FAQs

Everything you need to know before your physiotherapy appointment.

How do I schedule an appointment?

To schedule an appointment with us, you can call us during business hours, or you can use our online appointment booking system available on our website.

Do I need a referral?

No. You can book an appointment with a physiotherapist without a referral if you're paying privately. However, if you're claiming through Medicare under a Chronic Disease Management Plan, WorkCover, DVA, or a Compulsory Third Party (CTP) claim, you may need a referral from your GP or specialist.

What does my first appointment look like?

Your first appointment begins with an assessment of your symptoms, medical history, lifestyle, and movement. We will identify the cause of your pain, explain your diagnosis, and create a personalised treatment plan. Treatment may include hands-on therapy, exercise prescription, education, and advice to help you recover as quickly and safely as possible.

How many sessions will I need?

The number of sessions depends on your condition, its severity, your recovery goals, and how your body responds to treatment. Some minor injuries improve in just a few visits, while post-operative rehabilitation or chronic conditions may require ongoing care. Your physiotherapist will discuss your expected treatment plan after your initial assessment.

What should I wear to my appointment?

Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy movement and access to the area being treated. For example, shorts are helpful for knee or leg injuries, while a singlet or sleeveless top is ideal for shoulder or neck assessments. If you have any scans, X-rays, or specialist reports, it's helpful to bring them with you.

What conditions can a physiotherapist treat?

Physiotherapists treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including back and neck pain, sports injuries, joint pain, muscle strains, tendon injuries, arthritis, post-surgical rehabilitation, workplace injuries, and chronic pain. They also help improve strength, mobility, balance, and overall physical function.
