Casting & Splinting

At Cronulla Point Physio, John Daher is trained in specialised casting and splinting techniques to safely immobilise injuries and support optimal healing. Casting is used to stabilise fractures and maintain proper alignment during recovery, while splinting provides supportive protection when a full cast is not required.

We work closely with your GP or orthopaedic specialist to ensure your immobilisation, monitoring, and early management align with medical recommendations for the best possible outcome.
 

Waterproof & Fibreglass Casting

We offer a full range of casting options, including standard fibreglass casts, which are lightweight, durable, and more comfortable than traditional plaster.
 

We also provide waterproof casting systems such as AquaCast, allowing you to shower, bathe, and in many cases swim while maintaining safe immobilisation. All casts are applied on-site and carefully moulded to your specialist’s instructions. We can also assist with follow-up imaging and guidance on expected cast duration where required.

 

Walker Boots for Foot & Ankle Injuries

For suitable injuries, we provide both short and long walker boots:

​

Short walker boots are ideal for:

• Metatarsal fractures

• Forefoot and midfoot injuries

• Bunion procedures

• Soft tissue injuries and severe ankle sprains

​

Long walker boots are used for:

• Stable fractures of the foot, ankle, or lower leg

• Post-operative protection and recovery
   

All boots feature a semi-rigid shell, adjustable compression, and a rocker-bottom sole to support a more natural walking pattern while protecting the injury.

Rehabilitation After Fracture

Once your specialist confirms it is safe to begin movement, your care transitions into a personalised rehabilitation program.

​

Using our in-house gym, we guide you through progressive exercises to restore strength, mobility, balance, and functional movement. Our goal is to ensure a smooth and confident return to work, sport, and daily activities.
 

We regularly treat patients with broken wrists, ankles, and other fractures across Cronulla and surrounding areas.
 

Private health insurance rebates may be available depending on your level of cover.
