What we treat
Most pain has a mechanism.
Finding it is the job.
Back pain
Acute episodes and long-standing pain. Assessment first, then a plan you can actually follow.
Neck & headaches
Neck-driven pain and tension headaches. Treatment aimed at the cause, not the symptom.
Shoulder
Rotator cuff, impingement, post-dislocation. Staged loading back to full range.
Knee
Ligament, meniscus and tendon injuries — from first steps to return to sport.
Sports injury
Injuries assessed properly, with clear criteria before you return to play.
Post-surgical rehab
Structured rehab that follows your surgeon’s protocol, week by week.
Chronic pain
Long-term pain needs a different approach: graded activity, education, honest timeframes.
Workplace injury
WorkCover and TAC claims accepted. We handle the paperwork with you.
How it works
Three sessions in, you should know exactly where you stand.
Assessment
Your first session maps the problem — history, movement testing, and a working diagnosis explained in plain language.
Treatment plan
You get a written plan: what we’ll do in the room, what you’ll do at home, and the timeframe we’re working to.
Progressive rehab
Treatment and load progress as you do. We retest against the plan, so you can see the change — not just feel it.
Manual therapy
Measured, not guessed.
No referral needed
Physiotherapists are primary practitioners — book directly.
HICAPS on the spot
Claim your health fund rebate before you leave. You pay only the gap.
WorkCover & TAC
Claims accepted with a valid claim number. Bring your insurer details.

Before you book
Do I need a referral?
No. Physiotherapists are primary practitioners, so you can book directly. A referral is only needed for Medicare-subsidised care plans — WorkCover and TAC patients just need their claim number.
What should I wear?
Comfortable clothes you can move in. Shorts help for lower-limb problems. There’s a private room if you need to change.
How long is a session?
Initial consults run longer than follow-ups so there’s time for a full assessment. Exact times and fees are shown when you book.
Can I claim on the spot?
Yes. We process health fund rebates through HICAPS at the desk — bring your card and pay only the gap.
What’s the cancellation policy?
Give us as much notice as you can and we’ll offer the time to someone else. The full policy is on your booking confirmation.
Do you treat WorkCover and TAC patients?
Yes. Bring your claim number and insurer details to your first visit and we’ll take it from there.
Ready when you are.
Same-week appointments across the week, Saturdays included.
