Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a GP referral to see a physiotherapist?

No — you can book directly without a referral. If you're claiming under a Medicare Enhanced Primary Care (EPC) plan, your GP will need to provide that referral, but it's not required just to attend.

How many sessions will I need?

It depends on the condition and how long you've had it. Many acute issues improve significantly within 3–6 sessions, while chronic conditions may need an ongoing program. Your physiotherapist will give you a realistic estimate after your first assessment.

Do you treat chronic conditions like osteoarthritis, or only recent injuries?

Both. We see everything from a fresh sprain to long-standing arthritis and chronic pain, and tailor the treatment approach to the stage and nature of the condition.

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Bring any relevant referrals, scans, or specialist reports if you have them, along with comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the area being assessed.

Is musculoskeletal physiotherapy covered by Medicare or private health?

Yes. We accept Medicare EPC referrals, private health extras, DVA, WorkCover, and NDIS. We'll confirm what applies to you when you book.
