Over the past three years, I've struggled with the ongoing physical and mental effects of surgeries & cancer treatment, including neuropathy, falls & osteoporosis.
With the support and expertise of the team at PB Physio, there has been a significant improvement in both my strength and, most importantly, my confidence. For the first time in a long time, I feel like I'm moving in the right direction. I'm incredibly grateful to Claudia, Pei and Carl for their expertise, kindness and unwavering support. If you're looking for physiotherapists who are knowledgeable, compassionate and truly committed to helping you achieve your goals, I wholeheartedly recommend PB Physio Marrickville.

I’m an athlete and embodied performance practitioner from California, and I initially started working with PB Physio for knee pain.
I had recently started playing volleyball again after many years, and when I couldn’t figure out how to resolve the pain on my own, I knew it was time to reach out to another professional.
We started with a 12-session package, and about halfway through, my knee pain began significantly improving. Because of that progress, we were also able to address other issues, including shoulder pain. During this time, I also sprained my ankle, and the exercises they gave me helped me rehab it within about 6 weeks. I continued for a few more sessions afterward to dive deeper into the shoulder issue as well.
I worked with several physios on their team, including the owner, Pei. One thing I really appreciated was that each physio specializes in different sports, which was helpful since I participate in multiple sports myself.
I worked with Harrison, Martin, and primarily Claudia. Claudia was especially positive, patient, and detail-oriented throughout the process. She even offered support outside of our sessions whenever I needed an extra set of eyes on my lifts.
I can confidently say that I no longer deal with knee pain, and if it ever does flare up again, I now have the knowledge and tools to manage it myself.

PB Physio has helped me so much. Pei is very knowledgeable, she quickly identified the issue, and put together a clear plan with mobility exercises for me to start doing right away. I feel much more confident with my training now.
The monthly check-ins have also been really helpful, and I’ve even hit some PBs since working with her. Money well spent — highly recommend.
Thank you Pei and PB Physio.

I’ve been coming to see the team at PB Physio for a little over a month and can say I’ve been blown away by the level of care and attention shown to me, particularly by Claudia and Pei.
Through working with Claudia, I’ve been able to squat a decent amount of weight pain free, which I haven’t been able to do at all for over decade. I honestly never believed I’d be able to do this again. I’m also now deadlifting again, which has been incredible and very satisfying.
A huge thank you to both Claudia and Pei for all your help with my pain management, I’m so impressed and will be singing your praises to anyone in need of physio, forever!

The team at PB Physio Marrickville are fantastic.
After an initial assessment of my back issues by Pei and Claudia, I had a custom plan drawn out and managed by Claudia. She was able to alleviate my pain and provide me insights and exercises on how manage my issues moving forward (should they flare up).
If I don’t ever have to see them again that’d be amazing! : ) but if I do, I wouldn’t mind at all : )
A great team to work with and assist with injuries and recovery. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Pei’s professionalism and attention to detail cannot be overstated. She is efficient, thorough, and her exercise knowledge is second to none. As a powerlifter myself, her extensive background in powerlifting has been incredibly valuable. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my rehab and highly recommend Pei to anyone serious about their training.

I had an excellent experience with PB Physio Marrickville, especially with Pei. Even though I’m based in Hong Kong, Pei provided incredibly effective online consultations for my disc problems. She carefully assessed my condition, explained everything clearly, and guided me through a series of rehab exercises that made a real difference. Pei is very knowledgeable, patient, and dedicated — I really appreciate her support and expertise. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a skilled and caring physiotherapist

From the moment Martin assessed my injury, I knew I was in good hands. He takes the time to clearly explain the treatment process and walks you through every session with patience and confidence. I’ve felt comfortable, supported, and truly reassured that his expertise will help me move and feel better every week. Highly recommend PB PHYSIO and Martin for anyone needing quality care.

I initially wanted to work with a woman, however there was no one available within the 24 hours I needed to see someone, and so I met with Harrison, and he was absolutely amazing. From the initial consult, during which he was able to confidently diagnose me, to the last appointment I had with him, every single session I had made me feel completely comfortable, and safe and physically better. The exercises he prescribed have been beneficial and made an astounding difference to the issues I've had leading to seeing him. Not only was his expertise demonstrable, but his personal conduct was personable and kind. What is usually a burden became something I enjoyed and looked forward to.
I will definitely return in the future, when needed to see Harrison. Thank you.

I genuinely look forward to my physio appointments.
Even with all my progression I still enjoy seeing Harrison and the team just to learn, improve and have a laugh.

The team at PB Physio are amazing, I started here with Julia for my post (third) birth pelvic floor rehab and have the year been seeing victor for a shoulder and now back injury. They are super focussed on your goals and getting you back into your gym / sport.

Pei and her team really set the bar for how physio treatment should be. From the get go, a well explained timeline for recovery was provided for me and Pei skilfully pieced together the complex workings of my injuries and worked on improving me holistically to achieve these goals. Her understanding of biomechanics and movement is unrivalled which is why I would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone.

I've been working with Pei and Martin, and I couldn’t be more grateful.
Pei guided me through specific exercises that helped me strengthen the muscles responsible for mobility and stability in my upper back and neck — exactly where I used to experience pain due to a disc herniation.
Both Pei and Martin helped me correct my technique in key lifts like the squat, bench press, and deadlift. Thanks to their knowledge and support, I’ve made real progress — and most importantly, I’m completely pain-free, even though doctors had previously recommended surgery.

I’ve been seeing Pei for back issues that were holding me back from strength training, and she was amazing. She figured out what was going on straight away and set me up with a program that had me feeling better really quickly. With her help (and Harrison’s too!), I’m now back to lifting heavy and feeling great. They have been super supportive and I couldn’t recommend them enough!

Several months ago, I hurt my back bad enough that I struggled with walking, bending over, sitting, and performing the basic tasks of daily life. After almost a month of this, I reached out to Pei at PB Physio to see if she could assess me remotely and help me recover. I live in the United States, and I was concerned that seeing someone remotely would make it hard for her to help me out. This concern was completely unfounded. I've had unbelievable success working with Pei, to the point that, in the months since I started seeing her, I've added 12.5 kilos to my squat PR. She not only diagnosed my problems, but also helped me with my technique in a way that unlocked so much power I hadn't had access to before.
If you have any doubts that remote treatment can be effective, put them to rest. The folks at PB Physio are incredible. I will absolutely be seeing them for every tweak and discomfort I incur from lifting!

Pei and her team are amazing! She’s really helped me with my backpain and bulge disc issue. Been to other physios in the past but nothing compares to PB Physio. They have given me a rehab plan to fix my issues, walked me through optimal set-ups for squats, bench and deads for my body shape.

I did 4 weeks of online physio with Pei and Martin to rehab a lower back injury. At the time I started I was already 6 weeks into my injury and still unable to squat or deadlift more than 70kg without pain.
Within just a couple of weeks with Pei I was already back to lifting more than my usual squat loads and my deadlifts very close to normal loads (and during a powerlifting peak block).
The difference I’ve noticed compared to other physiotherapists I’ve seen in the past, Pei actually teaches you how to prevent reoccurring injuries by working on proper technique, and strengthening problem areas instead of JUST prescribing relief/ release exercises.
Now I’ve got a solid warmup/ prehab routine for each lift, and accessories to continue strengthening my technique.
Lastly I’d like to add that if you’re not sure about online physio - this is much easier than I expected. You do some sessions at home and some at the gym with minimal equipment for the home sessions.

The service at PB has been nothing short of exceptional and the capability in the team is amazing. I had extremely limited mobility stemming from tightness around a disc bulge, which had been severely impacting my deadlifts and squats for about 3 years. Pei is so expertly versed in powerlifting related injuries and movement patterns and she was able to identify the root cause within the first consultation. Following a methodical rehab program across 6 weeks where I had the opportunity to get treated by Martin, Harrison and Victor as well as Pei, I have been able to deadlift without issue after 3 years. The communication between them to make sure my progress was linear and staged as well as the expert knowledge to begin improving the way I move was top class.
Beyond exceptional.

The team at PB physio are so welcoming! From the moment you walk into, till you leave. I came in as a very novice lifter, exploring powerlifting. But I needed some guidance on proper technique. Pei and Victor have really helped me explore different ways to approach all my lifts. As well as helping treat some minor injuries related to both the gym and also my line of work in dental. They are all incredible here!

After months of struggling with injuries that held me back from training PB Physio has been a game changer. As an exercise health professional myself with years of gym and strength training experience, I needed a rehab approach that understood the demands of high-level training and wasn't just basic exercise protocols. Pei and her team have been absolutely unreal addressing the cause of my issues and helping me rebuild strength, mobility, and confidence. I’m finally back to consistent, pain-free training. Highly recommend them to any athlete with their recovery.

I had trouble finding a physiotherapist that supports fully my bodybuilding journey. She has improved my range of motion, walking tolerance and lifting strength in not more than 8 sessions.With the initial 2 sessions, i have already had 50 percent less pain. Pei is the one for you if you want to return to sports to compete well and she knows biomechanics way more than alot of therapists i saw in Sydney.
What sets her apart is her observation skills and her unique approach to exercise training.
My best form is yet to come as i trust Pei is still teaching me the best technique as a Master athlete.

The team at PB physio were able to effectively treat and manage my injury online. I was back to training quickly, and Pei was able to make tweaks to my form to optimise my technique and prevent further injury. She kept in contact with my coach to ensure they were both on the same track. I hit PBs 7 months post glute tear, so a great recovery!

I had my doubts on how these remote sessions would work, if it even will help. But, those fears were gone day 1. I’ve been working with Pei for some few sessions now and it’s been amazing. She’s able to pinpoint where my pain was, then give me stretches to help alleviate the tension. I’ve been able to bench pain free for the first time in a long time.
I will say you will only see results if you put in the work. Pei has been called a magician but that’s if you lock in and do the work to fix yourself. I look forward to working with the team going forward.

I am so greatful and feel so lucky to have been able to have Pei as a physio! She is absolutely amazing!! She diagnosed what was wrong with my back in the first 5 minutes of our initial session, and was so helpful in getting me back to squatting and deadlifting after a really bad back injury. I honestly wasn't sure if I'd be able to squat or deadlift again due to the immense pain I felt, but Pei got me lifting again in less than 5 weeks, she is the BEST!!
