“... No localized
joint abnormality, soft tissue change,
vascular or neural abnormality can exist
without ultimately affecting the whole spine,
in subtle or manifest ways ...”

Welcome.
The BrightonSpineInstitute has been in the making for over 20
years. The idea for a combined physiotherapy practice
and research facility was in the making when its
physiotherapists were undertaking post graduate
studies. Musculoskeletal clinical input into research
studies was a necessary part of both clinical practice
and meaningful research data collection. With this,
the concept of the BrightonSpineInstitute was evolving in the mind of
Charlie Kornberg, Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist.
With a background in musculoskeletal physiotherapy,
completing both his Graduate Diploma in Manipulative
Therapy and being awarded his Master of Manipulative
Physiotherapy, Charlie considered that clinical
application into research was important. This was
something that the researchers of the time were
lacking. From there, the BrightonSpineInstitute was in development.
Utilizing state of the art Cybex TEF isokinetic
testing, accurate spinal strength testing was, for the
first time in Australia, being used in the assessment
and treatment of spinal dysfunction. Evidence based
management strategies and research based methods were
to be implemented at the evolving BrightonSpineInstitute, to enable a better understanding
of spinal pain and its rehabilitation.
In 2004, the BrightonSpineInstitute was established, and in
conjunction with the Brighton Spinal Group allowed for
an integrated approach to the assessment and treatment
of muscle and joint pain.

In 2004, BrightonSpineInstitute and the
Brighton Spinal and Sports
Medicine Clinic came
together to form an alliance
of both expertise and an
ongoing commitment to
medical education, research
and professional
development. It was
recognized that the most
effective treatment of
spinal and joint conditions
required a detailed
assessment and co-ordinated
management plan.

This alliance in
now the Brighton Spine
and Sports Clinic. It
provides the best
multidisciplinary care and
management of spinal pain
and associated
musculoskeletal conditions.

and Sports Clinic can be
