How We Work

We do things differently from the typical 30-minute physio appointment.

Step 1

We Listen and Assess Thoroughly

Your first session is a full hour. We ask about your pain, what you’ve tried, and how it’s affecting your daily life. Then we do a proper hands-on and movement assessment to find the root cause.

Step 2

You Get Treated — Not Just Assessed

Most patients receive hands-on treatment in that first hour. You walk away with three things: a clear diagnosis, relief from treatment, and a written recovery plan with realistic timeframes.

Step 3

Your Whole Care Team, One Building

If your recovery needs exercise physiology, massage, dietetics, or women’s health physio — it’s all here. One set of records, one team that talks to each other about your care.

One Clinic. Everything You Need.

Most physio clinics can only offer physio. If you need massage, that’s somewhere else. Exercise physiology? Another referral. You end up repeating your story, your records don’t follow, and your recovery stalls. We set our clinic up to fix that problem.

Physiotherapy

Thorough assessment and treatment from master’s-qualified physios who take the time to work out what’s actually causing the problem. You get a clear explanation and a plan built around your goals.

Exercise Physiology

Once you’re past the acute phase, our exercise physiologists design strength and conditioning programs to keep you moving well long-term.

Psychology

Pain affects more than your body. Our psychologists work alongside your physio team to help with the mental load that comes with injury, chronic pain, and recovery.

Remedial Massage

Massage therapy that’s coordinated with your physio treatment, not something you have to organise with a different provider.

Nutrition & Dietetics

For patients where nutrition plays a role in recovery or chronic condition management, our dietitians work as part of your care team.

Hydrotherapy

Pool-based exercise for patients who find land-based movement too painful. A gentler way to rebuild strength and mobility.

How to Fund Your Treatment

We accept all major funding pathways so cost doesn’t stop you getting started:

  • Private Health Insurance — claim on the spot via HICAPS
  • Medicare (EPC Plan) — GP referral gives you up to 5 funded sessions (gap fee of $29.70 per session applies)
  • WorkCover — workplace injuries covered, we handle the paperwork
  • NDIS — approved NDIS provider for plan-managed and self-managed
  • DVA — veterans welcome, no out-of-pocket on approved claims
  • CTP (Motor Vehicle) — car accident injuries, insurer-billed

No referral is needed to book your first appointment. If you have questions about your cover, call us on (07) 3132 0898 and we’ll sort it out before you come in.

Common Questions

Do I need a referral to see a physio?

No. You can book directly without a GP referral. Our physiotherapists are qualified to assess, diagnose, and create a management plan for your condition. If we think medical input would help, we’ll coordinate with your GP or specialist.

What happens at the first appointment?

Your initial session is a full 1-hour assessment. We’ll listen to your history, assess your movement, identify what’s driving the problem, and talk through a structured treatment plan. Most patients get hands-on treatment in that first session too.

How much does it cost?

We provide a fee schedule at booking. Private health fund rebates are available on the spot via HICAPS. WorkCover, DVA, and NDIS patients may have no out-of-pocket costs on approved claims. Patients with an EPC Plan from their GP should be aware there is a gap fee of $29.70 per session.

Do you accept WorkCover, DVA, and NDIS?

Yes, all three. We handle the documentation and reporting. If you’re on a WorkCover or CTP claim, we’ll work with your insurer and employer to keep your recovery on track.

What makes your clinic different from other physios in Shailer Park?

Two things. First, every new patient gets a full 1-hour assessment instead of the standard 30 minutes. Second, we have physio, exercise physiology, massage, psychology, women’s health, and dietetics all in one building. If your recovery needs more than physio alone, we walk you down the hall instead of referring you across town.

Is there parking at the clinic?

Yes. The clinic has on-site parking on Bulwarna Street.
