Aerial and Circus Physio: Supporting Your Art

At Body & Movement Collective, we understand the physical demands that aerial and circus arts place on your body. Our physiotherapy services, both in-person and online, are specifically tailored for aerialists, offering specialised care that addresses the unique challenges of your art. Whether you’re practicing on silks, lyra, straps, hammock, or another discipline, our experienced physiotherapists are here to help you build strength, flexibility, and resilience to stay injury-free.

Why Aerialists Need Specialised Physiotherapy

Aerial and circus arts require incredible strength, control, and mobility, which can sometimes lead to overuse injuries, acute strains, or imbalances. At Body & Movement Collective, our team of physiotherapists has extensive knowledge in circus medicine, with many of us being aerialists or trained in circus arts ourselves. We offer a personalised approach to ensure your treatment is perfectly aligned with the unique demands of aerial and circus movements—available both in-person and online.

Common Injuries and Conditions We Treat

Our physiotherapists have vast experience treating a wide range of injuries common to aerialists and circus artists, including but not limited to:

  • Shoulder pain and instability

  • Wrist and elbow pain

  • Hip and lower back pain

  • Neck pain and tension

  • Hamstring and adductor strains

  • Overuse injuries

  • Flexibility-related injuries

  • Hypermobility related pain and issues

We understand that injuries and pain don’t just impact your training but also affect your ability to perform, teach, or simply enjoy your art. Whether you’re seeing us in person or booking a virtual session, we’re here to help you recover fully and get back to the air stronger than ever.

Aerial and circus arts are an incredible journey of strength and artistry, but they place significant demands on your body. Make sure you're giving it the care it deserves!

Tailored Treatment Plans for Aerialists and Circus Artists

Every treatment plan we develop is as unique as your movement style. Our physiotherapists focus on detailed assessments to understand the root causes of your pain or discomfort. We then create a personalised rehabilitation plan that helps you not only recover but also prevent future injuries. Whether you need manual therapy, targeted exercises, or a comprehensive strength and conditioning program, we’ve got you covered with both in-person and online options.

Your Supportive, Judgement-Free Space

At Body & Movement Collective, we pride ourselves on offering a supportive and judgement-free environment for aerialists and circus artists of all levels (both in-person and online). Whether you're an amateur, performer, or instructor, we’re dedicated to helping you reach your potential without sacrificing your health or well-being.

We are also fully registered, and private health insurance rebates are available for online and in-person sessions.
