for me has been paramount to my three international marathon campaigns and general ability to continue to run pain and injury free. I couldn’t trust anyone more nor have complete faith in his practise and would highly recommend Kinematics as a first stop for anyone not seeing results or getting answers with ongoing or recurrent injuries or their current treatment practise. The new facilities are state of the art and it’s a very welcoming environment to be in.read more
