FAQs

Here are some frequently asked questions related to physiotherapy services and NDIS:

What is Physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of musculoskeletal and neuromuscular disorders. Physiotherapists use a variety of techniques such as manual therapy, exercise therapy, and electrotherapy to help improve patients' mobility, function, and quality of life.

What is NDIS?

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a government-funded program in Australia that provides support and funding for people with a permanent and significant disability. The NDIS aims to help people with disabilities achieve their goals and participate in their communities.

Can I use my NDIS funding for Physiotherapy services?

Yes, if you have an NDIS plan, you can use your funding to pay for physiotherapy services. Your physiotherapist will need to be a registered NDIS provider to be able to claim payment for their services.

What services do you offer for NDIS participants?

We offer in-home physiotherapy services for NDIS participants. Our physiotherapists are experienced in working with people with disabilities and can provide a range of services, including assessment, treatment, and advice on mobility aids and equipment.

Do you offer Physiotherapy services for private clients?

How long does a Physiotherapy session last?

A physiotherapy session typically lasts between 30-60 minutes, depending on your needs and the type of treatment you require.

Do I need a referral to see a Physiotherapist?

No, you do not need a referral to see a physiotherapist. However, if you are claiming the cost of your physiotherapy services through your private health insurance or workers' compensation, you may need a referral from your doctor.

How many sessions will I need?

The number of physiotherapy sessions you need will depend on your individual needs and the nature of your condition. Your physiotherapist will develop a treatment plan based on your goals and will provide guidance on the expected duration and frequency of your treatment.

What should I wear to my Physiotherapy appointment?

We recommend wearing comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows for easy movement. It's also a good idea to bring along any relevant medical records, such as X-rays or MRI scans, and a list of any medications you are taking.

How much does Physiotherapy cost?

The cost of physiotherapy varies depending on the type of service you require and your location. We offer competitive pricing for our services, and we can provide you with an estimate of the cost of your treatment plan after your initial assessment.
