Questions people ask before they book
If yours isn’t here, call and ask. We don’t mind.
How much does it cost, and what can I claim back?
A first visit is 45 minutes and costs $115. Follow-ups are 30 minutes and cost $95. Longer sessions are available.
If you have health fund extras, we swipe your card and you pay only the gap, usually $30 to $60. With a GP care plan (the one that used to be called an EPC) Medicare gives you about $60 back per visit, for up to 5 visits a calendar year.
Do I need a referral from my GP?
You can generally book a private physiotherapy appointment directly. Referral and eligibility requirements vary for funded or insured appointments. Check the current requirements with your clinic and the relevant scheme.
Will it hurt?
It shouldn’t. Some treatments feel like a firm stretch or a deep massage, and you might feel a bit tender the next day, like after a workout. We always check in with you and we stop if anything feels wrong.
How soon can I be seen?
Usually today or tomorrow. We keep a few spots free each day for people in pain. Book online to see live times, or call and we’ll find one for you.
What should I bring or wear?
Comfortable clothes you can move in. Shorts for a knee or hip, a singlet for a shoulder or neck. Bring your health fund card, any scans or letters you have, and a list of your medicines if you take any.
How many visits will I need?
The clinician discusses an individual plan with you. We’ll give you an honest estimate at your first visit and we’ll never book you in for more than you need.
Ready to get moving?
Booking online takes about a minute. If you’d rather talk to someone, call and Jess on the front desk will sort you out.
