Thihan Chandramohan, physiotherapist
25 years a physio. 15+ in elite sport.
I am Thihan. I have worked with Cricket Australia, Cricket Victoria, the Melbourne Stars and Renegades, and international teams. Bridge Road Physiotherapy is where I bring that same standard of care to club cricketers, gym-goers, runners and anyone who wants to keep moving.

You see me at every appointment, from the first assessment to the last stage of rehab. No handovers, and no repeating your story to someone new.
My role is to work out what is limiting you, explain it in plain language and help you decide what to do next. Treatment might include hands-on care, exercise, changes to training or work, and a gradual return to the activity you miss. Most often, it is a sensible mix of those things.
More about Thihan →Selected professional experience
The same assessment and return-to-play standards used with these teams, applied to club cricketers, gym-goers and runners.

How it works
What happens at your first appointment
01
Understand the problem
We discuss what happened, what affects it and what you need to return to. I assess the movement, strength and physical demands involved.
02
Make sense of it
I explain what the findings mean, where there is uncertainty and what I think should happen next.
03
Build the plan
Treatment starts on the day. You leave with a plan and your exercises, then we re-test and progress it as your symptoms, capacity and goals change.
