Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession focused on restoring movement and function when someone is affected by injury, illness, or disability. It uses evidence-based techniques like manual therapy, exercise, education, and advice to aid recovery and prevent future issues. Whether you're managing chronic pain, recovering from surgery, or improving mobility, physiotherapy can support your goals with a personalised treatment plan.

No referral is necessary to book an appointment with a physiotherapist. You can contact us directly to schedule a session. However, if you’re planning to claim through private health insurance or certain insurance schemes, your provider may require a referral—please check with them beforehand.

Your first visit will include a thorough assessment where we discuss your medical history, symptoms, and lifestyle factors. This is followed by a physical examination to identify the cause of your issue. Based on our findings, we’ll create a tailored treatment plan. Please wear comfortable clothing that allows easy movement and access to the area of concern. Bring any relevant medical reports, scans, or referrals (if available). Arrive a few minutes early to fill out any required paperwork, especially for your first visit.

The number of sessions varies depending on the nature and severity of your condition, your personal goals, and how your body responds to treatment. Some patients see improvement within a few sessions, while others may benefit from a longer rehabilitation program. We’ll regularly review your progress and adjust your plan accordingly.

Yes, most private health insurance plans offer cover for physiotherapy services. The amount you can claim and whether a referral is needed depends on your specific policy. We can provide itemised receipts for you to submit to your provider.

We kindly ask that you provide at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your physiotherapy appointment. This allows us to offer the time slot to other clients who may be waiting. Cancellations made less than 24 hours in advance will incur a late cancellation fee or result in the full appointment fee being charged.

Initial Assessments typically last 40 minutes, as we take a full history and perform a detailed evaluation. Follow-up sessions usually run 30 minutes, depending on your treatment needs and goals.
