Searching; physio near me, physio Marion or physiotherapy in Marion?

Our team of physio's service patients from all over Adelaide, though most come from nearby suburbs such as Mitchell Park, Oaklands Park and Sturt.

Whether you need help with an existing injury, rehabilitation, soft tissue therapy or joint manipulations, we consider ourselves the best physios and physiotherapy clinic in Marion.

Physio Marion is (from our research) one of the most common searches our patient's use to find us, followed by Physiotherapist Marion and interestingly, Physiotherapy Marion. Patients often search us by suburb first, however, and as a result, some other typical searches include Marion Physio, Marion Physiotherapist and or Marion Physiotherapy. Though not a direct variation to the two above, a broader approach is often taken with a search like; physio near me, or if a practice is more intended then physiotherapy near me is quite often the search. We have found that depending on the demographics the use of the word 'in' features quite heavily, and so we'll often see Physio in Marion, Physiotherapist in Marion and Physiotherapy in Marion as common phrases. In the end, we do our best to be as visible and accessible for our patients in and around our local area as possible.

History of Marion

The area was founded in 1838 as a rural village by British-Malayan naval and army officer William and B.T. Finniss, the first Premier of South Australia.

As Marion was found to have rich soil, vegetable, stone fruits, almonds and grapes were produced in the area. Richard Hamilton established the first vineyard in the area, with his family continuing their winemaking tradition to this day.

In the late 19th century, Marion became a centre to various industries that included mining and brick making. It was in the late 1950s when the population of the suburb increased.
