"Movement is medicine — but only when it's the right movement, at the right time."
Physiotherapy Elanora
Our Elanora physiotherapy team, led by Emma Ballantyne, helps patients manage injury, chronic pain and mobility issues affecting the muscles, joints, nerves and cardiovascular system — with a focus on getting you back to full function, not just symptom relief.
Emma has over 10 years of experience in private practice. She studied Human Movement at the University of Sydney before completing a Masters in Physiotherapy, and treats using a mix of manual therapy, dry needling, cupping and Clinical Pilates — tailored to each client's goals rather than a one-size-fits-all program.
Physiotherapy at Thrive works hand-in-hand with our chiropractic team. If you're not sure whether you need a physio or a chiropractor, you don't have to choose — our practitioners work together and will direct your care to whoever's the best fit, often combining both for faster outcomes.
We help with:
Injury rehabilitation (sport, workplace or accident-related)
Chronic pain management
Post-surgical rehab
Mobility, strength and Clinical Pilates-based programs
Lifestyle and ergonomic advice
Our approach
Emma will assess your condition, prescribe a tailored exercise plan, and — where useful — refer you into our dedicated exercise rehab studio, fully equipped for structured recovery programs under supervision.

Why Palm Beach & Elanora locals choose Thrive
Unlike a standalone Physiotherapy & Chiropractic clinic, Thrive is a multi-disciplinary hub — so if your chiropractor identifies that you'd also benefit from Physiotherapy, Podiatry, Naturopathy, Hypnotherapy or Exercise rehabilitation, that team is in the same building. No referrals, no repeating your history to a new practitioner.
“Thrive Health GC is committed to helping patients take back control of their bodies, through specific goal-orientated treatment.”
— Dr. David Riordan (Founder and Functional Chiropractor)
