Rehab finishes in a gym, not on a table
Sixty square metres of turf, a rack, a sled, force plates and a dynamometer. Phases three and four happen here, supervised, at a lower session rate than treatment — because by then you need load and progression, not hands-on work.
Six pieces that matter
Nothing here is decorative.
60m² of turf. Enough to run, cut and land indoors, which matters in a Brisbane summer and through a wet season.
Force plates. Jump and landing asymmetry measured directly rather than eyeballed from across the room.
Handheld dynamometer. Isometric strength testing for every major muscle group, tracked visit to visit.
Rack, bar and plates. Rebuilding a leg requires real load, and a resistance band stops being useful after week three.
Sled and prowler. Loaded acceleration work that builds capacity without the impact cost of running.
Nordic bench & GHD. Hamstring eccentric loading — one of the more widely used tools for hamstring injury prevention in field sport generally.
Passing the tests is the end of rehab, not the end of risk
The twelve weeks after clearance is when most reinjuries happen, according to the general sports-medicine literature on ACL and hamstring return — not a figure about this clinic’s own patients. Roughly half our post-ACL patients take up the optional maintenance session below. No contract, and you cancel by not booking.

Retest, 3 months post-clearance
The same seven-test battery, repeated.
Program rewrite for a new season
A fresh block once pre-season starts.
