Physiotherapy today is no longer just about fixing injuries. It is becoming a deeply personalised, lifestyle driven form of care that looks at the whole human experience of pain, movement, and wellbeing. As chronic conditions, desk bound habits, and long term stress continue to rise globally, the industry is shifting from short term symptom management to root cause healing. Patients now seek practitioners who listen, investigate, and guide them back to sustainable health. This evolution has created space for innovative clinics that blend science with sensitivity. One such brand is BalanceCore Physiotherapy and Wellness, founded by Michael Yan in October 2013, built on the belief that true recovery begins with understanding the individual, not just the injury.
Where Eastern Philosophy Meets Western Precision.
Drawing on over 26 years of clinical expertise across public and private hospitals, Michael Yan recognised a significant limitation in standard physiotherapy. While effective for acute injuries, these protocols often failed to provide lasting relief for patients suffering from chronic pain, recurrent discomfort, or complex, multi-issue health conditions. These individuals frequently experienced confusion, frustration, and emotional exhaustion after exhausting conventional treatments without achieving genuine improvement.
This critical observation served as the catalyst for Michael to develop the now-trademarked BalanceCore Method.
The BalanceCore Method is a deeply integrated approach that merges the holistic perspective of Eastern philosophies on bodily harmony with the exactness of Western medical science. Moving beyond isolated focus on structures or movements, BalanceCore assesses the entire system to pinpoint the true, underlying root cause of pain and dysfunction. This comprehensive perspective ensures precise diagnosis, profound understanding, and the delivery of treatments that are sustainable for long-term recovery.
Treating Complexity With Clarity
BalanceCore specialises in complex and chronic conditions that last beyond three months, including fibromyalgia, migraines, recurring body pain, post injury recovery, and joint degeneration. For patients who were told to simply cope with their condition, BalanceCore offers something different: a pathway to empowerment. Instead of restricting life, their approach helps clients build habits and movement patterns that support freedom and confidence.
Their work with scoliosis and postural issues goes beyond surface alignment. The team studies the tension patterns in muscles and fascia that hold the body in unhealthy positions. Through manual therapy and targeted exercises, they rebalance these tensions and help clients form new movement habits. This results in alignment changes that are progressive, functional, and lasting.
From Pilates To Foot Health.
BalanceCore offers a wide range of services designed to meet different life stages and activity levels. These include Women’s Health Physiotherapy for pre and post pregnancy recovery, Sports And Injury Rehabilitation, Clinical Pilates, and Foot Care Physiotherapy. Every service is personalised and guided by professional assessment rather than generic routines.
Clinical Pilates is delivered in partnership with Altum Pilates and integrates seamlessly into each client’s rehabilitation plan. Foot Care Physiotherapy includes gait analysis, pressure mapping, 3D scanning, and custom orthotics. Together, these services support strength, mobility, balance, and long term function. BalanceCore is dedicated to more than just treating pain; their mission is to empower people with the knowledge to use their bodies more effectively for long-term function. By supporting strength, mobility, and balance, they help clients achieve lasting wellness.
